Starting this August, internet users around the world will be able to watch live round-the-clock broadcast of giant pandas living in a breeding centre in southwest China's Sichuan province.

A total of 28 high definition video cameras have been installed in the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding to record the daily activities of more than 80 giant pandas living there, officials told Xinhua.

Visitors to the "Giant panda channel" or ipanda.com can choose from six feeds, including "garden for adult pandas", "kindergarten", "nursery for twins", "mother and child playground", "No.1 Villa" and "Featured" according to their own preference.

 

The website started posting video clips June 24 as a test and has since attracted nearly 15,000 visitors.

Many internet users have expressed their wish to see the giant pandas in person after watching the video clips.
