The first Panda House in the Arab nation’s capital officially opened to the public in Qatar’s Doha on November 17. Located at Al Khor Park near the Al Bayt Stadium, a Cup venue, Panda House will be home to Chinese giant pandas, three-year-old female Si Hai and four-year-old male Jing Jing. As the first giant pandas in the Middle East region, they have received Arabic names, Suhail for Jing Jing and Soraya for Si Hai, both meaning stars in the sky.
