Japan: Giant Panda from Ueno Zoo

Last Thursday I got two postcards: one from Japan and one from Singapore.

The card from Japan shows a Giant Panda from the Ueno Zoo. The Ueno Zoo is a zoo in Tokyo. It was opened in 1882 and is thus the oldest zoo in Japan. Since 1972 it is home to Giant Pandas. The current pair, Līlī (male) and Shinshin (female), arrived in the zoo in 2011.


With a nice stamp:
Astronomical Worlds (from set of ten) (issued 05-02-2020)
with First Day Special Postmark



Thank You very much Keiko!
