Taipei Zoo held a welcoming ceremony on Wednesday morning for its newest residents -- a pair of giant pandas from the Chinese mainland.

Taipei Zoo held a welcoming ceremony on Wednesday morning  for its newest residents -- a pair of giant pandas from  the Chinese mainland.

Taipei Zoo spokesman said that the 4-year-old pandas, Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan, are "getting on well in their new environment" and are in good physical and psychological condition.

The zoo will change the mix of the pandas' food, gradually reducing the amount from the mainland while increasing that of Taiwan's home-grown bamboo, so they will adapt to their new home.
