Canadian-born panda twins, Jia Panpan and Jia Yueyue, flew to Chengdu, capital of southwest China's Sichuan Province, early Sunday morning.
The twins will be kept in quarantine for a month at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding.
The twin cubs were born at the Toronto Zoo on Oct. 13, 2015. Their parents — female panda Er Shun and male panda Da Mao — were brought to Toronto in 2013 as part of a loan agreement between China and Canada. They will stay there until 2023.
