Giant panda twins Qinxiu and Qinmei have been filmed enjoying their leisurely time as they joyfully frolicked, ran, and rolled in the snow at Qinling Wildlife Park in Xi'an City, northwest China's Shaanxi Province, on Wednesday.

One of the twin pandas was seen rolling in the snow with a bamboo stick or playing with a ball like a professional football player. Climbing and sliding down the slide were games they never tire of playing.

When they got tired, they had some fresh bamboo in the winter wonderland.

According to the park, Qinxiu and Qinmei were born in August 2020 and are now in a stage of boundless energy.
