They were born in August and have already taken Berlin by storm. But only now have the two panda cubs been given their names – Leni and Lotti, or in Chinese Meng Hao and Meng Tian.

The German names are a tribute to Berlin-born film and music star Marlene Dietrich and the Charlottenburg district in central Berlin, while the Chinese names mean Beautiful Dreams and Sweet Dreams, respectively.

Those who want to see the panda cubs currently only have one hour a day to do so, when one of them is on display. It won't be until late January that they will be able to be visited together with mom Meng Meng.

The twins are the second pair of panda cubs born in Germany, after their siblings Pit and Paule, who were born in 2019 and now live in China.
