Beizhen Xinli Lake Wetland Park

Beizhen Xinli Lake Wetland Park is a national wetland park.

Beizhen Xinli Lake Wetland Park in Liaoning is located within Xinli Farm in the southeastern part of Beizhen City, covering a total area of 727.98 hectares, of which 684.72 hectares are wetlands, accounting for a wetland ratio of 94.06%. It is divided into five functional zones: wetland conservation area, restoration and reconstruction area, education and exhibition area, rational utilization area, and management service area.

This wetland is a typical reservoir-type wetland with abundant wetland resources and profound cultural heritage. It serves as an important stopover site along the East Asian–Australasian Flyway for migratory waterbirds, holding significant conservation and scientific research value. It was promoted to a provincial-level wetland park in early 2014.

The wetland park is formed by the convergence of the Yangchang River and the Raoyang River, both tributaries of the Liaohe River system. It is an important component of the Liaohe River wetland ecosystem and serves as an ecological corridor and key node within the Liaohe River Delta and Shuangtai Estuary International Important Wetland Network. Additionally, the wetland plays a crucial role in flood control and providing water supply for surrounding farmlands. It is of great importance for ensuring the water ecological security of the Liaohe River basin, maintaining regional ecological balance, and promoting sustainable development.
