Jiayin Maolan River Estuary National Wetland Park

Jiayin Maolan River Estuary National Wetland Park is a national-level wetland park.

Yichun Maolan River Estuary National Wetland Park is located in Xiangyang Township, Jiayin County, Yichun City, covering a total area of 1,229 hectares. It centers around a tributary of the Heilongjiang River within the park boundaries, encompassing the forests, swamps, tidal flats along both sides of the river, as well as a section of the Maolan River channel where it flows into the Heilongjiang. The park boasts abundant and diverse resources, categorized into two major types — riverine wetlands and swamp wetlands — and further divided into three specific wetland types: permanent riverine wetlands, herbaceous swamp wetlands, and shrub swamp wetlands. The park features an intricate network of waterways, dense shrub vegetation, lush swamp flora, stunning natural landscapes, and a well-developed wetland ecosystem that remains in pristine condition. It also serves as a habitat for precious bird species such as the grey heron and great egret. Currently, the park has built one tourism and dining service center, two observation decks, and offers fishing activities.
