Datong Sanggan River National Wetland Park

Datong Sanggan River National Wetland Park is a national-level wetland park.

Datong Sanggan River National Wetland Park is located in the southern part of the county, radiating outward from the Sanggan River as its center. It covers a wetland area of 3,933.14 hectares, with a wetland ratio of 83.37%. The park includes three major types of wetlands: riverine wetlands, marsh wetlands, and artificial wetlands; specifically, it consists of six wetland subtypes: permanent river wetlands, floodplain wetlands, herbaceous marsh wetlands, shrub marsh wetlands, reservoir and pond wetlands, and irrigation canal wetlands. The park is planned to be developed into a provincial-level wetland science education and publicity demonstration base, an ecotourism destination, and an ecological leisure and wellness retreat.

By the end of 2015, Datong Sanggan River National Wetland Park officially passed the expert review organized by the State Forestry Administration and was designated as a National Wetland Park Pilot Site.
