Nansha Wetland Park

Nansha Wetland Park

Nansha Wetland Park is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction.

The Nansha Wetland Scenic Area is located on the western bank of the Pearl River estuary, featuring clear blue waters, azure skies, and lush greenery. The wetland is planted with large areas of over ten species of mangroves and reeds, attracting various bird species to thrive in this paradise, creating a rare bird haven in the Pearl River Delta.

Every winter, tens of thousands of rosy starlings fly here from the north for the season, and more than 152 species numbering in the hundreds of thousands of birds inhabit and forage in the area, including the very rare black-faced spoonbill, Eurasian spoonbill, and black-winged stilt. Visitors can enjoy the poetic scenery of “meandering waters through reed marshes, birds resting in mangroves, vast lotus blossoms in full bloom, and humans and birds sharing joyful moments together.”

It is an oasis rising from the sea and serves as an important port in Guangzhou’s “southern expansion,” playing a key role in the Nansha District’s harbor industry, logistics, and other sectors...
