Guangang Forest Park

　　Tianjin Guangang Forest Park's planning area is located in the northern part of Dagang District, Tianjin, 40 kilometers from the central urban area of Tianjin and 20 kilometers from Tianjin Port and the Economic Development Zone. The location and transportation conditions are very favorable. The planning will integrate the advantages of current conditions and land use requirements to form a spatial structure of "one core, one axis, and five zones." It will also be divided into functional areas including a World Maritime Theme Park Resort, Wetland Eco-Recreation Zone, Presidential Farm Resort, Golf Resort, Forest Hot Spring Wellness Zone, RBD International Style Leisure Block, Forest Adventure Sports Zone, Water Sports Resort, Tourism-themed Real Estate Zone, and Ecological Landscape Corridor. The planning area will be based on the ecological environment, feature themed amusement parks as an attraction, center on composite resorts, and be supported by tourism real estate.

　　Guangang Forest Park is a wetland-type forest park, which will be constructed in three project phases and is expected to be fully completed by 2015, with a total estimated investment of 800 million yuan. It is introduced that the Guangang Forest Park tourism area is at the center of the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan triangle and the Bohai Economic Rim. Its scope extends southeast to the middle line of Bami River, west to Xipai Drainage Canal, and north to the district boundary, covering a total area of 22.85 square kilometers. Of this, the land area is 17.71 square kilometers and the water area is 5.14 square kilometers. The park features a diverse range of biological species, with over 120 types of woody and herbaceous plants across 45 families. It also provides habitat for a large number of wild rare birds, showcasing distinct characteristics of plain forests and the unique landscape of the land-sea transition zone. The core resources of this tourist attraction are its forest and wetland eco-tourism resources and leisure recreation resources represented by golf. The functional zoning of the wetland-type Guangang Forest Park includes: forest recreation zones, wetland park zones, golf and conference zones, water recreation zones, forest conservation zones, ecological residential zones, and development reserve zones.

　　This tourist attraction will focus on developing four major projects: First, a forest recreation corridor that not only serves a scenic function but also connects all forest recreation products through travel routes; second, a wetland eco-trail, where wetland walking paths and boating trails will be designed and built; third, a wetland park that showcases the beauty of natural landscapes with typical wetland scenery; and fourth, a lake-centered ecological park, which will be established on an island in the lake to host various water-based recreational activities.
