The Yuncheng Swan Nature Reserve is the main wintering habitat for migratory birds along the middle reaches of China’s Yellow River in winter.
It is understood that Yuncheng originally had a swan wintering nature reserve and a Hedong Common Crane Nature Reserve. The newly established wetland nature reserve will merge the two and expand upon them. Once completed, the reserve will cover an area of over 79,800 hectares, making it larger than other nature reserves in Shanxi Province such as Manghe and Pangquangou, and becoming the largest wetland nature reserve in the province. Within the newly established wetland nature reserve, approximately 200 species of migratory birds will make their home here, turning it into a paradise for them to enjoy the winter.
