The wetland boasts rich natural ecological landscapes, including water forests, tidal flats with reed beds, and 17 types of tidal channel landforms and geological relics of ancient anti-tidal mounds. In Xisha Wetland, you can choose to take a leisurely stroll along the 7-kilometer wooden walkway or cruise through thousands of acres of water forests, experiencing the enchanting beauty of the wetland forest from various perspectives and in various forms.
