Dongying Yellow River Estuary Wetland Ecological Park, located at the mouth of the Yellow River in The Town of Huanghekou, Kenli County, Dongying City, Shandong Province, is the first of the three major tourism projects in Dongying City. Here the wilderness is vast, the grass is green, and the rare birds of national protection can be seen everywhere in all seasons. With the most complete, extensive and abundant wetland ecosystem in China, the famous Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve is known as a paradise for birds.
Due to the interaction between the dense underground pipeline and the disorderly discharge of sewage above ground, it poses a great threat to the environment of Dongying City and destroys the wetland environment at the mouth of the Yellow River, and the municipal government is determined to improve the wetland protection system. Put forward the goal of dressing up a river, creating a scenic spot, driving a city, building a national first-line leisure resort city, and building a vibrant modern wetland city, in 2018, Shandong Dongying was rated as the first batch of international wetland cities and awarded the license.
Looking at the Dongying Yellow River Estuary Wetland Park today, there are nearly 300 species of birds. During the breeding season, thousands of red-crowned cranes, white swans, black storks, white arpeggiators, golden eagles and other rare birds fly and play, which is breathtaking.
