Shuangtai Estuary Wetland

Shuangtai Estuary is a wetland landscape larger than any single viewing platform. Its reed beds and open flats provide different habitats, while nearby farms and the industrial city give conservation a practical, everyday context. Ramsar recognition concerns the wetland site; access to protected areas depends on their own management rules.
