This is a natural wetland with beautiful lake bays. There are wild rice shoots, lotus, water caltrop, and water chestnut. Egrets fly in the sky, and there are often frog croaks and bird chirps. Taihu Wetland Park is an original and fashionable leisure scenic area that integrates nature and culture. It combines functions such as ecological environment, vacation and leisure, tourism and sightseeing, and popular science education.
On the basis of highlighting ‘nature, ecology, and wildness’, elements such as sightseeing, humanities, leisure, and amusement are integrated. Seven functional areas are planned and designed, including wetland fishery experience area, wetland exhibition area, wetland ecological habitat area, wetland ecological cultivation area, water town sightseeing and leisure area, wetland ecological science and education base, and original wetland protection area. They fully display the natural ecological landscape of modern water-based countryside. More than fifty bridges with different names and shapes in the scenic area are winding and connected with the five-mile wooden plank road, scattered and orderly throughout the entire wetland park. Scenic spots such as Taoyuan Family, Seven-Masted Ancient Ship, Yujitai, Hibiscus Hedge and Thatched Cottage, Peninsula Tea, Painting Boat for Guests, and Misty Waves Bringing Refreshment sometimes make people feel like opening a profound historical book, and sometimes they have the wonderful feeling of easily flipping through interesting readings about local customs and anecdotes. And scenic spots such as the Plant Knowledge Corridor Square, Endangered Plant Observation Corridor, Eight Water Immortals Scenic Area, Bird Watching Pavilion, and Wetland Habitat Island bring people into an educational park of popular science knowledge, allowing tourists to absorb ecological science knowledge and enhance the environmental protection concept of natural ecology.Opening hours: Open from 09:00 to 17:00 from January 1st to July 31st; open from 09:00 to 21:00 from August 1st to September 1st; open from 09:00 to 17:00 from September 2nd to December 31st.
