Nanjing is one of the few large cities in China where wild Yangtze finless porpoises stably inhabit in the city center. Yangtze finless porpoises can be seen for nearly six months every year. In autumn and winter, Nanjing enters the ‘best season for watching finless porpoises’. So, where are the places where it is easier to see finless porpoises? Let’s take a look! Yuzui Wetland Park: Located at the confluence of the Yangtze River, Jiajiang River and Qinhuai New River, there is a green wetland with a pointed shape, resembling a fish mouth. This is a good place for bird watching and watching finless porpoises, and also a good place to enjoy the river breeze and sunset.
Yangtze Smile Station: It is a viewing spot for Nanjing finless porpoises and also an excellent riverside viewing and leisure check-in point. Here, citizens and tourists can also visit the small shop of finless porpoise cultural and creative products and take some lovely finless porpoise cultural and creative products home. Zhongshan Wharf: At Zhongshan Wharf, with only a two-yuan ferry ticket, you can take a ferry from here and catch a beautiful orange sea against the romantic sunset. In this beautiful scenery, there is also a possibility of encountering finless porpoises. Xiaguan Train Theme Park: From June to September this year, three baby finless porpoises were born and grew up in Xiaguan Train Theme Park. This is the first train passenger station in Nanjing’s history. There are finless porpoises living in the river water, and there are ‘cafes on trains’ and ‘bookstores in old carriages’ on the river bank, which is very pleasant!Watching Yangtze Finless Porpoises in Nanjing
