Jiulongshan Mangrove National Wetland Park is located in Tiaofeng Town, Leizhou City, Guangdong Province, and was approved by the State Forestry Administration in 2009. This is the first national wetland park named after mangroves in China. The park covers an area of 1270.8 hectares, of which wetlands account for 90.5%. Rich in tourism resources, beautiful natural landscape and profound cultural accumulation.
-Tourism resources:
-Shu Mei: Mangroves are the main vegetation types in the park, covering an area of 65,438+027.7 hectares. Mangroves, known as "marine forests", are a peculiar plant community that can grow in tropical and subtropical bays, estuaries and beaches. They are looming with the tide, just like water fairies. The reeds growing along the river in the park are full of vitality and flutter with the wind, making the mangrove forest more moving. In addition, there are rare semi-mangrove plants such as Yu Rui and Leucaena leucocephala in the park, among which Yu Rui is the first record in Chinese mainland except Hainan and Taiwan Province provinces.
-Water performance: The Zhanyan River, which runs through the park, is beautiful and charming, with nine bends and eighteen bends. The river is clear and transparent, flowing and flowing into the sea. The waterfall in the mountain stream falls vertically along the wall. Although the water potential is not big, it gurgles down and splashes white water droplets, making people feel like they are in a fairyland. Thanks to the moisture of the stream spring, Jiulong Mountain is beautiful and full of green eyes.
-Stonemonster: There are many strange stones near the waterfall in the park. Under the shade of Maolin, the stone pillars are arranged layer by layer, like a natural fence, orderly. These columnar stones are basalts formed after volcanic eruption, which are unique volcanic landforms in Leizhou Peninsula and have high tourism ornamental value and geological research value.
-Abundant birds: under the blue sky and white clouds, under the canopy of the mangrove forest in Jiulong Mountain, birds such as little egrets, great egrets, pond herons and night herons can be seen from time to time. They either perch on the tree head, make waves, or chase and play, and birds come and go. Together with mangroves, these birds weave the magnificent landscape of the park.
—— Miao Yan: Jiulong Mountain is a treasure trove of geomantic omen and rich in Buddhist culture. The Baolin Temple built on the mountain in the park includes "the first bell in western Guangdong", "the first drum in western Guangdong", 500 Luohan statues and 500 Luohan statues. At present, it is a large-scale temple in western Guangdong, which is solemn and majestic, with extraordinary momentum and strong incense all the year round.
