Covering a total area of 685,000 square meters, including about 500,000 square meters of water, the OCT Wetland Park has nearly 50,000 square meters of mangrove wetland. It serves as an important stopover and habitat for migratory birds during the wintertime. Tens of thousands of migratory birds, including the endangered black-faced spoonbills, are visible in the park. The park was officially rated a national-level wetland park Dec. 25 last year.(SD News)
