The national wetland park near the estuary of Minjiang River is well under construction. Now that a roof has been put up on the wetland museum, Gurong Street is open to the public and plank roads in the wetlands are being designed.
Located at the south side of the Wetland Natural Reserve at the Minjiang estuary, the park covers an area of 4227 mu, or 28.18 million square meters. It is both the largest and the only national wetland park in Fujian Province. It is expected to be completed by 2015.
The museum is designed to show the progress of local wetland protection and serves as a base for research and specimen collection. Its interior decoration will start soon and is scheduled to finish by the end of this year.
In addition, the park will also be equipped with three telescopes.The bird observers are allowed to have a much closer contact with migratory birds resting in the estuary. Gurong Street, on the other hand, shows the public ancient cultures originating in Fuzhou.Visitors also can walk through the plank road to observe fiddler crabs and other creatures.
