Located in Huizhou District in Huangshan, east China's Anhui Province, Xixinan Village is an ancient village along the Fengle River. It is known by the naturally formed wingnut wetland nearby. The wingnut wetland is like a green Xanadu, providing a habitat for many animals. Black-winged stilts and egrets are very alert by nature, but they show up frequently in this village. Even the rare Asian paradise flycatchers come a long way from Southeast Asia to settle and breed for a month or two. Check the video to learn more about the green Xanadu.
