Chaobai National Wetland Park, occupying over 5,500 hectares (13,590 acres), is home to 114 species of wild plants and 286 different kinds of wild animals.

As a crucial pit-stop for migratory waterbirds on the East Asia-Australia Flyway, this wetland park offers a comfortable environment and ample food for thousands of such birds each year. It is also a haven for herons and egrets, with these elegant wading birds making this their home for about six months for breeding.
