As early autumn arrives in Yancheng, east China's Jiangsu Province, herds of wild Pere David's deer frolic and forage across the Tiaozini Wetlands, while flocks of migratory birds soar overhead. Located along the East Asian–Australasian Flyway, one of the world's major migratory bird routes, it welcomes countless birds each year to rest, breed and overwinter.
The Tiaozini Wetlands, with its well-preserved environment, has become an ideal habitat for Pere David's deer and a key stopover for migratory birds.
The wetlands are designated as the core area of the "Migratory Bird Sanctuaries along the Coast of the Yellow Sea-Bohai Gulf of China (Phase I)," a site inscribed on the UNESCO World Natural Heritage List in July 2019.
