Mangrove Ecosystem Education Center Introduction
The Mangrove Ecological Education Center is currently under construction and is temporarily closed to the public. This small yet beautiful ecological education center features various types of indoor exhibition spaces, including static displays and multimedia audiovisual areas. It utilizes graphics, posters, light boxes, and multimedia to introduce the growth process of the iconic mangrove species, Avicennia marina, as well as the ecology of mudskippers, fiddler crabs, and water birds found in the mangrove forest. There is also a viewing platform for close observation of the reserve, and through excellent viewing windows, visitors can enjoy the spectacular scenery of the extensive mangrove landscape, the estuarine view of the Tamsui River, the mountains of Guanyin, and the striking red Guandu Bridge. Located adjacent to the Tamsui Mangrove Nature Reserve, it can be accessed from the second floor of the Hongshulin MRT Station, allowing for close observation of the mangrove ecological environment. Reservations can be made in advance to enter the outdoor ecological trail with a guide, where visitors can personally experience the mangrove ecosystem and get close to water birds, intertidal organisms, and various lively estuarine species. Here, visitors can get a close-up view of the largest pure Avicennia marina forest in the world.
