Guandu Nature Park Introduction
Guandu Nature Park is located at the confluence of the Tamsui River and the Keelung River, and has been an important habitat for migratory birds since ancient times. After more than a decade of efforts by various conservationists, Guandu Nature Park was established in 1996. As of December 1, 2001, the park has been managed by the Taipei City Government through the Taipei Wild Bird Society. The main purpose of Guandu Nature Park is to conserve the wetland environment, restore the landscape of Guandu Wetlands, reclaim the heritage of the indigenous peoples of the wetlands, and educate the public about Guandu Wetlands. To enhance public understanding of wetlands, the park regularly organizes a variety of environmental education activities and exhibits, such as themed exhibitions, weekend lectures, parent-child DIY classrooms, and camps, and supports schools in conducting diverse environmental education initiatives, including guided tours and outdoor teaching. In addition to maintaining the natural wetland environment, it also provides a great place for citizens and tourists to experience nature and relax on weekends.
