Guandu Nature Park Introduction
Guandu Nature Park is located at the confluence of the Tamsui River and the Keelung River, and has historically been an important habitat for migratory birds. After more than a decade of efforts by conservationists, Guandu Nature Park was established in 1996. Since December 1, 2001, the park has been managed by the Taipei City Government in collaboration with the Taipei Wild Bird Society. The main purpose of Guandu Nature Park is to conserve the wetland environment of Guandu, restore the wetland landscape, revive the indigenous species of the wetland, and educate the public about Guandu Wetlands. To help the public better understand wetlands, the park frequently holds various environmental education activities and exhibitions, such as themed exhibitions, weekend lectures, parent-child DIY workshops, and camps, and assists schools in diverse environmental education programs like stationed explanations and outdoor teaching. In addition to preserving the natural wetland environment, it also provides citizens and tourists a great place to experience nature and enjoy leisure time during weekends.
