Tucheng District Indigenous Peoples Ecological Park Introduction
Located on Yongning Road in Tucheng District, there is a hidden gem called the Indigenous Peoples Ecological Park. This area was formerly a site of the Haishan Coal Mine, which was rich in mineral resources during the 1970s. Many indigenous people worked in the mines, leaving their homes and coming to Tucheng to strive for a better life, resulting in a wealth of mining stories among the indigenous community. In 1993, it was designated as an indigenous reserve, and in 2005 it was developed into an ecological park. The park features scenic walkways, ecological ponds, as well as indigenous wooden pavilions and ancestral spirit houses, all reflecting indigenous themes interwoven with natural ecology. The park’s design emphasizes natural ecology and preserves the natural landscape of the mountains and forests, providing spaces for rest, ecological ponds, scenic paths, and indigenous wooden pavilions.
