Xiaobaihe Wetland
小白河湿地
A section of the national wetland park on the north bank of the Yellow River, where water, reeds and migratory birds come together, and sunsets over the river make for great photos.
Xiaobaihe Wetland is located in the southern part of Jiuyuan District, on the north bank of the Yellow River, and forms part of the Baotou Yellow River National Wetland Park. It is a lake wetland formed by an old river channel and tidal flats, with open waters and dense reeds and cattails. In spring and autumn, large numbers of migratory birds such as grey cranes, swans and wild ducks rest here, and lotus flowers bloom in summer. The wetland has boardwalks, birdwatching platforms and cycling paths, and visitors can watch the sunset from the Yellow River embankment. Admission is free, and a visit takes about 1.5 hours. The wetland is about 15 km from Kundulun District, reached by car or taxi, and can be combined with the Yellow River Scenic Park and the G210 Yellow River Bridge.
