About Yancheng Wetland Rare Birds Reserve Visitor Area
The rescue and breeding centre includes facilities for rearing, training and exercising cranes. Birds seen in this managed setting belong to a different viewing experience from wild migrants using the wider coastal habitat. The crane museum explains the species in the context of the Yellow Sea wetlands, while a boardwalk runs through salt-tolerant coastal vegetation.
The human history of conservation is represented by Xu Xiujuan, who worked on crane breeding and care at Yancheng. Her memorial island and interpretation space add a personal story to the landscape.
