About Sanyang Wetlands

Ougan citrus groves connect the wetland with local farming, while old banyan trees, pavilions and landings mark former island communities. The restored gateways and wells add a human scale to the ecological setting. Follow the public waterside paths and bridge connections, choosing a limited loop rather than assuming every island is connected by a continuous walking route.

What to look for

  • Ougan groves preserve the wetland’s distinctive cultivated landscape.
  • Banyan trees, pavilions, old wells and landings reveal the former settlement pattern.

The surrounding area

Southern Zhejiang's distinct urban and commercial life, well beyond a short Hangzhou detour.
