Nestled in the heart of Chongqing Municipality’s Wushan County lies Congping Wetland – a 300-hectare ecological marvel that’ll make you rethink everything you know about China’s landscapes. 🌄 Part of the Wulipo National Nature Reserve, this high-altitude wonder sits at 1,800 meters above sea level, bordering the famed Shennongjia reserve. Talk about #NatureGoals!
In the debut episode of CGTN’s ‘Journeys in Nature: Wushan Mountains Series’, explorers are treated to misty valleys, rare flora, and crystal-clear alpine ponds that look straight out of a fantasy RPG. 🎮💧 This biodiversity hotspot isn’t just pretty – it’s a crucial habitat for endangered species like the Sichuan snub-nosed monkey and Temminck’s tragopan pheasant.
Why Young Travelers Should Care:
- 📸 Instagram-worthy vistas without the crowds
- 🌱 Prime eco-tourism spot for sustainable adventurers
- 🧠 Brain fuel for environment studies students
Pro tip: Visit during autumn when the wetland’s golden grasses contrast with evergreen forests – perfect for that ‘cottagecore meets adventure vlogger’ aesthetic. 🍂✨
