Xixi National Wetland Park

Xixi National Wetland Park (Chinese: 西溪国家湿地公园) is the first and only national wetland park in China,

located at the west part of Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, a total of 10.64 square kilometers (26,300

of a water village, featuring silkworm feeding and silk production.

Description

Is famous for the scenery of willow haze, mist and smoke from kitchen chimneys.

Seems like an island floating on water—it’s the origin of

the name “ anchorage”.

Gains its reputation from white bulrush flowers, which blossom

in winter and dance in the sky, similar to snow in winter.

Can only be reached by boat, and is the site of the annual Dragon Boat Contest.

Was once famous collector Fen Mengzhen’s second house in the late Ming Dynasty,

recording the artistic life of “ lying on water and tasting tea”.

Has a taste of eremitic sentiment, because the plum is the symbol of

the hermit in Chinese culture.

Is concealed in the plum and bamboo bosks, where poets met in

the Qing Dynasty.

Is the place for collecting books and reading, with the west part

“ Blue Brook Study” and the east part “ Book Possession”.

Xixi National Wetland Park

Situated in the western part of Hangzhou, less than 5km from West Lake, Xixi National Wetland Park is

a rare urban wetland. With rich ecological resources, simple natural landscape and profound

culture, Xixi is known as one of the Three "Xi's" along with Xihu (West Lake) and Xiling (the Seal

Engravers' Society). It is the first and only wetland park in China combining urban life, farming

and culture. Xixi has not only broad open views, but also a variety of water views. Warm and

humid, the area enjoys a comfortable climate featuring abundant precipitation and four distinct

seasons.

Three Causeway and Ten Sights

The natural and human landscape in Xixi are grouped into three causeways and ten sights: The

three causeways are Causeway Fu, Causeway Lu and Causeway Shou, as in Chinese, the three

words fu, lu and shou carry the meaning of fortune, prosperity and longevity. Causeway Fu is

2,300m long and 7m wide, stretching through the park from south to north. Across the bank

span six bridges with the Chinese character "fu". Causeway Lu is 1,600m long and 7m wide,

stretching through the core reserve area from west to east. It connects the ecological

arboretum with the major scientific research project of the wetland and serves as an ecological

bank. With a total length of 3,600m and a width of 4.5m, Causeway Shou is the longest of the

three, stretching from south to north. Crisscrossing waterways and ancient trees form an

ecological landscape.

The ten sights are Qiuxue Hut, the best scenery of Xixi and the sight that can be reached by

boat only; Water Mirroring Red Persimmons; Exhibition of Dragon Boat Culture; Lotus Flower

Eco-Reserve Area, the main area for bird-watching; Charm of Hong's Villa, the living place of

the Hongs, which fostered a group of celebrities; Boat-rowing in the Moonlight, Fog and Water

Fishing Village, a tourist center when one can enjoy local delicacies; Xixi Plum Villa, home to

more plum trees and famed for its plum blossoms; Gao's Villa, and Music Appreciation in

Hezhu.

Aesthetic Features of Xixi

Experts claim Xixi has four distinct aesthetic features: coldness, wildness, simplicity and

elegance. Coldness suggests quietude as it is a tranquil place in a noisy city; wildness connotes

nature as this is a pure land in human society; simplicity means plainness or the philosophy of

'back to nature' and elegance relates to the gathering of literary figures and artists. Thanks to

its picturesque waterways and rural landscapes, Xixi has always been an ideal location for

artists and writers to produce poems, calligraphy, paintings and epigraphy.

Dragon Boat Contest

It is said that Emperor Qianlong (1736-1795) saw a dragon boat race when he came to visit

southern China. With great joy, he called it the Dragon Boat Contest. In 2008, the dragon boat

contest in Wuchang was included in the extended catalog of the first group of national

intangible cultural heritage as a component of traditional Dragon Boat Festival. Tourists can

watch the dragon boat contest and experience the 5,000 year old dragon boat culture through

the exhibition.

Tips: 1. As an ecological park, Xixi can only accept 3,000 tourists in a single day. Reservation

is advised.

2. The land ways are complex and unsignposted. It's easy to get lost. Be careful.
