Description

Discover the beauty of Xixi National Wetland Park in Hangzhou with an entry ticket. Explore China's first and only national wetland park and see its diverse wildlife and scenic waterways.
Hangzhou Xixi National Wetland Park is located in the western part of Hangzhou city, just 5 kilometers from West Lake and approximately 6 kilometers from Wulinmen, the city center. It is China's first and only national wetland park that integrates urban wetland, agricultural wetland, and cultural wetland into one. In 2009, it was inscribed on the List of Wetlands of International Importance (Ramsar Convention) and was designated as a National 5A-Level Tourist Attraction.

Xixi, historically known as Hezhu, is one of Hangzhou's "Three Xis" – alongside West Lake (Xi Hu) and Xiling (Xiling Seal Society). It carries the timeless saying: "Xixi, please stay." Historically covering approximately 60 square kilometers, the currently protected wetland spans about 11.5 square kilometers, of which roughly 70% is water – rivers, ponds, lakes, and marshes. Its waterways branch like a labyrinth, creating the poetic scene of "a winding stream, a wisp of mist" (一曲溪流一曲烟).

Ecological & Cultural Value
Xixi Wetland is hailed as the "Kidney of Hangzhou" and the "Green Lungs of Paradise," playing an irreplaceable role in water conservation, water purification, and biodiversity preservation. Through sustained conservation efforts, water quality has risen from inferior Class V (the lowest grade) to overall Class III, with core areas reaching Class II. As of the end of 2024, the park is home to 971 species of vascular plants, 918 species of insects, and 224 species of birds.

Xixi's history traces back to the Han and Jin dynasties, developed through the Tang and Song, and flourished in the Ming and Qing. It embodies five thematic cultural elements: "Buddhist spirituality, reclusion, folk customs, leisure, and wilderness." Its intangible cultural heritage includes the Dragon Boat Festival races, Xixi Yue Opera, water-town wedding customs, and Xixi martial arts. In recent years, the newly created neo-classical immersive drama Xixi • Water Margin has pioneered a "performance as scenic area" model, featuring 25 professional actors and 108 minutes of immersive storytelling, where audiences can choose their own narrative paths and perform alongside the actors.
