Xixi National Wetland Park, Protected wetland area in Hangzhou, China.

The park spans 10 square kilometers with six rivers forming a network of streams, ponds, and lakes covering 70 percent of the total area.

The wetland started taking shape during the Liangzhu Culture period over 4000 years ago and developed into settlements during the Tang Dynasty around 618 CE.

The park contains four ancient villages preserving traditional practices such as silkworm cultivation, silk production, and the original site of Chinese South Opera.

Located 20 kilometers from downtown Hangzhou, the park features three main causeways connecting attractions like Hazy Fisher Village and Xixi Plum Villa.

The park supports 221 plant species and 89 bird species, representing half of all bird varieties found in Hangzhou.
