Taoyuan Guanxin Algal Reefs Ecosystem Wildlife Refuge, Marine wildlife refuge in Taoyuan, Taiwan.
The protected area spans 315 hectares along the northwestern coast of Taiwan, featuring extensive reefs formed by red algae and marine organisms.
The Guanxin Algal Reefs have developed over 4000 years, creating a natural structure that provides shelter for multiple marine species in the region.
Educational programs at the refuge center inform visitors about marine conservation methods and the ecological importance of algal reef preservation.
The refuge divides into three distinct zones - core, buffer, and sustainable use - each with specific regulations for visitors and researchers.
These algal reefs represent the largest and most complete formation of their type in Taiwan, supporting a rich variety of coastal wildlife.
