Dajiu Lake Wetland Park & The Assassin

Tucked in Shennongjia UNESCO Global Geopark, Central China's Hubei province, the Dajiu Lake Wetland Park boasts mesmerizing sceneries. It is a rare subalpine peat marsh wetland in the world’s middle latitude, at an altitude of over 1,730 meters and with a total area of 20,000 hectares.

Known as “Hulun Buirof Hubei province”, it is home to nine lakes on the plateau and lush meadows. In the wetland park, there are extensive alpine meadows, wetland ferns, and rare animals, such as storks, cranes, and sika deer, which are valuable for scientific research.
