Zhanjiang: An ideal habitat for egrets

Welcome to Zhanjiang, the "city of mangroves" in South China’s Guangdong province. With its long coastline and lush, green mangroves, Zhanjiang is an ideal, and safe, habitat for egrets.

Egrets require a healthy living environment with access to abundant clean water, making them a "hard indicator" of ecological quality. Because of this, they have earned the title of “ecological birds”.

These wonderful creatures are a unique part of the harbor and bay scenery in Zhanjiang and are beloved by residents and our partners in protecting the coast.
