About
It is home to a stunning array of wildlife including birds, dragonflies, amphibians, mammals, reptiles, butterflies and fish!
The park includes a 10,000 sq meter Visitor's Centre, a Wetland Interactive World and a 60-hectare Wetland Reserve.
Inside the Wetland Interactive World visitors will find themed exhibition galleries, a theatre, a souvenir shop, an indoor play area (swamp adventure) and a resource centre.
The themed exhibition galleries range in size from 250 sq meters to 1,200 sq meters and showcase the importance of wetlands on biodiversity, civilization and conservation.
The park's Wetland Reserve is a man-made wetland recreating habitats specially designed for waterfowls and other wildlife. Visitors can enjoy a hands-on experience at the wetland Discovery Centre within the Reserve.
Other outside facilities include a Stream Walk, Mangrove Boardwalk and three Bird Hides that allow visitors to get up close to different habitats of various wildlife.
You can book tickets online and find out about the various tours and "get-to-know'' sessions on offer at Hong Kong Wetland Park's website. There's also information and maps detailing all the things to see and do at the park. It is recommended that you visit their website first to best plan your outing.
While touring the park, visitors should avoid contact with wild birds, their droppings and feathers. If you should come into contact with such, thoroughly wash your hands with water and liquid soap, alcohol-soaked tissue paper or alcohol-based hand wash. If you see a sick or dead wild bird, please immediately inform the Wetland Park staff who will arrange for collection for laboratory testing.
