Red Beach
Red Beach, located in Panjin City, Liaoning Province, is a unique wetland landscape formed by large areas of Suaeda salsa. From September to November every year, Suaeda salsa turns red, resembling a red ocean. Together with reed marshes and numerous rare birds, it forms a beautiful picture of the perfect integration of nature and ecology
Introduction to Scenic Spots
Red Beach is a natural ecological wonder located on the banks of Liaodong Bay, with a total area of over 200000 acres, known as the "world's red coastline". The vegetation here is lush, and the fiery red alkali grass spreads out like silk, complementing the blue sea and sky, forming a stunning scenery of "watching the sea from the red beach". The scenic area features wooden boardwalks, Lover's Island, bird watching platforms, and other landscapes that combine romantic charm with ecological value. It is a popular destination for photography, hiking, and family outings. Autumn is the best viewing season, with red grass like fire and seagulls and herons flying together, showcasing the stunning vitality of wetlands.
