Tamsui District, New Taipei City
Mangrove Ecocenter
The Mangrove Ecocenter is small but beautiful. Inside the ecocenter, there are still displays and a multimedia space. We use pictures, posters, lightboxes and many other audio-visual tools to introduce the star species of the mangrove-- kandelia, as well as the ecosystems of fiddler crabs, mudskippers and water birds. In addition, there is an observatory in which you can observe the reserve at a close distance. Through the observatory window with excellent views, you can see the spectacular mangrove, Tamsui River, Guanyin Mountain, and bright red Guandu Bridge.

Ramps for the disabled are set up inside and outside the museum to make it easier for disabled visitors to integrate into the museum environment. The Mangrove Ecological Education Center is located at a key transportation hub for scenic spots in the Tamsui area. It provides tourists with high-quality introductions to scenic spots, ecotourism, and exhibitions at the Mangrove Ecological Education Center, allowing tourists to more conveniently learn about the rich ecological resources around them. We also hope that tourists can go there to experience it for themselves, build awareness of land identity, and jointly protect the natural ecology.

The wooden boardwalk built along the edge of the mangrove ecological reserve is an important site for planning and integrating environmental ecology and educational resources. Strolling along the quiet mangrove ecological trail allows tourists or local people to experience the ecological beauty of the forest and the dynamic and static creatures under the forest. The Mangrove Ecological Education Center, which has various diverse contents, hopes that the public will be inspired to care about the environment during their visit to nature, and then participate in nature protection actions to achieve sustainable management of natural ecology.

I love mangroves
This area introduces the history of the Tamsui River Mangrove Nature Reserve. In 1986, the Ministry of Agriculture announced this area as a nature reserve in accordance with the "Cultural Heritage Preservation Law", with an area of 76 hectares. The protected objects include the Kandelia forest and the various creatures distributed in it. In addition, the economic and non-economic benefits of mangroves are explained, and it is introduced that in addition to having a natural and rich biodiversity environment, mangroves have many other functions, including ecological conservation, bank protection and flood prevention, water storage and purification, economic production, education and recreation.
