What comes to mind when you think of Xuzhou? If you haven't been to Xuzhou, you might still think of it as a city of "half coal ash, half dust." In fact, through its "three major transformations" in industry, urban development, and ecology, it has now become a city of "half green mountains, half lakes." If you haven't been to Xuzhou, you might still think of it as an old industrial base. But what you might not know is that it is also the "Huaihai Granary," with a grain output of over 10 billion jin for many consecutive years. As a city of champions, it has cultivated 44 people who have won 110 world championships. Immersed in its thousand-year-old cultural heritage, it is creating the "Pengcheng Seven Miles" to present a new image. Moreover, it is worth mentioning that Xuzhou's "giant" park will open, covering 106.7 hectares, and may become the "green lung" of Xuzhou! Curious friends might ask, where exactly is Xuzhou's "giant" park? What unique scenery does it have? With these questions and curiosity, let's talk about Taohuayuan Wetland Park today.
