The Migratory Bird Sanctuaries, a UNESCO World Heritage site in China, recognized in 2019, are critical coastal wetlands along the Yellow Sea, protecting key stopovers for millions of migratory birds on the East Asian-Australasian Flyway. Featuring tidal flats and marshes, they shelter endangered species like the spoon-billed sandpiper amid a biodiverse ecosystem shaped by sediment flows. This network reflects China’s ecological significance, safeguarding a global avian migration route and a fragile natural heritage.
