Upo Wetland in Changnyeong!

                                    Ever been to a wetland before? 

Upo Wetland is Korea's biggest natural wetland, home to many plants and animal species. The area is endless and you will be able to see so many varieties of trees, bugs, fish, birds, and plants. Let me introduce upo wetland in Changnyeong.

Changnyeong is not really the best place to travel on foot. Most of the public transportation are lacking and it is best to go by taxi or car. For those who want to take a public transportation there is a bus station right in front of the entrance.


After passing the parking lot, there is a 'Upo Wetland Information Center.' At behind of the info center you will see the entrance of Upo Wetland Cyber Ecological Park.

 
This is the Upo Wetland Cyber Ecological Park. The building is the Upo Wetland Ecosystem Pavilion where it preserves and studies the records of various wetland wild animals and exhibits them before people.

Also Upo Wetland is a great place for families and friends to tour with bike. The path are mostly made for the convenience of travelling by bike. There is a bike rental shop as well. You can see this place at the entrance as well, and it is only 3,000 won for 2 hour rental. There are stations on Upo Wetland paths where you can return these bikes.

 A Upo Wetland is written on a huge rock near the entrance.

 Here is the front of the entrance and make sure to read the

 safety notice displayed on the banners. 

For a while after passing the entrance, you will only see a long path like this. 

It will be a bit of a walk before you actually see the wetland. 

As you can see, it is a good biking path to tour around in short time.

 Just by travelling by bike it takes about 2 hours to go around the Upo Wetland. 

Finally the Upo Wetland! It is marvelous endless area~ It might seem like a land but it is all water underneath. The green algae covered all the areas.

 It was a really nice day with cool breeze and blue cloudy sky. This is the main biking trail where many couples and families come to take a walk or bike.

Right beside the biking trail, there is a beautiful farming land. 

The farmers are growing rice here as well. 

 Any photos taken here are a beauty. In fact, Upo Wetland is the hot spot for many photographers. Many wait till dawn or early morning to take a picture of the wetland.
