The Ten-Mile River Beach plays a crucial role in the wetland ecosystem, serving functions such as water retention, flood control, climate regulation, and environmental improvement. The area is a treasure trove of biological resources, harboring seven nationally and provincially protected plant species, including camphor, beech, sandalwood, submerged sea cabbage flower, ginkgo, peony, and Eucommia. Additionally, it is home to five nationally protected wildlife species, namely the Chinese giant salamander (locally known as “baby fish”), peregrine falcon, red falcon, rock carp, and spotted golden-line barbel. The picturesque landscape of the Ten-Mile River Beach is characterized by surrounded peaks, bamboo-lined shores, scattered islets, murmuring waterfalls, and vibrant aquatic life. Visitors can also enjoy cultural landmarks such as water wheels, mills, granaries, and more.
