UNESCOInscribed through Phase I (2019) and Phase II (2024) of a phased nomination process, the twelve component parts of the property are situated in the largest intertidal wetland system in the world and one of the most biologically diverse. The property supports more than 400 species of birds. It is located in the Yellow Sea Ecoregion, and is an irreplaceable hub for birds migrating along the East Asian-Australasian Flyway, its wetlands serving a unique ecological function as an indispensable stopover and staging sites during northward/southward migration. The Yellow Sea and the Gulf of Bohai are a bottleneck for many millions of migratory waterbirds – more than 10% of the total migration along the East Asian-Australasian Flyway. This property is a globally significant example of the shared natural heritage embodied in migratory birds.
