What virgin forests are there in China?

China’s primeval forests include: Shennongjia Mountains, Daxinganling, Jinguang Lake Primeval Forest, Jianfengling Tropical Rainforest, and Xishuangbanna Tropical Rainforest Nature Reserve.

1. The Shennongjia Mountain Area is located on the border of Hubei, Shaanxi and Sichuan provinces, with the Yangtze River to the south and the Wudang Mountains to the north. It is where the Daba Mountains and the Qinling Mountains meet. It is also the transition zone from the subtropical zone in the south to the temperate zone in the north. zone. The area covers an area of ??3,250 square kilometers, and the main peak, Taishenongjia, is 3,300 meters high. In 1978, the state decided to establish a nature reserve in an area of ??20 square kilometers around the peaks of Shennongjia and Shennongjia, mainly to protect rare animals and plants such as golden monkeys, Davidia involucrata and forest ecosystems.

2. Daxinganling is located in the north of Heilongjiang Province and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. It is the watershed between the Inner Mongolia Plateau and the Songliao Plain. Starting from the banks of Heilongjiang in the north and reaching the upper reaches of the Xilamulun River in the south, its tropical rainforest, south subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest, rare animal and plant populations, and the entire forest ecology are priceless treasures. It is the only well-preserved, contiguous area in the world. The large area of ??tropical forest has attracted much attention at home and abroad. The Xishuangbanna tropical rainforest, located at the southern tip of Yunnan, is the most complete tropical rainforest preserved at high latitudes and high altitudes in my country. It has a unique "inversion" phenomenon of vertical plant distribution in the world.

3. Jinguang Lake primitive forest area is located in Neitian Village, Lianhua Town, Tong'an District, Xiamen City. Jinguang Lake is known as "Xishuangbanna in southern Fujian". It has a vast forest and a wide variety of wild animals and plants. The forest area The total area is 7768 acres, with the highest altitude of 845 meters. The forest area has towering ancient trees and winding paths. Being in the forest, you can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery of nature, but also enjoy the endless fun of the "forest oxygen bar". There are national first- and second-level protected plants and other woods in the area, as well as rare animals.

4. The Jianfengling Tropical Rainforest is located in the northern part of Sanya City, at the junction of the northern part of Ledong County and Dongfang City. It is a mountainous area in the west of Hainan Island on the edge of the Beibu Gulf. It is 90 kilometers away from downtown Sanya and has a total area of ??447 square kilometers. The main peak of Jianfengling is 1,412 meters above sea level. It is named after its shape like a sharp blade. In this mysterious forest, 75% of Hainan's plants and 85% of its wild animal species grow and thrive. The Jianfengling area currently preserves the largest tropical primeval forest in China, with chirping birds and fragrant flowers. The average annual temperature is 19°C-24.5°C?, the cool breeze blows in midsummer, the air is fresh, the air contains high negative ions, and the concentration of plant essence is high. It is a large, convalescent and summer resort.

5. Xishuangbanna Tropical Rainforest Nature Reserve is located in the three counties of Jinghong, Mengla and Menghai in Xishuangbanna Prefecture in southern Yunnan Province. With a total area of ??2,420.2 square kilometers, its tropical rainforest, south subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forest, rare animal and plant populations, and the entire forest ecology are priceless treasures. It is the only well-preserved area in the world. There are 8 vegetation types in the area, including higher plants. There are more than 3,500 species, accounting for about one-eighth of the higher plants in the country. Among them, 58 species are listed as rare and endangered plants under national key protection, accounting for 15% of the nationally protected plants.

Introduction to virgin forest:

Primary forest refers to a forest that has reached a very long age without significant disturbance, thus showing unique ecological characteristics. Native features include diverse tree-related structures that provide diverse wildlife habitat and increase the biodiversity of forest ecosystems. The concept of diverse tree structure includes multiple canopy layers and canopy gaps, wide variation in tree heights and diameters, diverse tree species and classes, and multiple sizes of woody debris. The largest virgin forest in the world is Canada's boreal coniferous forest, known as the great boreal forest. It not only has great ecological value, but is also the origin of many wild animals and plants. The coniferous forest stretches from Alaska to the Atlantic Ocean, covering an area 12 times the size of California. 25% of the original forests on the earth belong here. The unique topography of the coniferous forest not only provides protection for countless grizzly bears, wolves, moose and caribou, but also billions of North American waterfowl and songbirds gather here every year to mate and reproduce.
