Sand is probably the first thing that
comes to mind when thinking about beach. However, this is not the case
with the Panjin Red Beach in China, which is, actually, red, and not
covered in sand at all. Such phenomena is caused by a type of sea weed Sueda. It starts growing during April and May, then stays green during the summer, but starts turning vividly red in autumn.
The Red Beach is located in the biggest
wetland and reed marsh in the world, and actually hosts the most
completed ecosystem that can be found: the area has become home to more
than 260 kinds of birds and 399 kinds of wild animals. You can find the
endangered Crown Cranes and Black Beaked Gulls there, which is why the
area is even called “home of the cranes”.
