位于青海省南部的三江源地区是长江、黄河、澜沧江的发源地,也是亚洲重要的水源涵养区和生态安全屏障。上世纪末受过度放牧及气候变化等因素影响,这一地区发生生态退化。2005年,国家于此设立三江源自然保护区,启动应急式生态恢复治理。2016年4月13日,我国首个国家公园试点在三江源正式启动。 Located in the southern part of Qinghai Province, the Three Rivers Region is the birthplace of the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Lancang River. It is also an important water conservation area and ecological safety barrier in Asia. Affected by factors such as over grazing and climate change at the end of last century, ecological degeneration took place in this area. In 2005, the state set up Sanjiangyuan Nature Reserve here and started the emergency ecological restoration and management. On April 13, 2016, the pilot of the first national park in China officially started in Sanjiangyuan.
