Ms. Choi began by highlighting that China had 41 out of the 195 UNESCO global geoparks as of 21 Mar 2024, making it the country with the highest number of geoparks in the world. She emphasised the significance of geotourism and geoparks in supporting sustainable development, noting that different geoparks in China exhibit a diverse range of geological, ecological and cultural characteristics, including granite, karst, sandstone, volcano, glacier, desert, paleontology, humanities, minerals, and ecology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ms. Choi used Wudalianchi UNESCO Global Geopark which is known for its well-preserved volcanic landforms, including various types of volcanoes, craters, lava tunnel and lava formations as an example. The geopark also features a string of five lakes known as Wudalianchi, earning it the nickname of \"Natural Volcano Museum.\" Ms. Choi highlighted the importance of geopark laws, environmentally friendly practices, and effective management in Wudalianchi Geopark. Notable initiatives included using e-vehicles, constructing wooden trails for block lava flow observation, and implementing diligent monitoring and review processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
