************************************************************
Visitors to a roving exhibition organised by Hong Kong Wetland Park will have a chance to learn more about the fascinating world of wetlands and appreciate the complex ecological webs that wetlands support.
The roving exhibition, titled "Wetlands Everywhere", will be held from tomorrow (April 2) to early May at four shopping centres under The Link. It introduces the intricate relationship between water, wetlands and human survival, with an emphasis on the various benefits of wetlands such as sustaining a rich biodiversity by providing breeding grounds and habitats for many animals and plants.
The Wetland Park mascots Miss Crocodile Pui Pui and Mr Fiddler Crab will greet visitors at the exhibition. From now to May 30, visitors can redeem a Wetland Park 5th anniversary notepad and pen set at the Park upon presenting a photo taken with either of the characters.
Visitors are also invited to join DIY origami and badge-making workshops and bring home some handmade tokens that will remind them of the wonder of wetlands and the importance of nature conservation.
The roving exhibition will be held at the following dates and venues:
April 2 and 3 G/F, Phase 1, Chung Fu Plaza,
Tin Shui Wai
April 9 and 10 1/F, Lok Fu Plaza
April 16 and 17 G/F, East Wing, Hau Tak Shopping
Centre, Tseung Kwan O
May 7 and 8 Atrium, 1/F, Hing Wah Plaza,

Photo opportunities with the Wetland Park mascots and the DIY workshops will be available from 11am to 5pm. Visitors who apply for an annual, half-year or family pass at the roving exhibition will receive a limited edition soft toy of "HKWP x Crayon Shinchan" when they collect their pass at the Park. All souvenirs are available on a first-come, first-served basis while stocks last.
