孝(xiao)河(he)濕地是山(shan)西(xi)省2014年轉(zhuan)型綜改重(zhong)大(da)(da)(da)項目之一,也(ye)是山(shan)西(xi)省轉(zhuan)型綜改的(de)標(biao)桿工程,它位于市區西(xi)南部,東(dong)起張(zhang)家莊水庫大(da)(da)(da)壩,西(xi)至白壁關大(da)(da)(da)橋,南至景(jing)觀(guan)南路及沿河(he)岸景(jing)觀(guan)小路,北至時(shi)代(dai)大(da)(da)(da)道。規劃(hua)總(zong)面(mian)積5.47平方公(gong)(gong)里(li)(li),其中水域面(mian)積約3.28平方公(gong)(gong)里(li)(li)。目前,孝(xiao)汾大(da)(da)(da)橋西(xi)區已開放,面(mian)積約2.4平方公(gong)(gong)里(li)(li)。孝(xiao)河(he)濕地屬黃土高(gao)原典型的(de)次(ci)生(sheng)濕地,是國內(nei)少有(you)的(de)集(ji)區域水利、城市濕地、生(sheng)態文(wen)化、民俗景(jing)點于一體(ti)的(de)主題濕地公(gong)(gong)園。
孝(xiao)河濕(shi)地(di)(di)之勝,獨(du)在(zai)于水(shui)。水(shui)是濕(shi)地(di)(di)的靈魂(hun)。浩淼的水(shui)面,優美(mei)的景(jing)觀(guan),清新的空氣,河湖(hu)(hu)水(shui)系相(xiang)連,縱橫交錯,園內65%以上(shang)的面積是湖(hu)(hu)泊(bo)、池塘、河港、湖(hu)(hu)漾(yang)和沼澤等水(shui)域,正所謂“一曲(qu)溪(xi)流一曲(qu)煙、處(chu)處(chu)湖(hu)(hu)泊(bo)處(chu)處(chu)景(jing)”,夾雜(za)眾多(duo)的港汊(cha)和魚鱗狀池塘,形成(cheng)濕(shi)地(di)(di)獨(du)特的濕(shi)地(di)(di)景(jing)觀(guan)。
孝河濕(shi)(shi)地(di)(di)之重,重在生(sheng)態(tai)。為(wei)加強生(sheng)態(tai)保護,濕(shi)(shi)地(di)(di)建(jian)立了完整(zheng)的水(shui)凈化、水(shui)生(sheng)態(tai)、水(shui)環境處(chu)理體系。濕(shi)(shi)地(di)(di)在天(tian)(tian)鵝湖、蘆(lu)葦(wei)池(chi)、菖蒲池(chi)、睡蓮池(chi)、魚躍塘設置了水(shui)系生(sheng)態(tai)修復區和濕(shi)(shi)地(di)(di)生(sheng)態(tai)觀賞區。孝河濕(shi)(shi)地(di)(di)是鳥類的天(tian)(tian)堂,園區設有(you)多處(chu)觀鳥臺,給(gei)游客呈現出(chu)群鳥歡飛的壯麗景(jing)觀。
孝(xiao)(xiao)河(he)濕(shi)(shi)地(di)之(zhi)妙,在于(yu)人(ren)(ren)(ren)文(wen)(wen)。孝(xiao)(xiao)河(he)濕(shi)(shi)地(di)自古(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)就是郊野隱逸之(zhi)地(di),被文(wen)(wen)人(ren)(ren)(ren)雅士視為人(ren)(ren)(ren)間凈土、世外桃(tao)源(yuan)。尉(wei)公池(chi)、狀元池(chi)歷史(shi)文(wen)(wen)化(hua)底蘊(yun)深(shen)厚(hou),“六壁斜(xie)陽”等是孝(xiao)(xiao)義古(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)十(shi)(shi)四景之(zhi)一。濕(shi)(shi)地(di)中生(sheng)長著不乏(fa)數(shu)十(shi)(shi)年以上的(de)(de)老楊樹(shu)。園區內(nei)古(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)道、古(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)樹(shu)、古(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)井隨處可(ke)見,真(zhen)所(suo)謂“枯藤(teng)老樹(shu)昏鴉、古(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)道西風(feng)瘦(shou)馬”,形成孝(xiao)(xiao)河(he)濕(shi)(shi)地(di)特(te)有的(de)(de)人(ren)(ren)(ren)文(wen)(wen)景致。這里的(de)(de)古(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)窯洞與(yu)古(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)村落被文(wen)(wen)人(ren)(ren)(ren)墨(mo)客、攝影愛好(hao)者賦予了濃郁的(de)(de)人(ren)(ren)(ren)文(wen)(wen)色彩。它們的(de)(de)滄桑變遷,體現了孝(xiao)(xiao)河(he)濕(shi)(shi)地(di)深(shen)厚(hou)的(de)(de)文(wen)(wen)化(hua)底蘊(yun)。
