Chapter 664 National Forest Park

The concept of the national park was first proposed by the American artist George Catlin. In 1832, while traveling, he was deeply concerned about the impact of the great development of the western United States on Indian civilization, wildlife, and wilderness, believing that these traditional and natural things, as an intangible but important value, should be protected. The government should enact a series of protection policies to establish a large park that would include both humans and wild beasts, where everything would be kept in its original state, reflecting the beauty of nature.

Afterward, many countries around the world adopted this concept.

Although the details vary, the essence of a forest park is that of a large nature reserve, fundamentally different from zoos and parks.
