Bueng Boraphet ((タイ語:บึงบอระเพ็ด), ) is the largest freshwater swamp and lake in central Thailand. It covers an area of 224 km² east of Nakhon Sawan, south of the Nan River close to its confluence with the Ping River. Originally the area was covered by a large swamp, which was flooded in 1930 with the building of a dam to improve fishing. This is the only known site for the White-eyed River Martin which used to winter there, but has not been seen since 1980, and may be extinct.〔 p86-88〕 106 km² of lake have been declared as a non-hunting area in 1975. In 2000 it was also declared as a wetland of international importance by the Thai government.〔(wetlands.org )〕 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bueng Boraphet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
