Jishan Bamboo Sea
笄山竹海
Tens of thousands of mu of moso bamboo spread across Jishan Mountain, south of the city. The forest is four to five degrees cooler than the urban area, making it ideal for hiking and bamboo-shoot feasts.
Jishan Bamboo Sea is on Jishan Mountain, about 10 kilometers south of Guangde city center. Tens of thousands of mu of moso bamboo cover the mountainside in layers. When the wind moves through, the bamboo rolls like waves. Walking trails and viewing platforms run through the forest, and the understory is four to five degrees cooler than the city in summer, making it a popular cool-weather hiking destination near the Yangtze River Delta. In spring, you can dig for bamboo shoots and enjoy a bamboo-shoot banquet, and there are plenty of bamboo-village guesthouses nearby. Ticket prices vary, so check on site. A visit takes about 2 hours. It can be combined with Luhu Bamboo Sea and Lingshan Grand Canyon for a "Bamboo Country Gallery" road trip.
