For someone not speaking Chinese at all getting to Shunan Zhuhai, the Bamboo Sea is not as easy as it seems, but due to the kind and helpful locals, our visit turned out fantastic.
The Shunan Bamboo Sea (蜀南竹海国家公园) is a large, true bamboo forest: trees are extremely rare here. Numerous movies were shot here, it's filled with ancient, interesting places to see and is definitely different from a normal, usual forest.
