Bamboo Sea (Chinese: 蜀南竹海；pinyin: shǔnánzhúhǎi): Located in the border of Changning and Jiang'an, around 70km southeast of Yibin via Changning, the extraordinary Bamboo Sea covers an area of 120 square kilometers with an elevation of 600 to 1,000 meters. In its central region, more than 5,000 hectares (3,335,000 sq) of upright bamboo shelters 28 ridges and peaks high and low. The entire area which as its name suggests, is a vast stretch of bamboo groves. Bamboo grows in the fields at different levels and in the mountains and hills that stretch long and far. The place seems like a misty vast green sea, hence the name. In a boundless expanse of waves there are a lot of scenic spots, such as Bamboo Sea Museum, old folk residences on Mount Xijia and fish fossils. It is one of the shooting places of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. The slopes of the Bamboo Sea are surprisingly dark, with the tall, slender trunks reaching up to 10m or more. If you want to enjoy the best views of the "sea", you have to climb to the temples on the hill, from where you can see the bamboos swinging in the breeze.
