Yixing Bamboo Sea, an impromptu 'bamboo' fun trip

Grass Planting Note Content: Yixing Bamboo Sea, an impromptu 'bamboo' fun trip In this season embraced by high temperatures, I decided to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and seek a bit of coolness and tranquility in Yixing Bamboo Sea. Yes, it's the legendary place where 'there are more bamboos than trees, and bamboo shoots are more expensive than rice,' a natural oxygen bar that allows the soul to take a deep breath. With endless fantasies about the bamboo sea, I embarked on this impromptu 'bamboo' fun trip. Departure: 'Reconciliation' with the Heat In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight tried to penetrate the curtains, I was already ready to go. I glanced at the weather forecast on my phone—29~34℃, and silently cheered myself up: 'The wind in the bamboo sea will be the best cooling artifact!' On the way to Yixing Bamboo Sea, the car stereo played cheerful melodies, as if even the air was swaying to the rhythm. First Sight: 'Fairy' Atmosphere by the Mirror Lake Upon arriving at the scenic area, the first thing that caught my eye was the legendary Mirror Lake. The lake surface was like a mirror, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and the lush bamboo forest around it, so beautiful that it was intoxicating. It is said that you can also see the 'living fossil' of biological evolution—the peach blossom jellyfish. Although I didn't get to see them this time, just imagining those ancient and mysterious little creatures leisurely swimming in the water was enough to inspire awe. Walking along the lakeside, a breeze brushed my face, carrying the fragrance of bamboo leaves and the moisture of the lake, instantly dispelling the heat around me. I couldn't help but take a deep breath, as if I could inhale a lungful of negative oxygen ions, making me feel lighter. Hiking: 'Green Maze' in the Bamboo Forest Since the cableway was being upgraded, I decided to take an impromptu hiking trip! Along the winding path, I stepped into the vast bamboo sea. On both sides were dense bamboos, standing tall and resilient, as if telling stories of a thousand years. The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the bamboo leaves, casting dappled shadows, adding a touch of mystery and romance to this green world. I walked and took photos, trying to capture this rare freshness and tranquility with my camera. But gradually, I realized that the beauty in the lens was far less than what I saw with my own eyes. The feeling of being in the midst of thousands of acres of bamboo forest is something that no words or pictures can fully express. You can only feel it with your heart, to experience that gift from nature. Challenge: 'Lofty Ambition' at Lingyun Pavilion Tired from walking, I chose to take the cable car to Lingyun Pavilion. As the cable car slowly ascended, the scenery before my eyes kept changing. From the bamboo forest below to the distant mountains, and then to the blue sky and white clouds above, everything seemed so small yet magnificent. At that moment, I felt as if I was also 'lofty ambition' with the cable car, with all worries and fatigue drifting away with the mountain breeze. Upon reaching Lingyun Pavilion, I couldn't wait to run to the observation deck, wanting to take in the vast bamboo sea at a glance. But the sight before me made me a bit 'dizzy'—the bamboo sea stretched endlessly, lush and green, like a giant painting unfolding before my eyes. I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the freshness and freedom from the mountain top. Return: 'Lingering Sound' Left by the Bamboo Sea On the way down, I chose to walk. Although my legs were a bit sore, my heart was filled with satisfaction and joy. The scenery along the way was still charming, and every stop revealed new surprises. The swaying bamboo leaves in the wind, the trickling streams, the occasional bird songs... everything seemed so harmonious and beautiful. When I returned to the entrance of the scenic area, my heart was already full of reluctance. But I knew that the beauty of Yixing Bamboo Sea had been deeply imprinted in my memory. It will become a bright spot in my future days, warming and empowering me whenever I think of it.
