The appeal of Shuangxi Bamboo Sea lies in its bamboo and water. The scenery here is beautiful, with tea plantations covering the hillsides and deep, shadowy bamboo groves. At Luyu Spring, you can listen to the zither and sip tea, and get a sense of the carefree spirit of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove.

The canyon's mountains are high and its streams swift, with ring-shaped valleys covered in lush vegetation and unusual landforms, earning it the reputation of "white horses emerging from the rock, yellow oxen ploughing the cliffs."
