## About Chashan Bamboo Sea National Forest Park

Chashan Bamboo Sea National Forest Park has a forest coverage rate of 97% and boasts national Class I air quality, making it an ideal natural oxygen bar. Its 2,000 hectares of tea plantations and more than 3,300 hectares of natural bamboo forest intertwine, with tea and bamboo growing side by side, which is why it is known as “Chashan Bamboo Sea.” It is also the training base for China's national chess team and a filming location for the martial arts epic *House of Flying Daggers*.
