Anji Exclusive! Stay in the Heart of the Bamboo Forest | 3 Days and 2 Nights Itinerary

Location: Anji China Bamboo Sea | 2 hours from Shanghai / 1.5 hours from Hangzhou 💡Truth be told: This B&B is "a 900-meter walk to the Bamboo Sea + swimming pool + unlimited bamboo shoot digging in the back mountain"! Perfect for a relaxing getaway with kids/team building. We surprisingly didn't leave a 2-kilometer radius of the B&B for 3 days... (Includes real experiences, avoid false advertising!) 📅[Day 1: First Bamboo Forest Experience, Bamboo Shoot Digging + Pool Double Dip] ▫14:00 Arrive at "Anji Zhiwu Meisu" ✔Stunned by the bamboo forest framed by the floor-to-ceiling windows! Rooms are equipped with mousse mattresses + smart toilets, and this clean freak mom checked under the bed for dust (plus one for cleanliness). ✔"The bamboo shoot field in the back mountain just had rain, now is the best time to dig!" (Bamboo shoots are plump in spring, and digging is free!) ▫15:30 Bamboo Shoot Digging Parent-Child Battle Grab bamboo hoes + baskets, the housekeeper led the way to a hidden bamboo shoot field in 5 minutes, and taught the kids how to identify "crooked neck bamboo shoots" (tender!). We dug a full basket in 2 hours (the B&B processes them for free, and we had braised bamboo shoots for dinner that were incredibly fresh!). ▫18:00 First Pool Visit The outdoor pool officially opens in June! Kids went wild with their swim rings, parents lounged on the poolside wicker chairs with ice-cold beer, watching the sunset gild the bamboo forest (unfiltered photos!). ▫19:30 Bamboo Forest BBQ Freshly grilled lamb skewers + vegetables, with iced watermelon. Friends on the team building trip booked the whole place and sang karaoke (11 rooms can accommodate 28 people, 100+ per person including breakfast!). 📅[Day 2: Bamboo Sea Hike + Pool Revival] ▫08:30 B&B Breakfast Freshly made nutritious breakfast + soy milk, the kids ate 2 steamed buns each (the owner said the bun filling was made with the bamboo shoots we dug yesterday!). ▫10:00 10-minute walk to the Bamboo Sea Must-do: "Glass walkway" (those afraid of heights can choose the wooden walkway on the left, the scenery is just as stunning). Overlook 100,000 acres of green waves from the bamboo viewing tower on the mountaintop. Non-slip shoes are recommended (the bamboo forest is humid and hot in July, bring a small fan!). ▫14:00 Back to the B&B to relax ✔Kids played water guns in the pool, parents played mahjong in the shade (free game room!). ✔Enjoy iced watermelon and iced tea, with homemade cold drinks, listening to the rustling bamboo leaves is super healing. ▫17:00 Light Hike in the Bamboo Forest Take a shortcut to the waterfall in the back mountain (20 minutes one way), wade in the stream and catch small crabs. 📅[Day 3: Lazy Wrap-up, Take the Bamboo Sea Flavors Home] ▫07:30 Back Mountain Sea of Clouds Lottery Woken up by the housekeeper's alarm: "Go to the viewing platform now, 90% chance of a sea of clouds!" Rushed up in pajamas, the clouds and mist flowed through the bamboo forest, like a spilled milk jug (posting the unedited photos on my WeChat Moments got tons of questions!). ▫09:00 Second Bamboo Shoot Digging (addiction warning!) The kids were still thinking about yesterday's "bamboo shoot babies," and dug up 3 more. The housekeeper helped wrap them up for us to take home (SF Express cold chain delivery to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai within 24 hours!). ▫11:00 Check-out Surprise Received freshly picked cherry tomatoes + Anji specialties, and discovered that the B&B allows pets! (Saw a Corgi basking by the pool, regretted not bringing our dog.) ▫Return Trip Detours: ✔"Xiao Hang Keng" Camp No. 1, 2 km away, free grassland and lake views, perfect for Ghibli-esque photos (15 minutes). ✔"Bamboo Expo Garden," 10 minutes by car, kids can see pandas and escape the heat, adults can enjoy the air conditioning (suitable for when you're wilting in the afternoon sun). 🌟[Honest Pros and Cons Review (No Ads)] ✅ Pros: ▫Walking distance to the Bamboo Sea, a blessing for lazy people (really great for seniors and kids!). ▫Pool opens in July, water temperature is a super comfortable 28°C. ▫Bamboo shoot digging is free! The housekeeper patiently teaches, giving kids a sense of accomplishment. ▫New B&B with great facilities, bedding so soft you'll want to take it home, and direct drinking water throughout. ▫Team building friendly: Booking the whole place includes KTV/billiards, free barbecue grill rental, suitable for small, socially anxious groups. 📌July Exclusive Tips: ▫Wear rain boots for bamboo shoot digging! The mountain paths are muddy and slippery (B&B can lend you some). ▫Pool opening hours are 9:00-21:00, fewer people in the evening for better photos. ▫Bring mosquito repellent! There are small bugs in the bamboo forest in the evening (the B&B provides electric mosquito swatters).
