Plum Blossom Valley
Hear the roaring waterfalls up close, gaze at terraced plum groves afar
Walk the plank path to the waterfall base—feel the refreshing mist!

Shuanghe Bridge
By day, it's a local gathering spot;
At dusk, it transforms into the poetic "hustle and bustle" from literati's descriptions.
With riverside white-walled houses and layered mountain ranges, it's like a "Maoming version of Fenghuang Ancient Town"

Ma'an Bamboo Sea
Wander through kilometer-high bamboo paths—a sea of soothing emerald!
Capture panoramic views from Green Forest Square, evoking scenes from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
During blue hour sunset, the rammed-earth architecture glows golden—like stepping into a "miniature Thousand-House Miao Village"

Floral Stream Avani Hotel boasts stunning balcony views, just 1-minute walk to shallow streams
Meanwhile, Ma'an Bamboo Sea's Cloud Nest perches mid-mountain with an infinity pool hovering above the valley—if possible, experience both for different charms

Must-Try Foods
Bamboo shoot stuffed with pork, bamboo tube rice, bamboo fungus chicken soup!
