竹编工坊
Craft
Bamboo weaving with an inheritor
Two to three hours, real moso strips, and a basket, fan or lampshade you made yourself. The single highest-rated thing we sell, in any language.
Ten things to do with your hands
Craft, food, culture and adrenaline — the experiences our guests rate highest, with what each one actually costs and how long it really takes.
Quick answer
Short answer: if you do one, do the bamboo-weaving workshop — two hours, ¥120–260, and you take home something you made yourself. For culture, seal carving in Zhangwu (two hours, your name in stone). For adrenaline, the cliff walkway at Yunshang Grassland or gorge rafting in summer. Everything here is bookable through us with a fixed price.
竹筒饭 · 竹筒咖啡
Food
Bamboo-tube rice & bamboo coffee
Sticky rice, mushroom and cured pork steamed inside a green bamboo node, split open at the table. The coffee version is a novelty; the rice version is the meal.
挖笋
Seasonal · March–April
Spring bamboo-shoot digging
An hour in the forest with a hoe and a farmer who knows which shoot is ready. You eat what you dig that night. Genuinely muddy, genuinely memorable.
竹灯彩绘 · 竹刻
Craft
Bamboo lantern painting & carving
The indoor, rain-proof craft option: paint a bamboo-frame lantern or carve a name into a bamboo slip. Good for mixed-age groups where half the party does not want a knife.
竹林瑜伽
Wellness
Bamboo-forest yoga & breathwork
A teacher, a platform, and 07:00 light coming through the culms sideways. Ninety minutes, mats provided, no experience needed.
玻璃栈道与高空项目
Adrenaline
Cliff walkway & high-altitude rides
Yunshang Grassland's glass-edged walkway hangs over the cloud line, with swings and zip lines beside it. Included with the scenic ticket or sold as add-ons — check what is running on the day, wind closes them.
漂流
Summer · June–September
River rafting
Three operators run gorge rafting nearby: Xianlongxia, Zhebei Grand Canyon and Shenxi. Two hours, helmets and life jackets provided, and you will be soaked. Not for children under about 1.2 m.
竹筏漂流
Any season
Bamboo-raft drifting
The gentle version: a raftsman poles you down a slow stream between bamboo banks. Zero adrenaline, maximum atmosphere, safe with grandparents and toddlers.
茶事体验
Seasonal · March–April
White-tea picking & tasting
Pick pale leaves on the Xilong terraces, then learn why Anji white tea is technically a green tea. Tasting rooms are free; the picking experience is ¥80–150.
中国书法 · 篆刻
Culture
Calligraphy & seal carving
A two-hour introduction in Zhangwu village, the home of Wu Changshuo: brush, ink, and a stone seal you carve with your own name in it. Surprisingly absorbing for teenagers.
Booking
How the workshops work
All of them are small studios with real makers, not demonstration theatres.
1 · Tell us ages and group size
Some crafts need adult hands, some are ideal for children from six. We match the workshop to the group.
2 · We hold the slot
Two days' notice is usually enough; a week in peak season or for English instruction.
3 · Pay the maker on the day
Cash or WeChat. No commission is added to the prices on this page — that is a promise, not a slogan.
Language: the bamboo workshop runs in English daily. Calligraphy and etiquette-heavy crafts work best with an interpreter — ¥300 for a half day, added to the guide rate.
Book a workshop before you arrive
Peak-season slots in the bamboo studios go first. Send us dates and ages and we will hold the space.
