Purple Bamboo Park mainly consists of three lakes and two isles. A large lake is on the western side, with a vast water area for visitors to ride boats. Two small lakes on the eastern side mainly grow lotus flowers, known as the south and north lotus ponds. The main scenic spots in the park include the Fuyin Purple Bamboo Garden on the northern bank of the large lake, the waterside pavilion on the northeastern bank and "Pure Blue Mountain Villa" on the southern bank. In 1986, an exquisite garden named Bamboo and Rock Garden was constructed in the north of the park. The Bamboo and Rock Garden is a world of bamboo, consisting bamboo valleys, pavilions, forests and gorges.
