Yixing's Zhuhai village is popular among visitors for its abundant natural resources, especially its thousands of acres of bamboo forests that are lush year-round. The density of negative ions in the air can reach up to 100,000 per cubic centimeter, making the village an ideal place to admire bamboo views and culture while experiencing ecological tourism.

The Yixing Sea of Bamboo scenic area and Taozu Holy Land scenic area, the largest cave in Yixing, are located next to the village.
