Welcome to the green school in Bali, Indonesia. It provides its students with an education about the amazing environment that we live in. It is a holistic and relevant education. During the construction, only bamboo, elephant grass and clay were used. Cement was used just in some places in the foundation. The central and the most important building is the "heart of the school." It is perhaps the largest building in the world built entirely from bamboo. Its dimensions are 18 meters high and 64 meters long. General area of the school includes a variety of structures: apartment buildings, classrooms, office building, and cafes.  The school gets electricity from environmentally friendly sources of energy: hydraulic turbine generators and installed solar panels. It seems that considering the way we are polluting the earth, everyone should attend.

It doesn’t look very reliable even if bamboo is quite a solid material.

Villagers from Chishui, near Zuiyi city organize quite unusual aquatic competitions.
Instead of boats, they sit down or stand on a bamboo cane and hold races on the Pinzhou River.
Looks like a perfect balance to me, I couldn’t probably stand more than a second n_lol
