竹林，哈莱亚卡拉国家公园，夏威夷州

火山、雨林和竹林？毛伊岛上的哈莱亚卡拉国家公园三者兼有。公园的范围从毛伊岛上海拔10023英尺的山顶一直延伸到海岸，保护着随海拔、降雨量和气温变化而呈现迥异面貌的景观。它于1916年作为夏威夷国家公园的一部分设立，1961年成为独立的国家公园。哈莱阿卡拉意为“太阳之家”，这一名称呼应了夏威夷口述传说“moʻolelo”中毛伊捉住太阳、延长白昼的故事。

公园里有850多种植物，包括仅在哈莱阿卡拉山上自然生长的哈莱阿卡拉银剑草；这里还有夏威夷雁、夏威夷海燕等本地鸟类。在基帕胡鲁区，皮皮维小径穿过潮湿的森林，通往著名的竹林。行至约一英里处，竹子在头顶交织成荫；微风拂过，竹竿相互碰撞，发出别具一格的声响。

Bamboo forest, Haleakalā National Park, Maui, Hawaii

A volcano, a rainforest, and a bamboo grove? Haleakalā National Park on Maui has all three. Spanning Maui from its 10,023-foot summit to the coast, the park protects landscapes that change dramatically with elevation, rainfall, and temperature. It was established in 1916 as part of Hawaii National Park and became its own national park in 1961. The name Haleakalā translates to 'House of the Sun,' reflecting the Hawaiian mo'olelo of Māui capturing the sun to lengthen the day.

The park is home to more than 850 plant species, including the Haleakalā silversword, a plant found naturally only on the mountain, as well as native birds such as the nēnē and 'ua'u. In the Kīpahulu District, the Pīpīwai Trail heads through a wet forest to its famous bamboo grove. About a mile into the hike, the bamboo creates a canopy overhead, with its stalks making distinctive sounds when the wind moves through them.
