Changsha Travel Guide

Sleep from Shanghai to Changsha, recommended by special forces (sleeper berths are hard to grab, need to grab them in advance) Shanghai South Changsha Z247 Changsha Shanghai South Z245 Accommodation: I recommend the train station, which is more suitable for the departure times of these two trains. I think May Day Square is a bit noisy, and there are too many homestays. I feel it is better to choose Huazhu Club near the train station. Route reference DAY1: Arrive at Changsha Station around 7 o'clock - leave luggage at the hotel - Orange Island - Hunan University - have dinner - Yuelu Academy (ticket 40) - Aiwan Pavilion - Yuelu Mountain - Meixi Lake Theater - have dinner DAY2: Hunan Provincial Museum - Mawangdui Han Tomb Pit Site - Wuyi Square (Wenheyou) Recommended attractions: Orange Island My personal favorite attraction. I recommend walking there and taking the train back. There are large lawns, plum gardens, peach gardens, and bamboo gardens. You can walk and lie down to bask in the sun, have a picnic, and meditate. If you have enough time, you can use it as a park instead of checking in. It's very comfortable. Yuelu Academy From the gate of Hunan University, go out from the gate of Aiwan Pavilion. I went in the wrong way, so the experience was not so good. I suggest you find an explanation. I don’t know much about the courtyard architecture or history. I just took a quick look and checked in. Love Evening Pavilion Opposite Yuelu Academy, it is very beautiful in both spring and autumn, and you can take photos and check in. Yuelu Mountain It's just mountain climbing. If you are not physically fit, it is recommended to take an electric car. You can find a car near the Aiwan Pavilion. You can take it to the East Gate or return by the same route. You can see the panoramic view at the top, and I took a picture of the Meixihu Grand Theater. Meixihu Grand Theater I highly recommend this drama. It is really dreamy when you turn on the lights at night. You can check if there is any drama you want to watch and buy a ticket. Hunan Provincial Museum The day I went there, I encountered a spring outing for students. There were so many people and it was very noisy. The experience was very bad. In this case, I recommend finding a tour guide. There are many clothes, fabrics and accessories from the Tang and Song dynasties on display, which really suits my taste. That T-chart is stunning. Mawangdui Han Tomb Pit Site Find an explanation! ! ! Taking photos is not allowed, but you can feel some of the ancient wisdom and power. May Day Square Maybe I have seen too many commercial streets, so nothing impressed me. I had diarrhea that day, so I checked in at the toilets on every floor of IFC.

It's not that traveling abroad is unaffordable, but Changsha offers better value.
