#中国 Mainland Attractions Yueyang Tower is an ancient city tower located above the west gate of the ancient city of Yueyang City, Hunan Province. It faces Dongting below, Junshan Mountain in front, and the Yangtze River in the north. It has the reputation of "the water is in the world in Dongting, and the tower is in the sky in Yueyang". The Yueyang Tower was built around 220 AD. According to legend, its predecessor was the "Yueyang Tower" of the Eastern Wu general Lu Su during the Three Kingdoms period. It was called the "Baling Tower" during the Western Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and was called the "Yueyang Tower" in the mid-Tang Dynasty. Yueyang Tower is the only ancient building that maintains its original appearance among the three famous towers in Jiangnan. Entering the main building, the red city wall makes Yueyang Tower more imposing👍 Climbing the city wall, the Yueyang Tower is majestic, with 3 floors, 19.42 meters high, 14.54 meters deep, 17.42 meters wide, covering an area of ​​251 square meters, supported by four columns and upturned eaves. The four golden nanmu pillars in the building run straight through the roof, and are surrounded by corridors, rafters, rafters and purlins that interlock with each other to form a whole. The whole building does not use a single iron nail. It is amazing. The Yueyang Tower also has a helmet-top structure with a curved roof. Smooth, steep and curved, like the head of an ancient warrior Looking at the Yangtze River in the distance, I think of Fan Zhongyan's heroic ambition in "The Story of Yueyang Tower" "Be worried about the world's worries first, and be happy after the world's happiness"🤗🤗

A famous cultural landscape, one of the four famous towers in Jiangnan. It is said to have been the military review tower of Lu Su, a general of the Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms period. The building is not high, with only three floors. The park has the evolution of buildings from the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. Each of the three floors has a different inscription of "Yueyang Tower". With its back against Dongting Lake, one can have a panoramic view of the Dongting Lake after climbing up the tower. The scenery is pleasant and it is a good place for tourists who like cultural attractions and natural landscapes. #Overseas Travel

Dinner was also eaten in a famous restaurant in Yueyang. There is a particularly famous big bone here, which is said to be a particularly popular dish last year. Of course, this year is also hot. I was the first to eat this, and it was very appetizing. This is the most characteristic big bone. The photo doesn't look so exaggerated, but it was really shocking us when we came up. It was so big. Big big bones to eat with gloves, must get started, not much meat, but a lot of tendons, eating is super satisfied. The restaurant also has a straw, and the essence of the big bone must be sucked with a straw. Locals seem to like to eat this kind of garlic steamed shrimp, shrimp have been processed, cooked in advance, wait for the heat and then stir with the garlic above, very fragrant. Shrimp is also very tender and tastes invincible. After dinner, I went to the kitchen to observe it. The kitchen was empty and transparent. The chefs were very fast. A dish was quickly cooked and served.

Strolling along the antique stone-paved roads, surrounded by idyllic architecture, visitors and locals alike enjoy a slower pace of life, experiencing the transformation from Chenjiazui Village to Dongting Lake Town. Listen to the stories of long-time residents and glimpse into the unique past of this charming locale. 1. Dongting Lake Town is located south of Nanhu Lake in the Dongting Lake Tourist Resort, encompassing the area from Zhilan Road to Ganshan Road. With a total planned area of 3,200 mu, the project centers around the original village, integrating the surrounding mountains, forests, and farmland to create a leisure and holiday destination showcasing Dongting culture. With a total investment of approximately CNY 780 million, Dongting Lake Town focuses on the "water and countryside" cultural core of Dongting Lake, aiming to become a benchmark for innovative rural cultural tourism. It offers a new type of rural resort complex centered around creative agricultural, cultural, and tourism experiences within artistically designed spaces, all promoting a better life. 2. "I've lived here since 1991, so by the time of the renovation and relocation, I will have lived here for almost 30 years," says Liu Lan, a member of the Huxingshan Community Residents' Committee, setting the stage for the story of this transformation. 3. In her memory, this was once an old village enveloped by the modern city. Before officially becoming Dongting Lake Town, it was known as Chenjiazui. Residents primarily relied on farming and tree planting for their livelihood. The hills were covered with fruit trees and scattered farmlands, which characterized the area. Village roads were narrow and difficult to navigate, chickens and ducks roamed freely, and dilapidated brick houses were a common sight. Apart from relatives, few outsiders visited, painting a picture of a typical urban village. 4. Today, rustic and elegant houses nestle among the trees, complementing the landscape of Nanhu Lake. The town is divided into three main sections: the original village area, a cultural and art experience area, and a science and technology innovation experience area. It integrates hotels and homestays, restaurants, nature education, technological innovation, and artistic experiences. Characteristic hotels and rows of renovated bungalows now house distinctive eateries, all breathing new life into the old structures. The old houses near the ancient park tree in the village center have been transformed into the Taibai Tea House, a popular spot for conversation and tea. Every corner of the town bears witness to the remarkable changes. 5. "When I have free time, I like to bring my children here for a stroll and enjoy a slower pace of life," says Zhang Meng. Now, with clean roads, well-structured houses, and a constant flow of people enjoying leisurely walks, the "slow life" has become a unique feature of Dongting Lake Town. The old village has shed its former dust and grime, quietly transforming with an infusion of new energy, reborn with a fresh perspective. 6. At night, Dongting Lake Town sparkles with lights, and the Planetarium's special light show is a feast for the eyes. "The technologically advanced lighting here is truly beautiful," says Ms. Liu, a visitor with her child. Although not a resident of Chenjiazui, she grew up in the lakeside area and has witnessed its transformation. From demolition to reconstruction, and from reconstruction to gradual improvement, the relatively short period of time feels like a whirlwind of change. Today, Dongting Lake Town has become a popular weekend destination for locals, attracting numerous visitors for leisure, entertainment, and photo opportunities. It is gradually becoming a landmark cultural tourism project in the Nanhu New District. 7. The birth of Dongting Lake Town marks a new era for cultural tourism development in the Nanhu New District. The old park tree stands guard, a silent witness to the history of generations in Chenjiazui. After centuries, it remains a landmark in the heart of Dongting Lake Town, its rings marking the passage of time and the remarkable transformation of this once-forgotten village.

It’s really not a clickbait title! Yueyang Tower is worth visiting many times My dears, I just came back from a trip to Yueyang Tower and I must share this guide with you. I really don’t want anyone to miss it! 1. Preliminary preparations 🔥🔥🔥 Buy tickets in advance on the official account "Yueyang Tower Junshan Island Scenic Area", adult tickets are 70 yuan, and student tickets are half price. If you plan to take aerial photos, you need to apply for a flight permit in advance from the scenic spot’s official account, otherwise you may be restricted. 2. Tour route🔥🔥🔥 I suggest entering from the west gate of the scenic area. As soon as you enter the gate, you can see the ancient archway. Walk along the stone road and pass by the Five Dynasties Tower. Here you can see the miniature landscape of Yueyang Tower in the styles of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. It is very suitable for taking photos and checking in. Then we came to Yueyang Tower. We must climb up to the top of the Yueyang Tower and overlook the 800-mile Dongting Lake. The magnificent scenery is really indescribable! 3. Photo check-in spots👍👍👍 👀Front of Yueyang Tower: a classic camera position, with Yueyang Tower as the background, the photos look like blockbusters. 👀Sanzui Pavilion: Red pillars and green tiles, surrounded by green trees, full of ancient atmosphere. 👀Huaifu Pavilion: Built in memory of Du Fu, the pavilion and Dongting Lake complement each other and are very artistic. 5. Tips👍 If you want to avoid the crowds, it is recommended to enter the park before 9 am or after 4 pm. The space inside Yueyang Tower is limited, so please be careful not to disturb other tourists when taking photos. The tour time is about 3-4 hours. Arrange your time reasonably and don't miss the wonderful attractions. This trip to Yueyang Tower really brought me a lot of gains. I hope everyone can also leave beautiful memories here!

I was very happy to come to Yueyang to watch the sunset during the New Year's Day holiday. Traveling in the opposite direction, there was no traffic jam and no queue. However, the haze really spoiled the scenery, so I could only become a high-saturation warrior and take some photos. 🎡Itinerary: If you just want to check in at the core attractions and watch the sunset, one day is enough! 8:30 Depart from Hankou Station, 10:00 Arrive at Yueyang East Station 10:30 Take a taxi to Yueyang Tower, you can visit Yueyang Tower—Baling Square—Dongting South Road together 12:00 Take a taxi to lunch 2:00 Take a taxi to St. Anne's Church—Walk to the former site of the church school—Take bus No. 21 to Piaowei—Take bus No. 21 back to Dongting South Road to watch the sunset 17:30 Go to dinner 19:12 Return to Wuchang Station from Yueyang Station 🚄Transportation: It is recommended to choose Yueyang Station, as Yueyang East Station is far from the urban area. 🍜Food: 1. Yueyang's cuisine is mainly Hunan cuisine. We avoided internet-famous restaurants and chose to eat at a small restaurant called "Ji Pangzi Kouwei Caiguan" hidden in a residential building. The three dishes we ordered were all delicious, recommended! 2. For snacks, we tried the local rice noodles and doupi (soybean skin roll), both of which were good. Doupi is different from the doupi in Wuhan. The outer skin is crispier. 🏠Accommodation: We made a day trip. If you want to stay overnight, it is recommended to choose a hotel near Yueyang Tower, which is convenient to go anywhere. 📃Ps: 1. If you want to watch the sunset, be sure to check the weather in Yueyang on that day and the sunset time. If time is not enough, you can skip Piaowei and watch it on Dongting South Road; 2. The former site of the church school is just an abandoned old school. If you don't take photos, you can skip this attraction.

Time alone, make peace with yourself, and be kind to the world. I drove to Yueyang in the afternoon and went straight to Piaowei to enjoy a romantic sunset. Piaowei is the best place to watch the sunset in Yueyang. The sun shines on the deck and the water, and every sunset is a magnificent scene of "golden light on the water." Standing here, watching the lake and the sky merge, is super romantic. It made me feel much better, quietly enjoying the sunset, ignoring the hustle and bustle of the world. After returning, I went to Pao Tai Shan for a delicious barbecue. Indeed, only food, beauty (none 😩), and scenery cannot be missed. I returned to the hotel late, and I received a call from the hotel in advance, which was very considerate. Check-in only took a minute, very smooth, and there was no smoke smell in the room. I took a shower and had a good sleep. Overall, I am very satisfied.
