Visited Changsha's Orange Island, a must-see recommendation!

🚉Transportation tips: Took a taxi there, the driver said that the car needed to be booked in advance to drive in, otherwise we would have to walk. He drove us onto the bridge to see if it was possible, but if not, he could drop us off at the place to take the mini train!! However, the driver knew that without a reservation we couldn't get in, but still took us to the bridge. We couldn't stop the car, and then he dropped us off at the other end of the bridge to walk up and then down (the mini train is under the bridge, about a 6-minute walk), and we naively got stuck on the bridge hoping to go directly to take the mini train! 🧳Preparation before the trip: We had booked the tickets in advance, but they were not needed. No staff checked the tickets, and we just went in and bought the mini train tickets. The round-trip mini train ticket was 40 yuan, which is quite expensive. The train is slow, and after getting off, there's still about a 10-minute walk. The walking path is very narrow and crowded!! If you have the time, I suggest walking in. 🌟Highlights: The statue of Chairman Mao really attracts a lot of people. Just walk towards the center to find a good spot for photos. 📝Tips: I recommend taking the subway🚇, which is the most convenient way to get directly to Orange Island.

Orange Island

Let me share with you some inspiration for 3 days and 2 nights in Changsha, because this city is really all-encompassing: eating spicy, having fun, and a super rich sense of literature and art. Whether you want to take a taste bud stimulation trip or feel the local cultural atmosphere, Changsha can satisfy you Itinerary inventory recommendation 1. Orange Island Head Address: Tangerine Island, Yuelu District, Changsha City Opening hours: All day If you only stay in Changsha for a few days, Tangerine Island Head must be visited! You can walk along the riverside, and you can also see the super giant Chairman Mao statue. The whole park has a very chill atmosphere. In the evening, you can also see the night view of the Xiangjiang River. 2. Taiping Street & Pozi Street Address: Tianxin District, Changsha Opening hours: General snack bars open until 10pm The locals' favorite old neighborhood has all the authentic Changsha snacks in one street, such as stinky tofu, sugar-oil dumplings, and big sausages. There are also many cultural and creative boutiques and nostalgic old houses along the street. After walking around, you can't get enough of it. 3. Hunan Provincial Museum Address: No. 50, Dongfeng Road, Kaifu District, Changsha City Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday 9:00-17:00 (Closed on Monday, Wednesday and Friday) Be sure to reserve a day and a half to come, the town pavilion of BMW Wangdui Han Tomb and Xin Zhui Lady are definitely worth seeing, various cultural relics exhibits, feel the weight of Chinese civilization. 4. May Day Square Address: May Day Avenue, Furong District, Changsha City Opening hours: Business district typically 10:00 to 22:00 Shopping malls, subways, and food all together, whether shopping or having supper, is extremely convenient. There is also a large musical fountain at night, which is fun and fun. Real impressions after use This combo of three days and two nights in Changsha is really perfect for a short vacation! 😎 The city's enthusiasm and spicy taste really from morning to night uninterrupted - out of the door must prepare more bottles of water, not afraid of spicy or not afraid of sweat. Walking Slope Street, Orange Island and other attractions are usually crowded, it is recommended to wear comfortable shoes; the museum is famous for difficult appointments, remember to book online in advance to enter. Transportation TIPS/Food Tips 1. Changsha Metro is convenient, Tangerine Chau, Pozi Street, May Day Square, etc. can be directly accessed by the subway; 2. Stinky Tofu Recommendation Black Classic black stinky tofu, crispy and soft; 3. Sugar oil dumplings are recommended to buy and eat, do not leave overnight; 4. The Hunan Provincial Museum makes reservations online in advance, with more crowds on public holidays and weekends. Finally, the heat of Changsha follows the spiciness – not only the weather and food, but also the enthusiasm of the locals! Changsha will certainly not disappoint you. Why don't you book a flight/high-speed rail to fly there? 🔥 #Changsha Must Visit #Food Strategy #Culture Gathering #3 Days 2 Nights #Travel Tips
