Changsha is truly a city 🌆 of food, drink, fun, and entertainment. I love it 💕. I recommend everyone to visit Changsha. 🚗 Transportation—Changsha I recommend that you choose the subway 🚇. The Changsha subway covers the main attractions, which is convenient and cheap. There are many bus 🚌 and taxi 🚗 lines, but it is easy to get stuck in traffic during peak hours. 🏠 Accommodation Recommendations 1️⃣ I chose near May 1st Square. Convenient transportation, food, and shopping are all available, suitable for first-time visitors to Changsha. 2️⃣ At the foot of Yuelu Mountain The environment is quiet, suitable for travelers who like peace and quiet. It is super convenient to climb the mountain early in the morning. 3️⃣ Homestay by the Xiang River The river view room has a great view and is super romantic for watching the night view at night. ✅ Itinerary Day 1️⃣: Orange Isle The location of Chairman Mao's statue, feel the weight of history.
