Hunan | Chenzhou has its own Altay Yangtian Lake Grassland

Escape the City Plan|One-Day Tour Guide to Yangtian Lake Grassland in Chenzhou⛰️ This summer I finally checked in at a hidden gem near Guangdong—Yangtian Lake Grassland. Who understands the joy of successfully escaping the routine! Under the blue sky and white clouds, windmills cover the hills, the lake reflects the distant mountains, and cute alpacas accompany you. Every snap is wallpaper-worthy~ 【Itinerary】 📍Yangtian Lake Grassland Address: Provincial Road 212, Yangtian Lake Yao Ethnic Township, Beihu District, Chenzhou City Ticket: 108 RMB (advance online purchase recommended) Opening Hours: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM ✨Must-Do Experiences: 1️⃣ Wind Turbine Cluster: White windmills spin on the grassland under the blue sky, paired with clouds like something out of a Studio Ghibli film—truly healing 2️⃣ Yangtian Lake Reflection: On sunny days, the lake surface is like a mirror, capturing the entire sky and distant mountains (best photo light before 10 AM) 3️⃣ Cute Pet Interaction Zone: Get close to alpacas and ponies, remember to bring some carrots🥕 4️⃣ Camping on the Hilltop: There are tent campsites in the scenic area, perfect for watching the stunning sunset (if not staying overnight, remember to descend before 5 PM) 【Useful Tips】 ☑️ Dress Suggestion: Bright-colored dresses + straw hats for great photos, don’t forget sun protection clothing (high altitude means strong UV rays) ☑️ Transportation: Self-driving or chartered car recommended (about 1.5 hours from Chenzhou city center) ☑️ Hidden Photo Spots: The hillside near the lake offers panoramic views, and the sloping grassland under the windmills is also great for photos ☑️ Food Recommendations: Small restaurants in the Yao Ethnic Township at the foot of the mountain, try the smoked meat stir-fried with bamboo shoots and wild mushroom chicken soup This place really feels like a real-life Windows desktop. Lying on the grass watching the clouds roll by, work worries instantly blown away by the wind~ Remember to come on a sunny day, as the scenery is less impressive on cloudy days!
