| Top camping spots around Changsha. September is the perfect time for camping. I found a great campsite around Changsha - Guanzhuang Reservoir in Liling. It takes about 1.5 hours to drive from Changsha. Although you need to cross a short mountain road, the scenery here is really amazing! The reservoir is vast, surrounded by vast grasslands, and there are few people. You can enjoy the sunset, barbecue, and fishing, or do nothing, just bask in the warm autumn sun and wait for the sun to set. It's definitely the top camping spot in autumn. Outdoor camping lovers, don't miss it~ 🏕Guanzhuang Reservoir in Liling Address: Huangni, Daba Village, Guanzhuang Town, Liling City, Zhuzhou City 📌Precise location: Navigate to "Dayunhao Leisure Villa" Self-driving: 1.5 hours from Changsha ✔Road conditions: After getting off the highway, the mountain roads in the village are winding, so be careful when driving.

To take great photos of New Year fireworks, you can refer to the following methods: Equipment Preparation • Camera: If possible, use a digital SLR camera or a mirrorless camera, as their image quality and manual functions are more conducive to shooting fireworks. • Lens: Use a wide-angle lens to capture a wider scene and record the fireworks with the surrounding environment, such as a 16-35mm zoom lens; a telephoto lens can zoom in on the fireworks and capture the details of the fireworks, such as a 70-200mm lens. Camera Settings • Shutter speed: Use a slower shutter speed to capture the trajectory of the fireworks. Generally, 3-5 seconds is more appropriate, which can leave long enough lines of fireworks in the picture. • Aperture: Set to a medium aperture, such as f/8-f/11, to ensure a certain depth of field and make the fireworks clear. • ISO: Use the lowest ISO possible to reduce noise, usually set between 100 and 400. Shooting Location and Composition • Location selection: Find a shooting location in advance, with a wide view and no obstructions. For example, on the rooftop of a tall building or the viewing platform by the river. • Composition skills: You can combine city buildings, landmark buildings, etc. with fireworks, and use reflective surfaces such as water to capture the reflection of fireworks, adding beauty and layers to the picture. Shooting Mode • Manual mode (M mode): Manually control the shutter speed, aperture, and ISO to better cope with changes in fireworks. • Continuous shooting mode: Fireworks bloom for a short time, and continuous shooting can capture different moments, making it easier to select photos later.

📍Liling City in Hunan Province is known as the "National Porcelain Capital". When it comes to porcelain, everyone is familiar with Jingdezhen. Liling porcelain is mainly used for foreign trade, so it is not well known. This is actually a very amazing place. The export scale of Liling ceramics is about 3 billion, and one out of every four ceramic cups in the world is produced in Liling👍🏻. The county was established in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, abolished in the Sui Dynasty, and re-established in the early Tang Dynasty. The "Famous Places" said that "there is a tomb in the north of the county, and there is a well under the tomb. The spring gushed out like sweet wine, so the county was named after it." Liling, which has not changed its name for more than 2,000 years, turned out to be so hidden. ⭐Game guide ​ Liling's three treasures: porcelain, fireworks, and stir-fried dishes ✅The first stop is the Liling Ceramic Museum, a bowl-shaped building 🥰, which houses 6,000-year-old ceramic bowls, Han Dynasty pottery jars, 🔺National First-Class Cultural Relic Underglaze Five-Colored Lentil Double-Bird Bottle, which won the gold medal at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition held in San Francisco, USA in 1915 🏅. Since then, Liling ceramics have been popular in China and all over the world. The national first-class cultural relic, the hollow dragon and phoenix palace lantern, took 1 year and 8 months to complete. When you see it with your own eyes, you can't believe it is actually porcelain. There are three Lingling Pagodas, a national first-class cultural relic, carved in total. One is displayed in the Hunan Hall of the Great Hall of the People, one is displayed in the Hunan Provincial Light Industry Hall, and the other is displayed in the Liling Ceramics Museum. The craftsmanship is simply amazing! After visiting the museum, I realized that ceramics involve a wide range of fields and play an immeasurable role. ✅The second stop is to pick up porcelain. As the name suggests, it is really to pick up. There are all kinds of porcelain, with slight flaws but generally not visible. Some of them are charged but the upper limit is 15. I feel like putting it in a burlap bag as long as it is not too heavy. 😄, 📍 Navigate to Qingzizhong and go to Linling Ceramics (Guangming may not be found). There are many types here and the scale is large. There are also many ceramic factories near Zhifu Road in Wanyi Village. The ceramic factories are not concentrated, so there is no need to run around. The recommendations are very comprehensive. ✅The third stop is Liling Kiln, which is the best-preserved ancient porcelain factory. You can see the stepped kiln, dragon kiln, etc. and understand the whole process of making porcelain. But for laymen, this place does not have a deep impression. Surprisingly, there is Weishan Scenic Area nearby, which is very beautiful. ✅Mashi - the hometown of Li Ting, the ancestor of fireworks, is also the dividing line between Liling, Liuyang and Pingxiang. Li Ting invented firecrackers 1,400 years ago. Since then, Liuyang, Pingxiang and Liling have become the "Golden Triangle" for fireworks production. You can buy fireworks here and set them off in designated places (you can ask the store owner for the specific location). ​✅Then visit the most beautiful academy in Hunan - Lujiang Academy, see the ancient camphor tree from 1510 where Wang Yangming had a dialogue, climb the Wangjiang Tower, 1 km away is Liling Gate, behind it is the commercial street, and then go for a stroll at Lujiang Bridge, which is really pleasant. ​ 🎫Tickets: Liling Ceramics Museum🆓 is open to the public free of charge. You are not allowed to enter from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. It is open as usual after 1:00 p.m. No tickets are required for other places (you need to bring your mainland China ID card) ​ 🍛 Food ​ 1⃣️Be sure to try several types of noodles, the varieties are particularly good. I once drove more than 60 kilometers just to eat the noodles there. ​2⃣️Xiandu spicy sauce duck is delicious, and there is also minced duck 3⃣️Stir-fried meat with soup is one of the three treasures. ​ ​ Picking porcelain is recommended for self-driving tours because you really can't stop holding it 😄😄😄 ​ OK, it’s another day of learning, I wish you all have fun 😁 ​ ​ ​ ​

Liujiang Academy is located in the Xishan of Liling, the academy is halfway up the mountain, and from the foot of the mountain to the academy, it's like a park. The location is very quiet, facing the Liujiang River, backed by green mountains, really suitable for reading. There are several camphor trees that are very lush, and it is said that they were planted by Mr. Yangming himself. The academy was founded in the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming once lectured here, and Zuo Zongtang once served as the mountain chief here. The architecture of the academy is fresh and elegant, and it is now a 3A tourist attraction and a national key cultural relics protection unit, one of the must-visit spots for tourists to Liling! Located in Xishan, Liling City, it was originally an imperial college, founded in the second year of Chunxi of the Song Dynasty (1175), and later moved from Dongzheng Street at the foot of Qingyun Mountain to Xishan. In the eighteenth year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty (1753), it was officially named Liujiang Academy. Liujiang Academy is surrounded by mountains on three sides, facing the Liu River, covering an area of nearly 7,000 square meters. Zhu Xi lectured here many times. Zuo Zongtang once served as the mountain chief of Liujiang Academy and was in charge of the academy. Li Lisan, Cheng Qian, Chen Mingren, Zuo Quan, and others studied here. The virtuous Donglu, the fertile Xishan. Liujiang Academy was founded in the second year of Chunxi of the Southern Song Dynasty (1175), where great Confucian scholars such as Zhu Xi and Wang Yangming lectured, Zuo Zongtang served as the mountain chief for three years, and Li Lisan, Zuo Quan, Cai Shenxi, Song Shilun, Chen Mingren emerged from here.

Located on the west bank of the Lüjiang River, Xishan is a sacred cultural site. Walking through the stone path and ascending the steps, one encounters the ancient camphor tree of the academy, which is over a thousand years old, and its lush green shade immediately brings a sense of coolness to both body and mind. The ancient camphor is more than 1500 years old; its thick branches and leaves block out the harsh sun, yet a gentle breeze filters through the mottled light. Light and shadow fall on the stone steps, evoking a sense of historical weight and the passage of time. Liling can be described as a 'city of academies.' From the Southern Song Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty, nine academies were established here: Lai Mountain Academy, (Li Family's) Lai Mountain Academy, Jinsi Academy, Zhaowen Academy, Xishan Academy, Jiangdong Academy, Tianshan Academy, Chaoran Academy (later renamed to Wencheng Academy), and Lüjiang Academy. Among them, Lüjiang Academy holds the most significant historical and cultural status. As a cultural landmark of Liling, Lüjiang Academy is the longest-standing, largest, and most influential academy in Liling, and it is also the only academy that has been preserved to this day. Lüjiang Academy was founded in the second year of the Chunxi era of the Song Dynasty (1175), originally known as Xishan Academy. After several damages, in the eighteenth year of the Qianlong era of the Qing Dynasty (1753), it was rebuilt by the county magistrate Guan Yue at the foot of Qingyun Mountain's Ladder Cloud Pavilion. In the ninth year of the Daoguang era of the Qing Dynasty (1829), the county magistrate Chen Xinbing moved the academy to the site of the former Xishan Academy and built the current Lüjiang Academy. The main buildings include the front gate, lecture hall, ritual hall, dormitory, Jingxing Temple, and the shrine of famous Song Dynasty officials, covering a total area of 4,123 square meters. In 1904, the academy was transformed into a school, beginning the promotion of new education. Lüjiang Academy has a tradition of having famous people in charge of teaching, such as Zuo Zongtang, who once served as the head of the academy. The academy has a unique educational philosophy and method, contributing to the revitalization of education and the cultivation of talent. Renowned figures such as Ning Taiyi, Fu Xiongxiang, Li Lisan, Zuo Quan, Cai Shenxi, Zhu Kejing, Song Shilun, Li Minghao, and Chen Mingren once studied here. In March 2013, Lüjiang Academy was listed as a 'National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit'.

Liling's ceramic production has a history of nearly two thousand years. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were large-scale workshops engaged in pottery production in the suburbs near Liling County (now Xinyang Nan Bamboo Mountain, Wangping, Hetang and other villages). The production of celadon began during the Song and Yuan dynasties. In 1908, Liling created and invented the famous underglaze polychrome porcelain, which is made by first painting patterns on the semi-finished product, then applying glaze and firing it in a high-temperature kiln. After firing, the pattern is covered by a layer of transparent glaze, making it appear crystal clear and bright. It combines the beauty of the body, glaze, craftsmanship, shape, and color decoration, possessing high aesthetic value and cultural significance. The underglaze polychrome porcelain won the gold medal at the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco, USA, which took Liling ceramics to the pinnacle of art and industrial development. The production process of underglaze polychrome porcelain is extremely tedious and complex, and very difficult. First, top-quality porcelain clay is selected for the embryo, and processes such as sedimentation, slag filtration, and iron absorption are carried out before shaping to ensure that the porcelain clay is free of other impurities. Shaping requires the porcelain body to be polished very thin and smooth. The pigments used for porcelain painting come from glaze materials, rare earths, and colored metal minerals, some of which contain precious metals like gold, making them very valuable. Polychrome porcelain is not only beautiful and generous but also has the advantages of being abrasion-resistant, acid and alkali-resistant, lead-free, and never fading. Due to the environmentally friendly and lustrous characteristics of underglaze polychrome porcelain, since 1958, Liling ceramics have been selected as the daily-use porcelain, state banquet porcelain, display porcelain, and gift porcelain for Mao Zedong and other party and national leaders, becoming the prestigious 'national porcelain' and 'red official kiln'. Liling's Qunli Porcelain Factory has repeatedly made daily-use porcelain for Chairman Mao, which is also known as 'Mao porcelain'. 'Mao porcelain' represents the ultimate in underglaze polychrome porcelain and also represents the highest level of Liling's porcelain-making industry at that time. Since then, Liling has also made special porcelain for many leaders at home and abroad, further enhancing the reputation of Liling ceramics around the world. 'Wan Zi Qian Hong' Tableware (Picture 9): Hall 118 of the Great Hall of the People, which was Chairman Mao Zedong's favorite hall, where he worked, held meetings, received foreign guests, and rested all year round. The black ground full-flower Chinese tableware used in the hall was finely crafted in Liling. The painting adopts Liling's traditional underglaze color porcelain hand-painted Fen Shui decoration technique, ingeniously blending various precious flowers, with each containing elements of the other, some budding and some passionately blooming, competing in beauty, giving a sense of a splendid and luxurious floral tapestry, reflecting the prosperous scene of the harmonious coexistence of China's multi-ethnic family. 'Dan Feng Chao Yang' Tableware (Picture 10): Put into use in 2001, it is the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China that the Great Hall of the People has officially used special tableware with a dedicated design for a state banquet. Due to the special nature of the state banquet, the design of this set of porcelain uses the national flower peony and the Chinese auspicious totem phoenix as decorative elements, and since the phoenixes all fly towards the national emblem, it is named 'Dan Feng Chao Yang'. 'Sheng Shi Fang Hua' Tableware (Picture 11): Put into use in 2018, it uses the national flower peony as the design material, and is exquisitely crafted using traditional entwined branch decoration techniques and Liling's pure hand-painting skills. The tableware pattern design is ingenious and continuous, with bright and gorgeous color matching, possessing a very strong Chinese cultural characteristic without losing a modern fashion sense. Liling Ceramic Museum

Liling belongs to Hunan, a county-level city managed by Zhuzhou, located in the eastern part of Hunan province, bordering Pingxiang of Jiangxi to the east and Liuyang of Hunan to the north. Liling is famous both domestically and internationally for its ceramics and fireworks. Together with Pingxiang of Jiangxi and its neighbor Liuyang, they form the three major 'Fireworks Capitals'. Liling is also one of the three major 'Porcelain Capitals' in the country! The Liling kiln has been producing ceramics since the Han Dynasty, with a history of over 2000 years, and is the original production site of underglaze polychrome porcelain in the world. China's Ceramic Valley is a must-visit destination in Liling, consisting of 11 exquisitely constructed buildings shaped like ancient porcelain. Some are tall like cups, others low like plates, with smooth curves and rich colors, they stand out particularly striking and eye-catching against the backdrop of the city. The buildings appear independent on the outside, but inside they are cleverly connected, housing the International Ceramic Exhibition Center, Turandot Hotel, Liling Ceramic Valley Art Museum, and Liling City Ceramic Museum, among others. There's no need to ask for directions or use navigation to get to China's Ceramic Valley. Coming off the highway, you can see several huge porcelain bowls, bottles, and jars from a distance, which are the works of the world-famous Italian Archea Architectural Firm. This firm has also designed Beijing's Tango nightclub, Florida Town, and the UBPAB3-2 Pavilion at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo, among others. Unlike other unusual buildings in China that are often criticized, this huge complex of buildings made of porcelain elements has been praised since its construction, and many people will deliberately detour into the valley upon seeing it from afar. These huge 'porcelain' exteriors that seem to be made of porcelain are actually large steel structures with smooth, soft, and beautiful curves. They are like porcelain, as hard and as brittle as the material, yet capable of being drawn into the most delicate lines. China's Ceramic Valley is located next to Phoenix Avenue in the Liling Economic Development Zone. The Ceramic Valley has no gate, but the entrance marked with the blue-font 'China Ceramic Valley' connected buildings are often considered the gate of the valley, which at a glance looks like a butterfly spreading its wings to welcome guests, but upon closer inspection resembles a porcelain goblet for drinking. The Ceramic Museum is that amber-colored large wine glass. Inside the Ceramic Museum, the history of Liling's ceramics, as well as that of China's ceramics, is preserved. The Turandot Hotel is also very recognizable, with its shape being the classic spindle bottle form found in ceramic vases. Therefore, the museum complex of porcelain is also known as a local landmark. Liling Ceramic Valley

During the May Day mini-holiday, I embarked on a journey to Liling, a place known as the 'millennium porcelain capital'. It attracted my attention as a distant traveler with its exquisite ceramics and unique food culture. Early in the morning, the streets of Liling were filled with the aroma of stir-fried rice noodles. I ordered a bowl just like the locals, steaming hot. Golden eggs, green bean sprouts, and colorful mixed noodles were stir-fried in the pan, topped with soy sauce and chili powder, making the aroma irresistible. With the first bite, the rich texture and unique taste marked the start of a Liling morning from this bowl of stir-fried noodles. In the afternoon, I visited the Porcelain Valley Flower Sea, where the 'Sing a Song Together' event was being held. Despite the drizzle, the audience's enthusiasm was undiminished. The appearance of Gan Wangxing took the atmosphere to a climax. His singing, like flames, ignited everyone's hearts. In the rain, we waved our umbrellas to the rhythm of the music, as if the whole world was immersed in this joy. Leaving the Porcelain Valley Flower Sea, I arrived at the 1915 block. It seemed like a world of ceramics, with exquisite handmade ceramic works and artistic trinkets everywhere. In a small shop, I encountered the internet-famous 'Xiao Hai Ge Fried Rice'. The fragrant fried rice made me stop to taste. On the 1915 stage, instrumental performances and rock dances were performed in turn, showing me the passion and vitality of Liling. In the evening, I went to the Two Sides of One River. An immersive Hanfu parade was taking place. Members of the Liling Hanfu Association, dressed in gorgeous Hanfu, strolled by the river. Their flowing robes and exquisite makeup seemed to transport me to an ancient court.
