👇**Changsha Travel Guide
✅Changsha is the capital of Hunan Province, blending historical charm with modern, trendy vibes, perfect for an in-depth 3–4 day trip. Here are some top recommendations:
‼️**1. Must-Visit Attractions**
🍊- **Orange Isle (Juzizhou)**: Free admission. We recommend taking the sightseeing car (CNY 20) to visit the Young Mao Zedong Statue. The Xiang River night view is also beautiful.
🚡- **Yuelu Mountain**: Hike or take a cable car up the mountain. Aiwan Pavilion and Yuelu Academy (admission: CNY 40) are must-sees. At the academy, experience the profound heritage of this thousand-year-old institution.
🌾- **Wuyi Square/Huangxing Road Pedestrian Street**: Changsha's central business district. At night, it's densely packed with neon signs, perfect for capturing cyberpunk-style photos.
😋**2. Food Guide**
🧆- **Pozi Street/Taiping Street**: These streets are home to Huogongdian (a collection of local snacks), Black Classic Stinky Tofu, and Cha Yan Yue Se (the Orchid Latte is a must-try).
🦞- **Crayfish**: We recommend "Tianbao Brothers" or "Wenheyou." The latter, Super Wenheyou (Hisense Plaza branch), features a retro setting that's perfect for photos.
🍜- **Rice Noodles**: For breakfast, go to "Gongjiao Xincun Fen Dian" (Bus New Village Rice Noodle Shop). Their beef rice noodles with extra toppings are a perfect combination.
✅**3. Off-the-Beaten-Path Experiences**
🌸- **Xie Zilong Photography Museum**: A popular photo spot, its gray architecture is very photogenic. (Closed on Mondays).
⛲- **Hunan Museum**: Free admission, booking required. The Mawangdui Han Tombs exhibit is stunning (be sure to see Lady Xin Zhui).
⚠️**4. Tips**
-🚇 Transportation: The subway is convenient, with most attractions concentrated along Lines 1 and 2. Taxi fares start at CNY 8.
🏠- Accommodation: Staying near Wuyi Square is most convenient, or choose a river-view room along the Xiang River.
