Changsha Travel Recommendations

Changsha is highly recommended! I've visited several cities in China, and personally, this is my favorite so far! It's a big city, but very comfortable to live in. The food is generally spicy, but you can choose less spicy options (mild spicy), so don't worry! The cost of living is consistently low, so be careful not to overeat!

Photos 📷️
1st photo → This is a large statue of Mao Zedong. Admission is free, but getting there requires quite a walk. Many people opt to take the park's transportation, which costs about 40 yuan for a round trip.

2nd photo → A famous drink shop in Changsha! You can find it almost everywhere, so definitely give it a try! Their snacks are also delicious, so don't miss out!

4th photo → Surprisingly, people in Changsha eat noodles for breakfast! If you want to experience the local lifestyle, be sure to try it!

5th photo → You must visit at night! However, note that the lights turn off at 10:30 PM. Many people wear traditional Hanfu for photos, and there are plenty of Hanfu rental shops nearby.

6th photo → This place offers a nostalgic old-town vibe and is great for photos. Inside, there are many food stalls, which are pricier compared to other places, but the atmosphere is fantastic! You can also ride the vehicle shown in the 7th photo, but honestly, it's not necessary. Taking photos from the outside is more than enough!
