🌟 Why Visit Orange Island

Orange Island, also called Juzizhou (橘子洲), is one of Changsha’s most iconic landmarks. It stretches over 5 km along the Xiangjiang River and is famous for its natural beauty, city views, and cultural history.

It’s especially well-known as the place where Mao Zedong wrote his famous poem “Changsha” in 1925.
