A day out in Changsha, Hunan

Changsha is the capital city in Hunan and it's known as the "star city" due to the many TV show celebrities and influencers who make content in the city. The traditional sites of Orange Island or Yuelu Mountain will always be popular places to visit, but Changsha is also known for it's delicious snacks. I highly recommend heading to the downtown area, near Wuyi Square. There you will find an abundance of spicy snacks and Hunan restaurants. Some of the best dishes include stinky tofu 臭豆腐 and spicy crayfish 小龙虾 #changsha #hunan #china #spicy
