A Vibrant Blend of History and Modern China

#mytraveldiary My visit to Changsha, Hunan’s lively capital, was a journey through both tradition and modernity. The city buzzes with youthful energy, thanks to its universities and thriving nightlife, yet history and culture are everywhere. Yuelu Academy stood out as a serene reminder of China’s scholarly past, nestled on Yuelu Mountain with tranquil surroundings. The Orange Isle, with its famous Mao Zedong statue, offered stunning riverside views and a glimpse into local pride. Changsha is also known for its spicy cuisine, adding flavor to every moment. With its mix of cultural landmarks, modern skyscrapers, and warm hospitality, Changsha left me truly captivated.
