    Reservations are free, and the museum opens at 9:00 AM and is closed on Mondays. This unusually shaped building, designed by an Italian team, resembles a giant ceramic vessel and won the 2025 International Design Gold Award. The museum houses 2,881 ceramic pieces, including its crowning achievement, the "Underglaze Five-Color Lentil and Double Bird Vase," a gold medal-winning piece from the 1915 Panama World Expo. Crafted using the lost Doucai technique, only three examples exist. In good weather, the exterior offers stunning photographs. There's a porcelain slit nearby where you can wander and pick up bargains.

    For those seeking a less crowded and more relaxed zoo experience in China, the Changsha Ecological Zoo is an excellent choice. Its large, open grounds provide a comfortable environment for a day of family fun and animal encounters.One of the standout features is the safari bus, which offers a fantastic way to see many of the animals in a spacious, naturalistic setting. It’s a highlight that allows you to cover a lot of ground comfortably. We were also delighted to see two giant pandas, which were a definite treat.The zoo offers more than just viewing; the interactive experiences are highly engaging. We attended a memorable bird show where parrots danced, and one clever bird even performed simple math problems, amazing both children and adults. There are also several feeding events throughout the day. My daughter had a wonderful time feeding carrots to a llama, and we saw other opportunities to feed animals like elephants, though we didn't partake in that one. These interactive moments make the visit particularly special for kids.For visitors who might find the large park challenging to walk, the zoo thoughtfully offers small electric carts for rent. This is a great option for families with young children or elderly members, ensuring everyone can enjoy the park without getting too tired.Overall, the Changsha Ecological Zoo provides a wonderful, spacious, and interactive day out, free from the overwhelming crowds of zoos in other major cities.

    Zhuzhou Fantawild Happy World's Dream Kingdom is fun and highly recommended, offering excellent value for money and a wide variety of attractions, including Nezha's Conquest of the Sea, Qin Tomb Exploration, Colorful China, Magic World, Five Thousand Years of China, and Havoc in Heaven. These attractions are all indoors, with ample air conditioning. The VR experience is realistic and stunning, and the stage settings create an immersive experience. "A Thousand Years of Butterfly Love" and "Water Flooding Jinshan" are both live-action stage plays that are truly captivating. The final scene of "Water Flooding Jinshan" is particularly captivating, with the water curtain cascading down like a waterfall. If the auditorium weren't covered by a canopy, the water curtain would have torn us apart and left us soaked. The rumbling sound of the water mixed with the exclamations of the crowd had us tiptoeing and craning our necks, desperately trying to take in the scenes. It was truly awe-inspiring! Besides these, there's also an outdoor water park with family-friendly activities, including water rafting and canyon crossings. We tried them twice, and the huge splashes created by the plunging water created rainbows in the sunlight. The summer heat was instantly washed away by the current, leaving only cheers and screams... Best of all, since it wasn't a holiday, there were few people and no lines, making the experience absolutely amazing!

    After navigating for 3 kilometers, I finally arrived at the Li Zijian Art Museum. It was a profound spiritual baptism and artistic edification. Black swans swam leisurely along the banks of the Xiang River, while I lay on the grass sunbathing, enjoying the tranquility. The space of the soul is humanity and love; the painter's pursuit of great goodness and love extends far beyond aesthetics.

    I have always wanted to experience this after watching Crazy Maggie on Mango TV. I finally had the chance to come to Changsha to experience it. It is not a one-ticket-all-access system. You can only experience one escape room at a time. You have to buy several tickets to play several escape rooms. The boys and girls inside are very warm and thoughtful, and they will help you form a team...
