    I couldn't book tickets for just one yuan on the "Fireworks Cloud" mini-program, so I had to buy them. I drove from Changsha to Liuyang, parked at the administrative center, and then took a shuttle bus. Transportation was fairly convenient. The performance was quite good, with fireworks and song and dance performances. There are plenty of food options on the first floor of the Sky Theater; it's good to arrive early to avoid the crowds and grab a bite. Seeing such a breathtaking fireworks display up close was definitely worth it. Regular tickets are for the South and North sections. VIP tickets are in the middle. If you're in South 3 or North 3, it's very, very remote. Mine was seat number 50 in South 1; see the picture for the angle.

    The Mawangdui Han Tomb is the burial site of Li Cang, Prime Minister of Changsha State during the early Western Han Dynasty, and his family of three. It is the best-preserved Han Dynasty royal tomb complex in Hunan Province to date. In 1976, the Mawangdui Han Tomb site was designated a provincial-level cultural heritage site in Hunan Province. Three adjacent tombs were subsequently excavated at the Mawangdui Han Tomb: Tomb No. 2 is the tomb of Li Cang, Marquis of Wu; Tomb No. 1 is the tomb of Li Cang's wife, Xin Zhui; and Tomb No. 3 is the burial site of Li Cang's son. All three tombs are vertical pits over 10 meters deep with passageways. The filling layers, from top to bottom, consist of burial mounds, rammed earth, white plaster, and charcoal. The burial chamber at the bottom of the tomb contains an outer coffin, side boxes, and an inner coffin. Numerous burial objects were placed in the side boxes surrounding the coffin chamber. In August 2024, all artifacts unearthed from Mawangdui Han Tombs No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 were systematically cleared. All the cultural relics unearthed from this Han tomb group are displayed in the Hunan Provincial Museum.

    This was Mrs. He's second visit to the Hunan Provincial Museum. Last time it was just the two of us, but this time we brought our two daughters who were back from working abroad on vacation. The guide, Xiaoxing, explained things clearly and concisely, a world apart from the professionalism of the guides in the large group of twenty or thirty people we visited last time. This guided tour and explanation were very insightful and engaging, and we are very grateful for her professionalism and enthusiasm. We are deeply impressed by the improvement in professional guided tour capabilities in China. Thank you again to guide Xiaoxing for her professional service!

    Changsha's Wuyi Square is a captivating urban hub, beloved by tourists and locals alike. It serves as a transfer station for Changsha Metro Lines 1 and 2, with numerous bus routes providing excellent transportation access, earning it the title of Changsha's "city living room." The area boasts a thriving commercial sector, with large shopping malls like the IFS and Wangfujing Department Store, as well as distinctive commercial streets such as Huangxing Road Pedestrian Street and Taiping Street, offering an exceptional shopping experience. Wuyi Square is also a food paradise, featuring renowned restaurants like Huogongdian on Pozi Street, numerous Chayan Yuese stores nearby, and mouthwatering local delicacies such as stinky tofu and sugar-coated fried dough sticks. Wuyi Square is steeped in history and culture, considered the "origin of Changsha," with many historical buildings preserved in the surrounding area. At night, Wuyi Square is ablaze with neon lights, and the bar street on Jiefang West Road is bustling with activity, making it a national-level nighttime cultural and tourism consumption cluster with a vibrant nightlife.

    The China Giant Panda Garden is quite far from the city center; a taxi ride from Yueyang Tower takes 30-40 minutes. Choose the Giant Panda Garden Visitor Center as your destination; the fare should be around 40 yuan. After getting off the taxi, walk towards the shuttle bus stop. The driver will tell you where the return shuttle bus stop is. The park is large; you can easily walk around in about three hours, including watching the pandas eat and sleep. When I went today, it happened to be lunchtime for the panda cubs, so I was able to film many of them eating. After watching the pandas, it's a long walk to catch the shuttle bus. The panda garden is also some distance from bus stops, so it's best to take a taxi or drive yourself.

    Tianxin Pavilion is one of Changsha's tourist attractions, but personally, I feel it's optional if you're short on time. Above the steps, there's a small square with beautiful autumn foliage. The entrance fee is 40 yuan, but it's free for seniors over 65. Feel free to stroll around and take some photos.
