    Explore Fenghuang Ancient Town during the off-season. Less crowds, perfect for taking photos. Hotels are cheaper, traffic is light, and parking is convenient. Fenghuang Ancient Town is a place worth experiencing in depth. The town's culture, the morning scenery along the Tuojiang River, and the birdsong and fragrant flowers in the mountaintop park are all worth savoring. This ancient town, home to Shen Congwen's former residence, is worth a visit. Choose a spot and quietly relax for two or three days.

    Orange Isle holds unique historical and cultural significance, making it a must-visit in Changsha. As for the river cruise at night, it's pretty much the same everywhere, and the ticket prices are similar. If you haven't experienced it elsewhere before, you can give it a try. The Xiangjiang River cruise lasts about 40-50 minutes and includes a ticket to the Orange Isle mini-train, making it relatively good value for money.

    Very pretty pavilion to visit and see the Xiang River.Everything was in Chinese though, so google translate is a must if can’t read Chinese.Definitely worth a visit if walking along the river.

    My family thought the scenery was beautiful, but regretted that the pier was dirty and messy. This historically significant pier and its main entrance were overlooked because of their riverside location, which felt like a sign of the attraction management's lack of awareness. For paid attractions, besides the performance tickets, there's a need for improved service and entertainment; hopefully, this can be addressed.

    It's a nice building but what makes it special is the atmosphere and the shows, search for the official programme of the different little performance and wait to see it all, they are worth the money.

    Yueyang Tower Review Ascending Yueyang Tower offers a panoramic view of the vast expanse of Dongting Lake where the water meets the sky, and a sense of its majestic grandeur, "embracing distant mountains and swallowing the Yangtze River." Its upturned eaves and corners exude ancient charm, while inscriptions and poems carry cultural heritage. The spirit of Fan Zhongyan, who famously said "be the first to worry about the world's troubles," adds even greater weight to the view. From the summit, one can gaze upon the boundless blue waters dotted with fishing boats. The beauty of nature and the rich cultural heritage blend seamlessly, making it truly deserving of its title as the foremost of the "Three Great Towers of Jiangnan." It is a must-visit cultural landmark and scenic spot in Yueyang.

    Yuelu Mountain is truly beautiful in autumn. I was the only one there for the 3:30 PM tour, enjoying the perks of a private tour. But the tour guide was incredibly attentive, providing a thorough and detailed explanation – a fantastic experience!

    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.

    I bought a Super VIP ticket for the 19:20 show of "Charming Xiangxi" for 456 yuan, but I booked the wrong time. The staff contacted me in advance and changed my seat to the first row, seats 13 and 14. After entering the theater, it was my first time seeing a large-scale performance up close. I could clearly see the actors' body movements and facial expressions, which was very impressive. I even managed to snatch some wedding candy during the final wedding snatching performance. The indoor performance ended at 20:30, and then we moved to the outdoor acrobatic show, which included bonfire, qigong, darts, and walking on knives, lasting for half an hour. Overall, it was great.

    Visited Tongguan Kiln National Style Park again, this time with the family. Same old routine: Black Stone Ship, Flying Theater, and Iron Flower Show. We also tried the water go-karts this time. The recently released wire stunt equipment is perfect for shooting videos and photos.
