Changsha also has a hidden gem for chasing sunsets and stargazing.

⛳Location: Daweishan National Forest Park 🌟Transportation: Self-driving is recommended. You can drive directly to the top of the mountain. It is a 2.5-hour drive from downtown Changsha. 🪪Admission: Adult tickets are CNY 90. Discounts are available for online bookings in advance. Daweishan is the source of the Liuyang River. It is 1,607.9 meters above sea level. The peaks are continuous and the mountains are stacked. The highest peak is Qixing Peak. 🏠Accommodation: You can bring your own tent or rent a tent on the top of the mountain for camping. Liuyang River Source Camping Base is available. If you don't want to sleep in a tent, you can choose Qixing Villa, the hotel closest to the top of the mountain. 🌅Viewing point: For sunset and stargazing, you can choose the 1608 Observatory. If you stay at Qixing Villa and don't want to walk too far, you can go to the top of the mountain from the right side of Qixing Villa (see picture 3), which is also a good stargazing point. 📍Tips: 1. Be sure to check the weather in advance, otherwise it will be a wasted trip. 2. It is windy on the top of the mountain at night. If you want to stargaze, be sure to bring a jacket and a flashlight. 3. If you want to take beautiful photos, be sure to bring a tripod. 4. The mountain road is winding, so drive carefully. If you are prone to motion sickness, prepare motion sickness medicine.

A great place for family leisure in Liuyang

A great place for family leisure in Liuyang

There are many homestays in Liuyang, and after a long selection, we decided to come to this one. We don't like those internet-famous swimming pools for posing without any practical significance. Unexpectedly, it exceeded expectations. There are a total of 12 rooms, each with its own characteristics. I thought that during the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Double Festival, the public area would be crowded and noisy, but it was very quiet and comfortable. The small garden and pool in our own yard have a lot of artistic conception, and tea tables are arranged everywhere. You can camp, trace the stream and barbecue by the small stream at the door, which is very suitable for bringing children for leisure. The rooms also have their own characteristics, and the facilities in the room are very complete, with air conditioning, ceiling fans, and floor heating, tea tables and refrigerators, a very leisurely slow life. The double bed room we booked also has a large bed, and there are suites and villas for large families, a very satisfying parent-child trip.

A Super Detailed Guide to the Liuyang Fireworks Show

A Super Detailed Guide to the Liuyang Fireworks Show

Everything You Need to Know About the Liuyang Fireworks Show 🎆 ⏰Time: Every Saturday from 7:45 pm to 8:30 pm. The schedule may change during major holidays or the Fireworks Festival. The fireworks are set off at 📍Sky Theater every night. The event features a combination of song and dance performances and fireworks. The fireworks show is divided into four chapters, with 2–3 song and dance performances between each chapter. The best and most exciting part of the fireworks show is usually the last moment of the 4th chapter, when the sky is filled with stars. 🚥Transportation: There is no train station in Liuyang City. Visitors from other cities can first travel to Changsha, and then choose one of the following options: 1️⃣ Take a bus to Liuyang and then take a taxi to the fireworks show; 2️⃣ Take a ride-hailing car to the fireworks show after leaving the train station; 3️⃣ Rent a car and drive to the fireworks show. 📍Best Spots: The best spots include Sky Theater, Cijintan, and Changxing City, each with its own pros and cons. 1️⃣ Sky Theater is the closest spot, where you can see fireworks all around you. However, it is not convenient for taking photos of people with fireworks, and some spots may be blocked. 2️⃣ Cijintan is right opposite Sky Theater, with a great view. It is perfect for taking silhouette photos of people with fireworks. However, it currently charges an entrance fee, and you need to take a small path to get there. 3️⃣ Changxing City is right in front of the entrance to Sky Theater, making it a great spot for parking and taking photos. However, it is a bit far from the fireworks. 😋Liuyang Cuisine: You must try authentic Liuyang cuisine when you visit Liuyang. It is perfect with rice and will make your mouth water 🤤 🙋I personally recommend the following restaurants: ➡️Tang Fugui; ➡️Brothers Steamed Dishes Restaurant; ➡️Old Friends; ➡️Hongzhen; You can't go wrong with any of them. 🌟Must-try dishes: Steamed dishes such as sauerkraut fried vermicelli and ribs steamed with pork belly; ⚠️Tips: 1️⃣ Roads will be closed during the fireworks show, so it is best to arrive at the viewing spot half an hour in advance. 2️⃣ Fireworks are not banned in Liuyang. 3️⃣ In addition to fireworks, Liuyang also has beautiful mountains and rivers. It is perfect for camping and river tracing in summer. If you are driving, you can go river tracing during the day and watch the fireworks at night.

Xiangdong's Little Guilin - Liuyang Xiangxing Mountain.

Xiangdong's Little Guilin - Liuyang Xiangxing Mountain.

On the banks of the Jinkeng River in Liuyang, Changsha, there is a group of small mountains called Xiangxing Mountain, including General Mountain, Zhong Mountain, Snake Mountain, Turtle Mountain, Qilin Mountain, Lion Mountain, Elephant Trunk Mountain, and more. The mountains are made of red sandstone and have various shapes, resembling different objects and animals. Elephant Trunk Mountain, in particular, looks like an elephant lowering its head to drink water from the Jinkeng River, with its long trunk reaching into the water. The Jinkeng River is not wide, but its water is clear and pure. This place is known as "Xiangdong's Little Guilin," but it is not very developed, making it a comfortable place to visit.

A springtime affair ends with the sunrise over the starry sea of flowers at Dawei Mountain

A springtime affair ends with the sunrise over the starry sea of flowers at Dawei Mountain

The wind rises, flowers bloom, stars ascend, sunrise. On May 12th, after a two-hour drive from Changsha, I arrived at Dawei Mountain National Forest Park in Liuyang City, to encounter a sea of flowers under the stars at sunrise. When I left Changsha, I had no expectations, and it was still a gloomy overcast day when I reached Liuyang City. It even drizzled a little past seven o'clock, but after ten o'clock, the clouds on the mountain began to disperse, revealing the stars. By two o'clock in the morning, the starry sky was clearly visible. The sunrise came as expected the next morning, and the mountain was extremely clear. The batteries for both the camera and the drone were completely drained! Dawei Mountain National Forest Park Admission: 190 yuan + shuttle bus 20 yuan (The shuttle bus operates from 8:00 to 17:30) Parking is at the Honglian Temple parking lot, now during the Azalea Festival, cars can only park here The star photography spot is next to the source of the Liuyang River, and the sunrise time is around 5:30 in the morning The temperature on the mountain is a bit low, about eighteen degrees at night, so it's necessary to wear a jacket
