Changsha travel guide Changsha travel guide must-see attractions introduction

In recent years, Hunan Satellite TV has gradually defeated other satellite TV stations to become the big brother in TV stations, and has always been active in realizing the public. So most people are no strangers to Changsha, Hunan. Today, I will lead you to follow my footsteps and walk through every beautiful scenic spot here.

Preparation before departure

1. In Changsha metropolis, you don't need any special preparation to travel, and it is basically portable.

2. You must make a good travel plan, so that you can better arrange the time for playing.

3. Since this trip is a solo trip and there is no fat brother to help me with my things, it is very important to have a good backpack.

It's hot in summer. I recommend several things, such as sunglasses, hats and sun protection.

DAY1 revisiting the old place to find memories

Hunan University: the Millennium change from the academy to the university

The school-running of Hunan University originated from Yuelu Academy, which was founded in Kaibao, Song Taizu in the ninth year (AD 976), and the new current affairs school of colleges and universities, which was founded in the late Qing Dynasty (AD 1897). For more than a thousand years, this place has a long history of learning and endless string songs, and is famous as the "Millennium University".

Tickets: none

Opening hours: all day

Address: Hunan University currently has two campuses, the south campus is located at No.2 Lushan South Road, Yuelu District, and the north campus is located at No.19 Shijiachong Road, Yuelu District. I am visiting the South Campus.

At the intersection of Xiaoxiang Middle Road and Pailou Road, you can see the stone tablet of Hunan University. The two stone pillars next to them are the ruins of the National Hunan University Library, which are full of historical traces.

Go straight along the green archway and you will arrive at Dongfanghong Square. Along the way, you will pass through the School of Architecture, Law School and Art College.

Dongfanghong Square was built by Hunan University during the Cultural Revolution. At that time, in order to love Chairman Mao, this square was built. At the same time, the Art Department of Hunan University designed the portrait of Chairman Mao, which is the only Red Square among all colleges and universities in Hunan Province.

This is the office building of Hunan University. The red brick wall has a sense of time.

There are many green lawns and blooming flowers in the open space between colleges. This is a campus with good environment and air.

Behind the portrait of Chairman Mao is Gordon Road, which goes all the way to Yuelu Mountain, so this name is very appropriate. Because I climbed Yuelu Mountain before, I didn't climb again this time. Other friends who come to Hunan University can go to Yuelu Mountain to see the scenic spots in Changsha, and go to Yuelu Mountain Academy to study the culture of the academy ~

There is always a long queue in front of the store where Hunan cuisine represents stinky tofu, which is very popular.

In addition to delicious food, there are many boutiques selling cultural and creative products about Changsha and Hunan University.

orange island: a trickle in neon flashing.

orange island is the orange island in chairman Mao's poem "independence in cold and autumn, Xiangjiang river going north, orange island everywhere". Looking at Yuelu Mountain in the west, Changsha City in the east, surrounded by water on all sides, stretching for dozens of miles, shaped like a long island and an impact sandbar in Xiangjiang River. Orange Island not only has the elegance of village smoke berthing, but also has the prosperity of Hua Deng. There is a piece of orange forest with clear scenery; The historical and cultural heritage is long and heavy; Floating above Ling Bo, it is known as "China's first continent".

Tickets: free

Opening hours: all day

Address: Xiangjiang Center, Changsha

After visiting Hunan University, I walked along the arched road to the Xiangjiang River. When I walk to the river, I can see an arch. At this time, I understood the meaning of the name Paifang Road. I think this is the original location of Yuelu Academy archway ~

Cross the dam by the river and walk down the stairs to the greenway. You can take a slow walk along the river. There are many people walking and cycling here.

working people, gradually go home to rest; The traffic on the Juzizhou Bridge is gradually increasing; The high-rise buildings on the shore gradually put on a gorgeous light show.

The summer heat makes me feel a little sorry. Originally, I wanted to cross the Orange Island Bridge on foot, and Pozi Street is not far from the other end of the bridge. Finally, I gave up this idea and went to Pozi Street by bus.

Taiping Old Street: Changsha tastes waiting for you.

Taiping Street is the main line of Taiping Old Street, with wuyi avenue in the north, Jiefang Road in the south, Weiguo Street in the west and Sanxing Street and Santai Street in the east. The key areas are Taiping Street, Xipailou, Majiaxiang, Fu Jia Lane, Jinxian Street, Taifuli and other historical blocks. In the reconstructed block, there are cultural relics and modern historical sites such as Jia Yi's former residence, Changhuai well, BenQ Fanwangfu West Pailou, Xinhai Revolution and Progress Association and Sizheng Society. Not only preserved, but also revived time-honored brands with a long history, such as GanYisheng Grain Depot, Lishengyan, Dongting Spring Teahouse and Yichun Garden Teahouse. Walking through the ancient streets, stone arches, Mashi Road, embankment walls, ancient stage and other landmark ancient buildings, you can feel it intuitively.

Admission: free

Opening hours: all day

Address: 5 meters southwest of the intersection of wuyi avenue and Taiping Street, Tianxin District, Changsha

Taiping Street is the most complete street in the ancient city of Changsha, and it is worth punching in.

such an old street, which is neither long nor wide, bears the heavy responsibility of showing the charm of Huxiang culture and embodying traditional commercial folk customs.

Changsha has a city since the Warring States Period, which is the core of the ancient city and has remained unchanged for more than 2, years. In the neighborhood, small green tiles, sloping roofs, white tile ridges, stacked walls and wooden doors and windows are the same features of houses and shops in this area.

An ancient stage with a sense of history, I hope it is as peaceful as a plaque on the stage at any time.

In addition to antique buildings, there are many trendy art shops in Taiping Old Street today.

All kinds of dolls in front of creative shops always attract tourists to stop.

Every store is using its imagination to design different features to attract customers.

Jia Yi's former residence

Jia Yi's former residence was built during the reign of Emperor Wendi of the Western Han Dynasty, and it was the residence of Jia Yi, a university student in Changsha. From 177 BC to 174 BC, Jia Yi, a famous political commentator, thinker and writer in the Western Han Dynasty, lived here. At that time, he was Wang Taifu of Changsha.

DAY2 Day Tour of Tanhe Ancient City

Tanhe Ancient City, Ningxiang: Go into the Western Zhou Dynasty to explore the Four Yangfang Zun. The Zhou Dynasty was the source and heyday of Chinese civilization, which created a splendid cultural miracle. Ningxiang, where it is located, is known as the "hometown of bronze wares in South China". Heavyweights from Siyang, Fang Ding and other countries have been unearthed, which is also the center of ritual and music culture in China. Its Zhou culture gene has been passed down from generation to generation, affecting us to this day.

Opening hours: 1: to 18:

Address: Huangcai Avenue, Huangcai Town, Ningxiang, Changsha

In the morning, I took a bus to Huangcai at Changsha West Bus Station, and bought a ticket leaving at 8: 28 online in advance. As a result, the bus left early because the passengers were full, and left around 8: 1. It takes about 2 hours by car and arrives at Huangcai Town around 1 o'clock. I got off at the main street in town, so I didn't stop because most cars were passing by. After getting off the bus, I hit a motorcycle in the street, and 6 yuan went to the entrance of Tanhe Ancient City. Not far from the main street, about 2 kilometers, 5 minutes by car. Tourists around Changsha are still very suitable for driving.

The design of the gate of Tanhe ancient city scenic spot immediately reminds people of bronzes, which is in line with the historical background that Ningxiang is "the hometown of bronzes in southern China".

That striking sculpture, which combines the square statue of Four Sheep in the Zhou Dynasty and the cultural heritage of Fang Ding, is very distinctive and unforgettable.

The entrance ticket for Tanhe Ancient City is 4 yuan, while the entrance ticket for Tanhe Ancient Love Performance is 16 yuan. It is recommended to buy a package ticket. How can you miss Tanhe's ancient love? The opening hours of the scenic spot are from 1: to 18: , just in time to

walk into the ancient city of Tanhe, and you will enter the world of the Western Zhou Dynasty. There are both quaint and solemn palaces and temples and noisy old streets in the scenic area. Bells, ancient music, poems and ceremonies are everywhere, as if the time of 3, years ago was resurrected again, and all of them convey the breath of civilization from distant times.

As soon as you enter the scenic spot, you can see the King of Wu Square, where the King of Wu has thousands of troops and horses to guide you.

Then there is the Western Zhou Style Street, which is full of Western Zhou style.

standing on the love bridge, you can see the red "Charcoal River" theater and Shui Ge Bar.

I don't know why Shui Ge Bar gives me a sense of Southeast Asia, which is quite unique. Speaking of which, by the way, catering.

Take a stroll along the corridor of historical figures and feel the history of China.

wanzhuan technology

harem generally refers to the living place of the emperor's wives and concubines, which is usually full of politics and secrecy. Walking into the harem of the Western Zhou Dynasty, many strange phenomena occurred one after another. See the peeping wall where beautiful women can take a bath, the piano room where music can be played automatically, the bookshelf that won't fall down, the strange magic mirror and so on. It can open people's eyes and experience the grotesque life in the harem.

I peeped at the beauty bath through the small round hole, and the images presented in it were still dynamic ~

Thanks to the screen in the class, I felt the rhythm of going up without saying a word.

There is a big vat beside it, which can play cricket. Every time someone passes by, they have to come to the last round.

when you walk past this bookshelf, there will be books moving, but they will never fall.

colorful performances

Song Cheng is originally a performing arts kingdom, and Song Cheng Group's Ningxiang Tanhe ancient town naturally needs performing arts, so any colorful performances in the scenic spot will be regrettable.

The Sacrifice Square is very lively, with good performances regularly.

Children's Crafts

There are many projects suitable for children's experience in Tanhe Ancient City. During the summer vacation, the popularity here soared, and the feelings between parents and children also warmed up here.

the second floor is the magic zone. All the facilities in this area are magical. Magic mask, magic makeup, magic clothes, etc. It's all very interesting.

many projects can't be finished or the process is very painful. But here, children have infinite power and want to go through customs.

55-79: Love and hate for three thousand years

Song Cheng has a good reputation for performing arts, and everyone doesn't like it. I was fascinated by watching Charcoal River in Song Cheng before. Now in Tanhe Ancient Town, Ningxiang, Song Cheng. How can you miss the romance of the song dynasty program? This is the soul of Ningxiang culture!

External article: Tanhe National Archaeological Site Park

After the performance, I visited the scenic spots again and made a good farewell. After walking out of the ancient city of Tanhe, I saw the opposite Tanhe National Archaeological Site Park, but it was too late. Ruins Park closes at 4 pm.

Tanheli site is an important site in Xiangjiang River Basin of Western Zhou Dynasty, which consists of palaces, city walls, moats, civilian areas and noble tombs. A large number of pottery, jade and bronzes were unearthed from the site, which confirmed that Tan Heli site was the capital of a country in the Western Zhou Dynasty. At the same time, it also found a breakthrough for deciphering the mystery of "Ningxiang Bronze Group" represented by Siyang Fangzun.
