Changsha is the capital city of the Hunan Province. This was the capital city of the Changsha Kingdom during the Han dynasty. That is why you can find a mausoleum for the Han dynasty’s emperors. This mausoleum is a must-visit place for history junkies, it shows us lots of Chinese civilisation from as early as the 1st century.
For international tourists, it can be quite confusing to get into this city. The best way to get into this city is via Hong Kong. You can just take a China Southern Airlines flight from Hong Kong International Airport.
This city can be categorised as a paradise for shopaholics, there are lots of places where you can buy anything you want cheaply, but most of them are not goods of a high quality. To get the best price, you should be very good at haggling. I strongly recommend you to buy things for less than half of its original price.
Chinese nationalists, who usually revere Mao Zedong, should visit his childhood house. Most of the nationalists also consider the river near this house as the place where Mao trained his body and soul. He used to swim in this river in the winter, so that he got used to with abhorrent circumstances to face.
The accommodation and food in this country can’t be said as classy. However, it’s affordable for most people. You can get a big bowl of fried rice, just for less than a dollar. For tourists who like going out all day long and which only use a hotel room for sleeping at night, you can go to 19 First Fenglin Road where Lushan Hotel is located. It is one of the best hotels where you can pick your choice to stay at. The room is comfortable with middle-class facilities, but I don’t think you should pay more for the breakfast. It is horrible, it is better for you to find a place to eat in the city. One-night rate in that hotel is as cheap as 22 USD.
Overall, this place is a very unique place for people who’d like to see China in two different perspectives. It combines the oriental side of China and the depiction of China as a Communist country.
We hope that this travel guide could make you a good, skilful and well-informed traveller.
