The 7-day National Day holiday is a good time to travel. Young friends are in a panic stage of preparing for war. It is really difficult to find scenic spots with few people, good scenery, and no traffic jams. Hunan, with good mountains and rivers, has many high-quality tourist attractions: Zhangjiajie, Nanyue Hengshan, Dongjianghu, Yuelu Mountain, etc. However, with the development of tourism, more and more tourists are visiting popular attractions. In addition, bringing the elderly and children, I really didn't want to go to the old scenic spots to join in the fun, so I listened to my friend's recommendation and prepared to go to Shiyan Lake, a AAAA scenic spot around Changsha. It's right in front of my home and has convenient transportation. It's about 40 minutes by car from the city. It's great to go back and forth in one day!

The smell of old Changsha

The National Song and Dance Square is singing and dancing

Walking through the windmill corridor, cheerful music enters my ears. Starting from 8:30 in the morning, at regular intervals, boys and girls from ethnic minorities are singing and dancing. Tourists can beat African drums on the side and make the national song and dance square The square is surrounded into a circle, relying on the beautiful lake and water, and it seems to have become a natural stage. Many elderly people and children sway with the music, gaining the joy of being away from the secular world.

Cruise boat + along the lake plank road, slow-paced stroll, suitable for the elderly for vacation

Taking a large cruise ship to visit Shiyan Lake and listening to the young and beautiful tour guide explain the stories that happened here, I couldn't help but think of going to the park in my childhood and rafting on the lake with my parents. In the early morning of late autumn, a layer of mist floated on the lake. Walking by boat is like "the boat is walking in the fog and the person is swimming in the painting", which makes people feel relaxed and relaxed and unforgettable. Walking along the lake plank road is suitable for the elderly. Enjoy the scenery of the lake along the way. The forest coverage rate of the scenic area reaches more than 98%. Even in the cold winter, green leaves and jungles can be seen everywhere. The air rich in negative oxygen ions is a little sweet and easy to make people intoxicated.
