During May Day, Changsha's prosperous business district was crowded with people, tourists from all over the country flocked to it, and the subway passenger flow intensity ranked second in the country. During this May Day holiday, Changsha has truly become the "top" Internet celebrity city in the country. The doors of various restaurants are filled with diners who have come here, and the sales results of many restaurants have reached record highs.

I didn't expect tourism in Changsha to be so popular during May Day. My family and I actually embarked on the high-speed train from Guangzhou to Changsha for a short three-night and two-day trip. I originally wanted to avoid cities with heavy crowds during the May Day peak period, but I didn't expect that Changsha's May Day holiday would suddenly become so popular.

When you go to Changsha, you must go to these streets and alleys to eat

In so many cities in China, there are countless snacks of various flavors. Why is Changsha known as the "Capital of Food"?

Hunan is an area that likes spicy food. You must have spicy food at least when you eat anything. It's really fun to have spicy food! The girls in our Greater Hunan are called Xiangmei and also called spicy girls, which means that they can eat spicy food. This shows how much Hunan likes "spicy" and "heavy taste" city.

Taiping Old Street, Denglong Street and Pozi Street have many historical delicacies

Changsha also has a lot of snacks, and tourists from other places come here for tourism just to taste the specialty food here.

Taiping Street in Changsha is not only the most complete street with the original street pattern preserved in the ancient city of Changsha. In addition to the classical visual impact brought by the iconic ancient architectural symbols such as Shipaifang, Mashi Road, Fenghuo Wall, and Ancient Stage, there are also many delicious snacks inside.

During May Day, the flow of people here is very popular!

The aroma of various snack bars on Pozi Street wails to your nostrils

Changsha Pozi Street, with a long history of more than 1200 years, is a veritable thousand-year old street and a representative of Huxiang culture. After the "Wenxi Fire", Pozi Street was destroyed and gradually became silent.

Pozi Street, together with Shanghai's City God Temple, Nanjing's Confucius Temple, and Suzhou's Guanqian Street, is known as one of the four famous snack streets in China. Huxiang's food culture has a long history. As a gathering place for Changsha's delicious snacks, Pozi Street fully reflects Changsha's local characteristics and regional dining style.

Of course, the main thing to experience when coming to Changsha is the authentic Hunan flavor. Fish head with chopped pepper, fried pork with chili pepper, and Mao's braised pork are all delicacies that have come out of Dongting Lake and are popular in Greater China. There are also many delicious foods that only exist in Hunan. Don't miss them when you come.

When we arrived in Changsha, our first choice was an Internet celebrity store. There were already hundreds of people waiting at the entrance of this store. It was so popular that we waited at the entrance of this store for an hour and a half before entering the store for dinner.

Changsha stinky tofu smells bad and tastes delicious

Stinky tofu is also very famous in Changsha. Although stinky tofu smells bad, it tastes very fragrant, especially when the juice ingredients burst in the first bite. It is really super delicious. There are also various brands of stinky tofu in Changsha, and each family's recipe is slightly different, so it is recommended to taste it.

Changsha is the capital of Hunan Province, which can be seen from this. However, Changsha can be known as the "Capital of Food" not only because of its heavy taste, but there are also long queues at the entrance of many shops, each holding a bowl and eating while walking. Pedestrians by cover their noses. They can eat very well.

You must eat a bowl of rice noodles when you come to Changsha

A friend introduced me to Changsha that I must not forget to taste Changsha's most famous bus Xincun rice noodles. Unexpectedly, I was going to take a taxi to eat a bowl of rice noodles in the morning. The taxi driver told me that I have to queue up for half an hour to eat it at this rice noodle shop. If I need half an hour to eat a bowl of rice noodles, I'm really not interested. Later, the driver introduced us to another "Taste Hunan Food" rice noodle shop. The taste was also good. The flour was extremely cheap. The flour was 14 yuan per bowl. The price was super cost-effective and the taste was very strong. Add any small ingredients. I added a lot of my favorite sour beans. The soup is rich but not greasy at all. I call it soul soup.

Changsha's new beverage "Certain Tea" has attracted a large number of young people to queue up to buy it

This milk tea shop that integrates beauty, culture, service and taste is popular throughout Changsha. Every lively street in Changsha has tea color. Many foodies from other cities come here. The most classic milk tea is "Youlan Latte", nut cream is super delicious, and there is also one of their sister shops called Zhihu Tea. The cheese milk lid is also a first-class, and the way to drink it is different.

For a cup of milk tea, I could queue for more than half an hour. I was also drunk. On the micro headline, I asked netizens about this mystery. There were more than 500 replies, all kinds of replies. Through this small cup of milk tea, the questions also reflect the values of various groups of people.

The short two-day and three-night trip in Changsha during the May Day holiday ended so soon? There is a little reluctance and nostalgia. Although it is not long, there are many things worth remembering. It only takes two and a half hours to take the high-speed train from Guangzhou to Changsha, and I will come here often in the future.
