#May Day, Changsha IFS #

Because of the epidemic in 2020, I didn't go out and have been working all the time, and I was on the verge of irascibility. My friends around me were also in this state. I just wanted to go out and play every day! Gather a group, three people, and plan to go to Changsha nearby to relax for three days.

The three of them spent their free time looking at B & Bs, booking high-speed rail tickets (Guangzhou South-Changsha South), and choosing a few places to visit!

I took a weekend (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) and took another day off. On the day I went there, I went directly after work. It was 90 o'clock when I arrived in Changsha, and I officially played the next day.

General strategy

DAY1: Changsha IFS-Taiping Street-Xiangjiang River Night View, Juzizhou Head

DAY2: Yuelu Mountain (Aiwanting, Yuelu Academy)--Hunan University--Meixi Lake

DAY3: Hunan Province Museum-Return Trip

Changsha IFS

I'm afraid that there will be too many people on Saturday, so I can go early and check in for new landmarks and KAWS sculptures.

You have to be sure about the time, otherwise you will still have to queue up in a long line, and you can make a concave shape there at will, until you are satisfied with the shots and no one will rush you. (But it's best not to take too long ~ Everyone understands each other, haha)

This year marks the third anniversary of Changsha IFS. Changsha IFS and the international fashion magazine Marie Claire jointly organized two exhibitions, her to Marie Claire immersive installation exhibition and her to Pink's Spring Flamingo installation. Her Marie Claire Immersive Installation Exhibition is located in the west atrium of the third floor. Several areas are very good to take photos, such as the interactive photo area, catwalk, screening area and check-in photo area. It has a strong retro style and is very suitable for Hong Kong style and chanel style style sister, big films are released in seconds, really!

In the sculpture garden on the seventh floor, there is her Pink Spring Flamingo installation. The famous online celebrity flamingo is really a big deal! This exhibition is really beautiful. There are a large group of pink flamingos under the sky, and there is a feeling of tropical rainforest. It is really amazing to take pictures when the weather is good. The fairies must take pictures here and take pictures anytime., it becomes cute in one second!

When you are tired from shopping, you will also have a lot to eat and drink in Changsha IFS. The first choice for drinking must be tea and beautiful color! (On the first floor of LG, friends who want to drink can order in advance in the Mini programs.) Not only are there many brand stores, there is also a lot of food here, so there is no need to worry too much.

My friends and I went directly to Luxiang Town. The dishes were too attractive. I loved this papaya jelly. It relieved the tiredness and spicy food. The fish head looked very appetizing and tasted even more delicious. If you must have a vegetable, you can really try this okra. The garlic and sauce on it match just right. I can eat most of the bowl with okra. It is cost-effective and worth recommending

I heard from the staff that in early May, Changsha IFS holds the "Changsha Taste and Distant Visitors 'Tour Ceremony" event. From May 1 to 15, foreign tourists at Changsha IFS who spend more than 3000 yuan that day can receive a free "Changsha Taste" gift certificate combination!! (The gift certificate combination brands include: Tea Yanyue, Momo Dim Sum Bureau, Chili Tree, etc.) With up to two consumer receipts, ID cards, air and train tickets, you can limit yourself to one copy per person. The quantity is limited. Anyone who plans to come in May can come and collect wool as much as possible.

Next, there were various snacks on Taiping Street. I tasted authentic Changsha stinky tofu for the first time. This is a small street shop, but it was quite delicious. The man who fried stinky tofu said that if it wasn't as delicious as other restaurants, I would give it free.

Pork cakes with plum vegetables are super delicious. The queue is long. They are roasted and eaten right away. The plum vegetables inside are a bit like olive vegetables. The taste of plum vegetables cannot be tasted. They are crisp and tender.

Tea looks beautiful! I couldn't help but buy another cup! I really came here because of fame! The female classmates who have been to Changsha all work in Amway. How fragrant! It's so delicious!!! Moreover, Changsha is filled with beautiful tea...

The scenic area itself is free, but sightseeing buses and small trains require tickets, so we chose the small train. There are five pick-up and drop-off points for small trains, and everyone can choose freely. The terminal of the sightseeing bus is still some distance away from the Mao Zedong Youth Art Sculpture. You have to walk to get off the bus. You can take the walking path along the Xiangjiang River and the wind blowing from the Xiangjiang River gives a different feeling.

Yuelu Academy-Aiwan Pavilion-Yuelu Mountain

When I entered the south gate of Yuelu Mountain, I bought a cable car ticket to go down the mountain. I was alone at 25rmb. I first arrived at Yuelu Academy, wandered at the door and left, and then came to Aiwan Pavilion (mainly to visit Yuelu Mountain, which was a bit of a cursory look).

Originally, he wanted to go up on foot, but was later persuaded by reality. He finally took a scenic spot transportation bus to the top of the mountain. The fog on the top of the mountain was thick and the temperature was a little low. Fortunately, I wore a coat to go out, but the fog affected my vision and made it impossible to overlook Yuelu Mountain. The scenic area is too big, and I only passed a few places when I went down the mountain. On the way, I also passed through Ancient Yuelu Temple.

meixi Lake

Because it was so popular that I wanted to visit Meixi Lake International Culture and Art Center

The visual impact is great! The weather is beautiful and it's really amazing to take pictures!

We first took the bus and then transferred to the festival island in Meixi Lake. On the bus, we saw some buildings with distinctive designs. Later, we learned that it was an international cultural and artistic center.

Hunan Province Museum (closed on Monday, with ID card)

Looking at history can really calm people down. Try to see as many interesting cultural relics as possible, and you can buy them around the museum. The ones you like most are cultural relics related to Hanfu, which will be very nice.

After soothing their irascible mood this time, everyone agreed that they really had to go out often, otherwise they would really feel suffocated. My best friends are already planning their next travel destination haha ~
