Had a great day here in September 2012, fantastic day to enjoy the park, beautiful scenery, just a very pleasant place to spend an afternoon. The fire work display on a Saturday night just fantastic.

The island in the middle of the Xiang river is called orange island because there are plenty of orange trees growing there. Almost entirely given upto a park the 5km walk to the end does give you a nice view of the city as well as the lakes and gardens on the way. When we visited none of the fountains... More

A beautifully maintained park at the edge of rapidly growing Changsha. You can spend many hours or a day there wandering about the many paths and enjoying the landscaping and views of the river and cityscape.

As it takes quite some time to walk from one end to the other end of the island, people can purchase ticket (Rmb20 per person)... More

Beautifully kept park has many walking paths, 20 RMB carts to take you to the monumental sculpture of Mao's head. No access to the pagoda. Odd, tacky beach park on one end is a spoiler to the beauty. Hard to get late taxis for individual travellers, so we hopped on a city bus to ride to a more busy intersection... More
