Changsha | Day 3 - Day 13

The past eleven days in Changsha flew by in a blur of scenic views, city strolls, and autumn warmth that felt more like spring. The weather shifted gradually, warming up each day; a surprising contrast for mid-autumn, but it made exploring the city all the more enjoyable.

I had the chance to visit Yuelu Mountain (Yuelu Shan) and take in its lush greenery and famous landmarks. The winding trails and historic temples provided some incredible views over the city—an oasis of nature nestled just outside Changsha’s bustling heart.

While there are more spots around Changsha that I managed to explore, I’ll be posting a more detailed summary soon, complete with images to round out the experience.

Today is my last full day here before beginning the journey home.
