A heavenly lake with the same color as a glacier lake! It's in Xiangtan!
Jinxia Mountain Heavenly Lake is a deep lake formed by the accumulation of water in an abandoned mine. Because it is rich in mineral elements, it also presents a mysterious jade color similar to that of a plateau glacier lake! When you walk in, you will see the green lake, sparkling, like a blue-green gem. Jinxia Mountain Forest Park is located in Xiangtan County, Xiangtan City, Hunan Province. It is not a particularly large forest park. After entering the park, you can see the signs on the road: Tudi Temple-Jinxia Mountain Square-Tianhu-Wu Daqiao. The Tianhu is known as the small Jiuzhaigou in Hunan. It's very beautiful.
Location: Jinxia Mountain Forest Park, Xiangtan County, Hunan Province

Tips: Go to the heavenly lake with your friends, don't get too close! Pay attention to safety. Bring some food, mosquito repellent and sunscreen.

When the Northeastern big flower coat meets the southern rapeseed field!
Unopened rapeseed 🌱 take a wave first
The cloudy day is too photogenic
My return to the village standard: the old and fiery Northeastern big flower coat, and the twist braid👧
It's simply a perfect match with the large rapeseed field
📷 Shooting the scenery: You can find a good-looking rapeseed field as the background
You can also interact with the dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, and geese at home, it feels more flavorful haha

✔Luokou Ancient Town
The existing old street facilities are complete, the uniform bluestone streets, the staggered wooden stilt houses, the exquisite relief carvings, have a strong simple flavor of the small towns in the south of the Yangtze River🎐. It's very comfortable to blow the wind🍃, take a walk, look at the old houses covered with green vines, and listen to the faint Sanskrit sound of Cihang Pavilion in the quiet riverside town~
✔Yangmeizhou
Come to Xiangtan to see the "sea"🏖~ Yangmeizhou, an island in the river, basically retains the original ecological scenery, surrounded by water on all sides, with beautiful scenery. The trees in the park are lush🌳, the crows are fragrant, and the wild interest is full. There is a large grassy area under the trees on the shore, which is very suitable for camping and picnicking🏕.
✔Abandoned Shipyard
Located next to Yangmeizhou Water Park, it is a private shipyard🚢, with two large ships abandoned for more than ten years, like stranded whales on the shore, suitable for creation and shooting here🤳!
✔Yaowan
A place with deep cultural heritage in Xiangtan🎏, the environment in the ancient street is beautiful, and the distribution of cultural relics and historic sites is very dense. Walking on the bluestone street, you can feel the collision of history and reality✨.
✔Wanlou
The architecture is magnificent and the colors are bright and beautiful. It stands tall and straight, with beautiful eaves, wing corners lifted, and majestic momentum. The pillars in the hall are painted with figures, flowers, birds, and landscapes, with fine painting skills and lifelike🖼.
