Zhuangyuan Fangzhou is located in the middle of the Lujiang River, the island is spindle-shaped, about 500 meters long and about 100 meters wide. It was a vegetable garden in the Ming Dynasty and was turned into a mulberry garden in the Qing Dynasty.

The island is surrounded by stone railings, shaded by green trees, birds singing, flowers blooming all year round, and fragrant all over. ❣Transportation 👉🏻Train: Liling Station to Changsha Station→One hour→Ticket price: 15.5r 👉🏻High-speed rail: Liling East to Changsha South→Half an hour→Ticket price: 35r 🎫Ticket: Free 🚃Transportation: Liling 3 Road to Emergency Bureau 【🍲Liling Food】 🍴Restaurants: Sail Building Feather Alley Wei Mountain Fishing Village Liling Meets Jiangnan·Private Kitchen Chen Grandma's Big Stall Bear's Seafood Barbecue Five Flavors Life Aesthetic Restaurant (Liling Quan Road Store) 🍢Snacks: Xiandu Spicy Duck (Headquarters) Deng's Old Brand Oil Fire Sugar Fried Baba (Construction West Road Store) Jiuzhou Fried Chicken Fillet Zhuangyuanzhou Cultural Park
