    Yueyang.Yueyang Tower
    4.1km from downtown
    Highlights: The Yueyang Tower is located in Yueyang City, Hunan Province. Near the shore of Dongting Lake, the Pavilion is one of the Three Great Towers of Jiangnan. It was made famous by the author Fan Zhongyan’s Memorial to Yueyang Tower. When you climb the tower, you will overlook the misty and watery expanse of Dongting Lake. If you are familiar with Fan's Memorial to Yueyang Tower, one of its famous lines may echo in your ears: “First be concerned with the worries of the world and then you can rejoice in its joys.” In addition to climbing the tower to gaze into the distance and reflect on ancient times, the architectural structure of the tower itself is also worth a look. The entire structure is built without a single metal nail or support beam.

    "This time I specially accompanied my friends to Junshan Island by speedboat. The ferry ticket was 100 yuan to and from Junshan Island, which was a bit expensive. It is still recommended to drive or take a taxi or take a four-yuan bus to be more economical and convenient. If you want to see Dongting Lake enter the scenic spot, you can also see the pier. The air on the island is very good, there are many green vegetation on the island, more tea trees, red and white camellias are beautiful! Really eye-catching lungs and heart! It's really good to put down your mobile phone and walk out."

    "Crossing a small ancient street to a square and finally arrived at the Dongting Lake, maybe it is a dry season, but it is better than Xiangyang Lake! Someone on the lakeside photo has not been published. I don't know why the lake is chaotic and not clean?"
    Yueyang
    3.2km from downtown
    Highlights: The Dongting Lake under Yueyang Tower is the relic of Yunmengze in ancient times. Although its area is now twice as small as before, it is still the second largest freshwater lake in the country. Dongting Lake is composed of four large lakes, Dongting Lake and Datong Lake in the east, west and south, presenting a landscape of water flow swamps, river network plains, surrounded by mountains on the east, south and west, and an open horseshoe-shaped basin in the north. The scenery is beautiful and there are many scenic spots, such as: Yueyang Tower, Junshan, Du Fu's Tomb, Yangmo Village, Tiejing Building, Quzi Temple and other historical sites. In Chenglingji, the junction of East Dongting Lake and the Yangtze River, there is a place called Sanjiangkou. From here, you can see Dongting in the distance, but you can see the Xiangjiang River surging northward. The literati and writers of all dynasties have enthusiastically chanted the beautiful Dongting Lake. The "Yueyang Tower" in the Northern Song Dynasty depicts the changing scenery of Dongting Lake from the perspective of Yueyang Tower. The momentum of Dongting Lake is majestic and majestic, and the moonlight of Dongting Lake is soft and magnificent. Even in the gloomy and dark weather, it gives people a unique and secret feeling, arousing people's interest in traveling. Dongting Lake is also a well-known land of fish and rice, with extremely rich products. The main economic fish are carp, grass, tuna, anchovy, herring and so on. Whitebait is its famous product. Shellfish resources are also very rich, up to more than 40 species. In addition, the ramie, Junshan tea and Xianglian abounds in the Lake District, which are well-known both at home and abroad.

    "The scenic spot is relatively large, and those who like to climb the mountain can consider it. However, there are still several maintenance projects during the 11th tourist season, which is a pity; in addition, the fog is too thick in the morning, and a lot of landscape is wasted."
    Pingjiang
    97.6km from downtown
    Highlights: Located where Hunan, Hubei, and Chongqing meet, the Glass Bridge Scenic Area of Shiniuzhai has historically been an important strategic area. In the late days of the Yuan dynasty, peasant leader Tang Kuang led troops here and built fortifications, later recorded by local histories as “Shiniuzhai.” Above Shiniuzhai are limitless views, and below it enticing scenery. It is a geological wonderland of strangely shaped rocks, peaks, and stone caves carved out by nature in so many different forms that the beauty cannot be taken in all at once.
