ChangSha night drive, HuNan province

"I want to take you on a tour of the night view of Changsha City. The city's nights are very lively, with streets brightly lit even at 2 a.m. We start our journey from the famous tourist attraction, the Orange Island Bridge, where the winds are strong and the lights of the buildings are beautiful and well-organized. The carefully designed lights create a unified and futuristic atmosphere. We then visit Wanda Plaza and the Golden Eagle International Shopping Center, where the towering buildings are particularly spectacular at night.
