Overview

Hunan is a land of overlapping mountains, rivers, and lush green valleys, possessing both pristine and mysterious beauty. Dongting Lake, vast and expansive, lies to the north, shimmering like a mirror under the morning sun. Mountain ranges such as Mount Yiling, Mount Jiuzhaigou, and the Yangjia Mountain range create a winding horizon, shrouded in mist during the early morning. The terraced fields, rice paddies, suspension bridges, and ethnic minority villages interspersed with ancient forests provide a sense of tranquility and closeness to nature. As dusk falls, the red light dyes the surface of the lake, the shimmering light stretches between the mountains and the water, making the whole region look like an ink wash painting.
