Changsha: A 3-Day "Chill" Getaway! ☀️🚕

#summervacay My recent 3-day, 3-night trip to Changsha was definitely a "lie flat" version, and I loved it! I traveled entirely by high-speed train, going from Qingdao to Changsha, and then from Changsha to Shanghai. I stayed at a hotel near Chaozong Street, which was super convenient for getting everywhere. The best part? It was less than 300 RMB per night – an absolute steal! Getting around Changsha was incredibly affordable. Over four days, I only took the bus twice and the subway once; the rest of the time, I relied on Didi (ride-sharing). Since it was still quite hot and humid during my visit, many of my planned activities got scrapped. My daily routine usually involved heading out to one spot in the morning, then retreating to the hotel for AC and a nap, before venturing out again in the evening. It was the perfect way to beat the heat and truly relax! #changsha #chinatravel #chillvacation #chaozongstreet #affordabletravel #citybreak
