长沙 VLOG 01 CC字幕 | 时隔10年重游橘子洲，意外进入民国时期建筑，改造成海关公廨博物馆，第一次参观，意外收获，City Walk
Hello, everyone! Today, I’ve come to Orange Isle. It’s quite cold, and I noticed it’s snowing. It snowed yesterday, but I didn’t come. Actually, I could have come yesterday, but… It was too cold, you know? So, I didn’t come. Because it snowed heavily yesterday. I haven’t seen such heavy snow in Changsha since 2008.
Except for that big snowfall in 2008, we haven’t had such heavy snow. And then, if you look at Orange Isle, Today, the sun is out. Just entered from the entrance. In the past, about ten years ago, These things didn’t exist. Since then, I mean… Changsha… This tourist destination has become more popular.
They started requiring reservations. So, if you want to come, you need to make a reservation. And then, if you’re coming from abroad or from another city, uh, if you’re coming from overseas or another city, For domestic visitors, it’s probably okay, because it’s basically on WeChat. Search for the
Public account of Yue Lu Shan. And the public account of Orange Isle, and you can uh, make a reservation. You scan the QR code. I don’t know if you can scan passports here or foreign IDs or identity cards. Uh… Because he also has a place for scanning IDs. Uh, location.
So, I don’t know if it can be scanned, but he has two options. He probably also has an official website for reservations. I’ll put the website up later. Like this exit, it didn’t exist before. And The tour buses weren’t this many. There weren’t as many people before. It’s just that now,
Since it became a tourist attraction, There are more tourists now. Because it’s become a tourist attraction, Now, there are more tourists, So now, if you want to come, you basically have to make a reservation. If you don’t have a reservation, you can’t enter. Like us, local residents,
It’s most convenient to just buy a bottle of mineral water at the supermarket. You don’t need anything else. And I don’t like drinking milk tea anyway. So, if you don’t like it, Well, if you don’t like milk tea, 56 00:02: 29,300 –> 00:02:30,933 Just make sure to reserve and come in directly. Um…
Here, my suggestion is If you have enough time, it’s best to walk. If you have enough time, it’s best to walk. And… Actually, on this top part, In the middle, There are only a few buildings. Not many buildings. If you like… Uh… To have fewer people around,
Say you don’t want so many people walking with you, Like both sides here and the opposite side of the riverbank, are all walkable. And you can walk all the way to the innermost part of Orange Isle. And if you want to choose, Choose to take this sightseeing car.
The, uh, innermost part of Orange Isle. Then, you have to make a choice. Choose to take this sightseeing car. There are many shops opened up here now. And mainly, there are some milk tea shops. Uh… This side’s consumption might be cheaper for tea drinks. Because it’s a branded chain.
He won’t have additional pricing here. So, for us, local residents, The most convenient thing is to buy a bottle of mineral water at the supermarket. Or, there are a few western restaurants, But the consumption here is relatively high. However, for Tea Yan Yue Se, it’s relatively cheaper. Because it’s a branded chain.
After all, it’s a branded chain. He won’t have additional pricing here. So, for us, local residents, The most convenient thing is to buy a bottle of mineral water at the supermarket. And I don’t like drinking milk tea anyway. Um… Just buy a bottle of mineral water at the supermarket.
You don’t need anything else. And I don’t like drinking milk tea anyway. Well, if you don’t like it, Just make sure to reserve and come in directly. If you see so many cars or people, you can go straight down. Here, there are fewer people, and if you like to see
The scenery of water and mountains, you can. And here, I feel you can take good shots of Yue Lu Shan. Do you see it? Across the river is Yue Lu Shan in Changsha, with an altitude of about over 500 meters. I haven’t researched the exact data because
I’m not too concerned about these things. To be honest, I’m more of a homebody. There are many places I don’t like to go out alone. But after shooting this Vlog, I feel like I should go out more. This area used to be inhabited. This area used to have residents.
It used to be called Water-Land Island. Or you can call it Orange Isle. Then, on this upper part, in the middle, there were only a few buildings. Not many buildings. If you prefer to have fewer people around, say you don’t want too many people walking with you,
Both sides here and the opposite side of the riverbank are all walkable. And you can walk all the way to the innermost part of Orange Isle. And if you want to choose, choose to take this sightseeing car. The innermost part of Orange Isle. Then, you have to make a choice.
Choose to take this sightseeing car. There are many shops opened up here now. And mainly, there are some milk tea shops. Uh… The consumption on this side might be cheaper for tea drinks. Because it’s a branded chain. They won’t have additional pricing here. So, for us, local residents,
The most convenient thing is to buy a bottle of mineral water at the supermarket. And I don’t like drinking milk tea anyway. Um… Just buy a bottle of mineral water at the supermarket. You don’t need anything else. And I don’t like drinking milk tea anyway. Well, if you don’t like it,
Just make sure to reserve and come in directly. If you have many cars or people, you can just go straight down. 158 00:06 :43,166 –> 00:06:45,433 On this side, there are fewer people, and if you like to see the scenery of water and mountains, you can.
And here, I feel you can take good shots of Yue Lu Shan. Do you see it? Across the river is Yue Lu Shan in Changsha, with an altitude of about over 500 meters. I haven’t researched the exact data because I’m not too concerned about these things.
To be honest, I’m more of a homebody. There are many places I don’t like to go out alone. But after shooting this Vlog, I feel like I should go out more. This area used to be inhabited. This area used to have residents. It used to be called Water-Land Island.

And mainly, there are some milk tea shops. Uh… The consumption on this side might be cheaper for tea drinks. Because it’s a branded chain. The weather here is quite strange. There are no distinct seasons now, only summer and winter. It means there is no clear transition between seasons. There is no middle ground.
Now, the most vivid impression I have is that sometimes in December here, it can be 28 or 30 degrees Celsius. It’s really… We are somewhat above the Tropic of Cancer. We are beyond the Tropic of Cancer. Technically, it should be entering the winter season. Uh, the season. But sometimes it can be
28 degrees in December, and at night, there is a significant temperature difference. It can be around 10 degrees cooler at night. At night, it might be… Around 10 degrees or so. And then, suddenly, meaning, the weather in December, might be, these days, around 30 degrees. And suddenly, if a cold front comes down,
It can drop by 20 degrees or so, to a few degrees. So, the weather here is very strange now. I feel like I don’t really like it. And when it’s hot, it’s quite hot. It reaches 38, 39 degrees. Such high temperatures in summer. And this is the pier for the sightseeing boat.
You can skip this weather. If you guys want to come, I recommend you come in the evening in summer. I haven’t been on it. I don’t know how much it costs either. I haven’t tried it. I don’t know how much it costs. I’ll try it in summer and see.
Going in winter is indeed too cold, and the wind by the river is quite strong. It’s not very comfortable. And look at this snow. Here, it’s basically… I feel like some of it melted, but most of it is manually placed. Most of this snow is arranged manually, like on the trees over there.
Because if you look at the trees over there, you might not see it clearly, but theoretically, during snow melting, the snow wouldn’t all fall off the trees at once. You see, here, all of it has fallen off. On the leaves of the trees. I don’t know the exact length of this trail.
Anyway, I can tell you the distance is like walking from Wuyi Square to that place, probably uh… There is a place along the riverside called Poly International. Over there, by the riverside, around Nanhu Road. There is a public facility not far away. Uh, a restroom. Yeah.
So, you don’t have to worry about that. The only thing to worry about is that you might need to buy a pack of those small tissues to carry with you. Um, small tissues. See? That bridge over there is our Changsha’s Hou Rock Bridge. Also known as the Third Bridge. Yeah. It was built
In how many years? I don’t know. Anyway, this bridge behind us, this Hou Rock Bridge, was probably built in the 1970s. Built in the 70s, yeah. It has been in service for many years. I remember my mom saying they used to do volunteer labor, carrying hemp stones and other materials, to build this
Xiangjiang First Bridge. Our river is called Xiangjiang. Xiangjiang First Bridge. Xiangjiang First Bridge. And this bridge, Xiangjiang First Bridge, or First Bridge for short, used to have a toll. In the 1990s, the toll station was over there. See, like that um, next to that tall building.
We also sometimes jokingly call it a syringe. Also called a syringe, like in Malaysia, “the syringe.” Mm. It’s over there, near that place. We sometimes joke and call it “the syringe.” Yeah, it’s built on top of that bridge. And it was five yuan, I think. And I remember motorcycles were two yuan.
How much was it? Anyway, that’s how the toll for crossing the bridge was calculated back then. The toll. Back then, like this Orange Isle here, next to the First Bridge, on the side of the First Bridge. Yeah, this small bridge connects to Orange Isle.
It’s like from the other side of the river, the other side of the river. Over there, also an injector, and then you have to walk a bit forward. That riverside has a small bridge. It directly connects from the river embankment, this river embankment here. On this side of the embankment.
Directly to Orange Isle. And then, on this side, our pier used to be. Um… Orange Isle has a pier. That means you can quickly go from Orange Isle directly to the other side of our river, the east side of the river, to the current Wuyi Square. Across the river. That’s the other side.
In the past, in terms of transportation, it was basically like this. And then, in front of this First Bridge, far away, there is another one called Xiangjiang Second Bridge. We used to call it the North Bridge. As for the North Bridge, from my memory, understanding, and growing up, it has existed.
It has been repaired many times. But this kind of old bridge has a drawback, which is that there is no separation on the sidewalk. I see. Because later, we built several bridges in Changsha. I feel like this kind of old bridge doesn’t have this separation. I see.
Also, there are separate lanes for pedestrians and vehicles. Um, I think that’s good. Like these old bridges, they don’t have that. We also call them non-motorized vehicles, just bicycles. But they are separated. Separated for walking. I think that’s good. For this kind of old bridge, it doesn’t have this.
Um, now the Xiangjiang water is quite clear, you see. See it? But every year, in the summer, the Xiangjiang water because Changsha here is in Hunan, its rainfall time is relatively concentrated. It may not rain. It may not rain in Changsha
Because upstream of Changsha, there are some places that have much more rainfall. Then it all comes here. Then, it goes north. And going north, it becomes very muddy. Going north, it becomes very turbid. And this should be the nest built by the swallows. So, later, Orange Isle became
Like a backyard for the citizens of Changsha. At that time, there weren’t many shops here. And you could just come and go as you pleased. Now, it’s like they don’t allow entry after 10 p.m. here. So, let me talk about how to get to Orange Isle now.
There are several ways to get up here now. One is to take the subway, Line 2. If you’re going to take Line 2, basically, using Wuyi Square as the central axis, that is, that Wuyi Avenue, you can basically take Line 2. Um… The best way, because if you are here for tourism,
You will definitely go to Wuyi Square. Then you can take Line 2 at Wuyi Square or the Xiangjiang Middle Road station. To take Line 2. Um, I suggest that if you are coming for tourism, avoid some periods, like crowded periods, such as the May 1st holiday. The Spring Festival,
And our National Day, October 1st. On those days, I can tell you for sure that if you come, it’s best to walk here. Enter if you can walk. As for the subway… No need to think. Moreover, here you basically see crowds of people. You can’t see anything. You see, you can’t go far.
Many people come. This isn’t just boasting. It’s true, I feel it myself. It’s true, I feel it myself. You see, I haven’t been here for over ten years, right? Ever since, I mean, after the tourism industry in Changsha developed, I don’t go to crowded places during holidays,
Like during the Chinese New Year and festivals. Places that are relatively hot, I avoid. Because there are too many people. Not interesting. I feel it’s not interesting. What’s the point of being crowded? Right, and it feels like you can’t breathe. Ah. After this experience, I think I’ll buy a GoPro. Without a GoPro,
Holding this isn’t very convenient. It’s like having one hand unable to do anything. This filming isn’t very convenient. Not very convenient. And it’s cold today. In the summer, I’ll see if I can get a good night filming device. Ah, I don’t have a good night filming device.
We’ll see about that in the summer. Like our nightlife here, if you don’t go to places like Jiefang West Road, those places, by the riverside, are quite fun. You say you like to drink, sitting by the riverside, having tea or coffee. Sometimes if you don’t want to go to a coffee shop,
By the riverside, there are tea stalls. You know, friends in Chengdu might be more familiar. Chengdu also has those places where you can drink tea. In the summer, we have those tea stalls by the riverside. If you like to drink, sit by the riverside, have tea,
Bring some cold dishes, and bring some beer. Yeah. And playing board games is also possible. Just sit there, chat with friends, and play some board games. Yeah. Play some board games, it’s all good. Bring some cold dishes and sit by the river, then bring some beer. Then sit there and chat with friends.
Yeah. Play some board games, it’s all good. The Third Bridge is getting closer, and that building in front of us is called Poly International. Oh, this isn’t Poly International. It’s built near the new shops. Basically, if you see this building, it’s not far. Just not far.
And now you see, that over there is the sightseeing boat. But it’s one of those. It’s one of those. But there’s a better one for sightseeing. There’s an even more beautiful one. Especially during the night cruise, it looks better during the night cruise. It looks better during the night cruise.
Because you can see the entire night view of the Xiangjiang River. It’s like it splits the Xiangjiang River in half from the middle, and it goes around to the other side. It’s like it splits the Xiangjiang River in half from the middle, and it goes around to the other side.
Then it goes around and comes back. And it circles back to the other side. They probably charge by sections. Different sections have different prices. The ranges are different. Then, at the Second Bridge, they also have a dock. He directly comes from that side of the Second Bridge. That one is a bit further.
That one is a bit further. That one, you can only take it in the summer, just for fun. You see, now the tourists here are indeed quite a few. The weather is nice today, no haze. And now, the high-rise building directly across from us, this one is called the Orange Island Head.
Oh, this isn’t Poly International. Oh, this isn’t Poly International. This is a newly built property. They’re all built along the riverside. Poly International is up ahead, you’ll see it if you see that building, you won’t be far. This is Orange Island Head. But I can tell you that Poly International is up ahead.
You see, this is the Orange Island Head now turning around. Now he’s finally turning around from the Orange Island Head and going back around there. There are quite a few tourists. This is Poly International, can you see it? This is Poly International. It’s probably that far. From your perspective,
Walking from the position of the Xiangjiang First Bridge to here, I estimate it’s about 3 kilometers. 3 kilometers, definitely. Based on my experience of delivering food for many years, I would say 3 kilometers is reasonable. 3 kilometers should be about right. Alright, let’s head back this way.
I suggest coming back in the evening. Let’s go up there and head back. Feels like there’s no need to edit all of this. Just upload it directly. Can be a bit lazy. I’ve always loved you like this. This pavilion is also visited later. Later, sitting in this scenic area.
Because from what I remember, this place used to have residences on it. Wow, so many people. And there are police cars maintaining order. The police are probably maintaining order because there are too many people here. And here, do you see the statue of Chairman Mao? Too many people.
This is the statue of Chairman Mao. Actually, it should have come yesterday. It might have been more atmospheric yesterday. All the snow fell on it. Good. Quite a few people are shooting TikToks here. See how many people are here? They should have come with a tour group.
They should all be with a tour group. There are also many who came on their own. More or less. See how many people are here? All densely packed. So if you want to leave quickly when you walk to Zhoutou, it’s better to walk along the riverbank. If you’re not in a hurry,
You can also walk along the riverbank. You see, there are so many people. They all came on the sightseeing cars. The sightseeing car ride probably takes less than ten minutes. Less than ten minutes. Let’s find a… My suggestion is, if you want to go this way, go along the riverbank.
Are you not in a hurry? Because after you come here and see it, you can directly walk back along this path. Or you can walk slowly. But if you want to go fast, I suggest walking along the riverbank. If you don’t want to be crowded. You can also walk along the riverbank.
See how many people there are? Alright. It’s almost coming out. If you come here in the summer, this tree is the orange tree. It really has oranges on it. But you’re not allowed to pick them. Do you see if any have fallen? If they fall, you can pick one.
I think it should be fine. Picking is definitely not allowed. There used to be many different types of trees planted here. This pavilion, see it? I’m afraid to climb. Haven’t been here in so many years. They’ve added a lot of facilities here. Things like those guardrails to stop cars.
Like the one on this stone. Those things. They didn’t exist before. There’s an engraving on this stone called Orange Island Head. A place for tourists to take pictures. Proves that you’ve been here. Whether you came by car or by sightseeing car or walked here. Change hands. So, when we first opened here,
Many young people used to come here at night. To have romantic moments here. And at night, they would play very soothing music here. Romantic, right? Then at night, here… Sometimes, he would play very soothing music. Like Kenny G’s “Going Home.” Letting you finish your romance here and go home.
Oh, there’s a Tianxin Pavilion near my home. It is… Indeed, there is a historical site. It’s the ancient city wall. Because that place has good landscaping. It can basically be covered with birds every morning. My home has a balcony with many flowers. When the time comes, birds come to eat the flower seeds.
And some fruits. The white orchids, there are magpies that come every time. To eat. And then, I once encountered a swallow at my home. On our balcony where the stainless steel protective window is. It built a nest on the top of that protective window. But not long after,
For some reason, the nest disappeared. I don’t know why. I saw it. I want the sun. The sun and my camera. See, this is the artificial lake. Which way should we go? It used to be open in the middle. You could come straight from there. I could come straight from that place.
Now it’s separated. Oh, the bamboo forest over there is all flattened. You can see it’s flattened. Look at the branches. This one is obviously cut. Probably cut. The gap is different. The ground here is all frozen. Around here, probably from May to June, that garden in the middle has wild butterflies.
They breed on these flowers. It looks better when you come during that time. Also, I encountered once, a swallow at my home. Uh… It didn’t have that maybe it’s not that many species. But it’s indeed wild. Because we don’t have that place specifically for breeding uh, butterflies. Institutions. Or kept by people.
And also, in the summer, on the pond side, dragonflies There are red and green dragonflies. A lot. Especially on the side of the pond. But this time, when I went to the three countries, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, I felt that the color of the Samsung is a bit off.
As soon as the sky was really blue there were severe breaks. Very, very severe. Oh, can’t we go this way? Oh, let’s take a look. We can go, we can go. Wow, it’s all bent. This is a bit exaggerated. This is really a bit exaggerated. This bamboo suffered heavy losses this year.
All bent. Haha haha Looks plump, haha. Indeed, when there are many tourists, there are more cars here. There weren’t so many cars before. Not so many cars. I walked around for half a day without seeing a single car. Now, you can see a car every so often. This place turned into a KFC.
I remember it used to be planted with all plum trees. Those plum blossoms. Plum blossoms, those plum trees. I remember, if I’m not mistaken, I’m not good with plants. If I’m not mistaken, I remember they used to be all plum blossoms. Or try to step on the grass less. This doesn’t look like
This flower doesn’t follow the usual pattern. It bloomed first, the others haven’t bloomed yet. Hahaha hahaha This building has also turned into KFC. KFC is really rich. Ah, here, here is also an artificial lake. Just ahead. So, I mean, if you’re not in a hurry,
If you’re not in a hurry, you can just walk, there’s no need to take that car. It’s not about saving money. When you come here, do you still want to take a look? If you just take a few minutes by car and finish everything, then coming to this place is not meaningful. I
I remember it was that style of architecture from the Republic of China period. It seems to be at the entrance. At the entrance, there are a few… How far is it? I don’t remember if I went there. This one… Let me go and see. It’s been so long, I really don’t remember.
It seems like this is it. This one, yes, this one. I’ll check the history book later. This is… this is… this is not built later. This was there before. This was already there before. I remember this. It’s from the Republic of China period. That’s during the Kuomintang period.
And then, actually, near my home, there are several buildings from the Republic of China period. This is… It is. Yes, yes, it’s Tang Shengzhi’s mansion. Let me show you. Oh my goodness. I can’t get up from here. Look here. So now it’s almost 4 o’clock. The sun is setting.
There’s still a bit of distance. But when the clouds cover, you can clearly feel the temperature drop. Yes, yes, yes. Right? Is it? And if you want a guided tour, just scan this code. This code. It has several language options. When you scan this code, it has several languages. It has several languages.
Yes, I remember this building is the real old building. But it must have been renovated. Without renovation, that… that… it wouldn’t have lasted this long. This one, well, it can’t last that long without renovation. It’ll deteriorate faster without renovation. Yes. See it? It used to be… Oh, forget it, forget it, forget it.
But I think this… This mansion, I think it should still be usable. I feel like in Malaysia they do this kind of thing better. I also need, like, these old buildings over there, this kind of they have not been just protected, not being used. They can still be used.
I think this one can be used too. I think this one can be used. Like this mansion. If you maintain it well, actually, you like this kind of… It’s like buying things. You don’t have to leave it there. Then it will just gather dust. Gathering dust makes it deteriorate faster.
Some things, the more you use them, the more durable they are. Oh, isn’t it this? Is it this? I think it’s this. Look over there. Hurry, is there still any? Look at this, this is also built later. Does this thing have a sense of age? The real thing is, without understanding it,
You have a certain level of understanding of this thing. Just a little understanding. You should know. Just like looking at people. Old things are old things. Young things are young things. You don’t need to look to see it at a glance. If you have that feeling, you can tell.
Wow, these shoes today are all muddy. So, I said, why can’t the ecology be on this surface? Look at this kind of weather. Are they ducks or quails? Oh, and I forgot to mention, If you guys want to check online, all those, uh, Orange Isle stuff, about the ticket fees and such,
It’s all nonsense. Don’t believe it. No need to trust. Just make a reservation on their official website. I’ll show you how to make a reservation for the ticket later. I’ll attach a guide on how to reserve the ticket. Later, I’ll check if the Du Fu Pavilion is visible. All right, it’s about half.
About halfway. Then I’ll see if I can see the Du Fu Pavilion. See if I can see it. First, to Du Fu Pavilion, then wait and see. Du Fu Pavilion is also… In the back, they built something. It’s not an ancient building, but it’s a famous scenic spot now in Changsha.
It’s not an ancient building, but it’s now a famous attraction in Changsha. Unlike… Actually, I haven’t been up there. Honestly, in all these years, I haven’t been to the top of Du Fu Pavilion. I’m a local. I’ve never been to the top of Du Fu Pavilion. He charges an entrance fee.
But the ticket price seems reasonable. For Du Fu Pavilion, I think it depends on when you go. When he went, for example, to Orange Isle during the fireworks display, during that time, Orange Isle was impressive. What was amazing was when it was just built, they had a fireworks show every Saturday.
A fireworks show. The best view was from the top of Du Fu Pavilion. You could see the Orange Isle fireworks display from up there. It faces the location where they set off the fireworks. So, Du Fu Pavilion is like a complementary facility to this. And, um, this is the tourist center now.
Before, these houses were empty here. So, now, it’s quite convenient for you guys to come here. Oh, this is the lake, right? Look at me. I don’t even remember it myself. You see? This is the lake. That one facing us. Um, it’s an ancient building, not really ancient,
It’s a simulation of an ancient building. This thing is Du Fu Pavilion. Back then, a few poets came to Changsha. And this here this is where they set off the fireworks, in front. The place where they set off the fireworks is right in front of that. That’s the place.
Where they set off the fireworks. I don’t know if they’ll have it during Chinese New Year. During the Spring Festival. Because now, uh, fireworks are not as frequent as they used to be. It’s not as frequent. It’s not as frequent. It’s less frequent now. It only happens on certain occasions.
Oh, that’s Du Fu Pavilion. And the tall one is Jiulong Warehouse International Center. That’s Huayuan International. Um, that one, like that Tetris piece with the vertical bar. Over there is Wanda. Oh, that one is like that Tetris piece with the vertical bar. That’s Wanda. Um Oh, this one. Do you see it? That’s
Do you see it? This one is Yes. The more expensive cruise ship. It goes further. It can go directly to Oh, there are birds. Excuse me, is there a restroom here? Oh, there’s one downstairs at that staircase. See the one I’m pointing to in front of me?
That one is the closest, thank you. Is this a French restaurant? I don’t remember. If… If I remember correctly, this seems to be the French restaurant. It’s either here or further ahead. Actually, today I’m only taking you through the southern half. There’s still the northern half, and if you go…
There’s a beach, an artificial beach park, which is better to visit in the summer. You can have barbecues and swim there. After that, heading north, there’s a section where you cross a bridge. Before, people used to live there, but it seems it wasn’t fully developed. Even now, it’s still there, undeveloped.
But, you can go there directly. I think sometimes you can drive there directly. Oh, there’s a part where after crossing the bridge, there used to be people living there. It was probably undeveloped back then. It’s still there now, but undeveloped. Until now, it hasn’t been developed. But, it remains undeveloped. You can directly…
I think sometimes you can directly drive there. I’m not sure if you can drive there. I haven’t been there. Because usually when I come here, I take this route. If you take this route, it’ll take around one and a half hours. If you come back here, taking the crowded route,
It will take around one and a half hours. So, it takes about that long. So, next time, I think if you go there, I suggest going in the summer. Visit there in the summer and take a look. Hey, this isn’t it. Where’s the French restaurant? Oh. It’s quite romantic, this place.
If you come here now, with us locals, it’s not bad. I think… It’s okay. Oh, this is a bookstore now, transformed into Le Bookstore (I think it’s “yue”). It’s changed into a bookstore. An independent brand under Xinhua Bookstore. Xinhua Bookstore is also a memory of the times. And it’s near my home.
Also, not far from my home, there’s another Xinhua Bookstore. This one is called Le Bookstore. It seems… It seems they’re closed. Maybe it’s closing time. Excuse me, what time is it now? Oh, 4 o’clock. They close at 4 o’clock. Oh, it’s snowing. Thank you.
These days, you can’t see it because of the snow. Actually, when I went to Malaysia last time, or Singapore, I really wanted to find a local record store. We have very few here. Basically, it’s extinct here. It’s almost extinct here. Here, now there’s basically no one making records. It has become something luxurious.
Not luxury, but it’s definitely expensive. It’s like saying it’s a luxury item. It’s definitely expensive. Especially, I remember here Uh-huh. Check it out on Baidu or something, there’s one near Taiping Street, and on the 7th floor of Guojin Center. During the day, they sell records, and at night,
It turns into a bar or something. I haven’t gone in to ask, because it’s too expensive for me to afford. Then, I’ll choose to shop online. If you’re strolling around downtown, one or two electric wheels are enough. Like this French cuisine, it’s expensive. I know this place.
The consumption at this place is high. Not far. I remember there’s another building from the Republican era. I don’t know where it went. Let’s go inside and take a look. From my memory, there are two buildings. One was from the provincial or municipal government back then. And there’s another one.
That was a house. Oh, this one, Oh, they have jazz inside. Let me move a bit further, wait a moment. Don’t follow me applying for that again. Uh… Ah, copyright is also declared, darn it. Ah, here is all for dining, though. Well, if you don’t mind the cost,
You can come here to eat. I’ll look for that Republic of China architecture. If it’s not here, I’ll have to go outside for sure. Definitely have to go outside. Move a bit away. Don’t capture his voice. Alright, that’s enough for the orange head. How long does it take, roughly?
I’d say about an hour and 20 minutes. About an hour and a half, more or less. When going there, it’s 40 minutes. And then, when you come back, if you take the middle route, it’s about… Uh… It’s also about 40 minutes now. If you have the patience to watch it all,
When you go out, you don’t need to scan the code. Later, when I go back, I’ll check to see, that… If you’re a foreign tourist, How do they make reservations? Please pass, see if they use the Passport, or if there are other things to apply. Or can only join a tour.
And then, on the way back, I’m also planning to take the subway. It’s more convenient. If you have to walk, You have to walk up to this bridge. If you walk up here, You can go to the left, which is to the west of the river.
And this way, you go to the east side. This bridge has a strong wind. If you go this way, you can go to the west of the river. Oh, this way, you go to the east side. The wind on this bridge is too strong.
So, you better take the subway, it’s more convenient and fast. It’s more convenient and fast, you know. The subway, two stops, and you’re at Wuyi Square. Just walk a few steps and you’re home. That’s the driver just now, That guy riding a motorcycle over. He’s a motorcycle driver.
Generally, they have these kinds of… He’s not a regular motorcycle driver, he’s wearing this kind of helmet. Just like a uniform. It’s like… A uniform, like that uniform. Basically, if you encounter this, you can ask him. Uh… It seems like this is this. You can ask him about the cost to Orange Island.
When it’s expensive, I’d rather take a taxi. Right? Wow, this one, this one seems to be this. If it’s around 10 or 15 yuan. Yeah. Wow, it seems like it’s this one. Wow. Yeah, that’s correct. Yes, yes, yes, this one, this one is from the Republic of China era. I remember.
Another one is at that bridge, uh… That direction when you go up that bridge. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Changed, changed. This one, they changed it. Yes, they changed this one. This is from the Republic of China era. Like this. See that? They renovated this. Renovated all of this. Ah, this place is all safe.
Yes, yes, yes, this one I remember. It’s on the side when you go up this bridge. And that one, it seems like it’s also that red-brick one. And it seems like it’s also renovated. Yes. Oh. Wait a moment. Ah, I’m too lazy to adjust that screen flickering issue. Uh…
Uh, it’s open now, you can come in. It used to be closed here, you couldn’t come in, ah. There’s no guide now, right? These are all introductions. Oh, I remember. Ah, I remember. This is my first time here. After it opened, there should be a guide.
I remember there should be a guide during the day. If one day I come over, If there is a guide, Then we’ll shoot another. Then, let’s shoot it later. Let’s shoot it later. I don’t think there’s a guide during the day now. There are guides explaining, you see. Can you see it here?
They all have them. Wow, now they are directly exhibited here. Jianghai Daguan. Shanghai Little Knife Club. This should be like this. I guess in ancient times it should be called a foreign building. Hmm. Opium War. Oh. This should be related to Hunan here. The opening. Just now should be the whole of China.
To read this word, you have to look at the map from left to right. (Should be from right to left) Xiangxue Bao, Xiang Bao. The stone monument of the Supervision and Audit Office. This boundary stone. It should represent entering Hunan. Yuezhou may be on the Yuelu Mountain.
Go back and adjust the light. It’s just right on this. Zhang Zhidong. Hey, I didn’t expect to see this place when I came back. You see, it’s been so many years since I came. It used to be really closed here. Now it’s made into a museum-like place. If you’re interested in this,
You can still come and take a look. City Lingji. This place is quite big. This picture seems to be in our Provincial Museum or Provincial Library. It’s also placed here now. Next time, find a guide to explain. Say I’m a Changsha native, I don’t know so much history.
It’s really embarrassing to say it. But Mingde Zhong, Mingde Zhong School, I still know. Changjun Middle School, I also know. This should be the Hunan Provincial First Normal School. It’s also near my home. That place is in Labor Square. Also, in the youth period, Chairman Mao stayed there. This is historical documents.
But the things inside, I guess I can only check those materials in the library. Can see those documents. Which day I’ll take you to see Tianxin Pavilion. It’s not far from my home. That, Now, only the old city wall is the old one. Then the loft on it is all reconstructed. Then,
Next time, I’ll take you to see it. Go to the second floor and take a look. Why do I say that the ancient buildings in Changsha are all renovated later? Because there was a great fire in the evening. Basically, it burned down the ancient buildings in Changsha.
To prevent the Japanese during the Sino-Japanese War, in order to gain time, we could only do this. Because we really needed to protect Changsha, we could only do this in Hengyang. For Hengyang, there was also a big fire. It was very tragic at that time. Now, only those ancient buildings in Changsha
Are basically imitated and rebuilt. Fortunately, these photos are kept here. So we can still see the ancient buildings in that shape. That’s good. These photos are still kept here. So we can still see the shape. The shape of those ancient buildings. It is reconstructed like that shape. Take a look at this thing.
It’s an old-style typewriter with a striking needle. Finally, we can see this kind of thing here. Wooden handle copper postal stamp. Weights should be this. This should be a weight. Hand-cranked calculator. Master, can I take a look here? The museum will close at 5. Let me check if it’s true. What is this?
Pinch, tiger pliers, screwdriver. This should be on the railway. Inspection tools for checking goods. Usually, are there any guides here? No, no. It’s all self-guided. Oh, I think we should have a guide. No, this one doesn’t have. No, it doesn’t come with one. Yes, I think we should have one.
Now it’s free, you see. There’s no need to care about that much. Having a guide would be good. I mean, he could be a volunteer or something. Yeah, he could be a volunteer or something. I mean, having that. No, no, it doesn’t have that. Well, it seems like it’s time to close here.
Let’s come back next time. Actually, next time I’ll go to the north side. The north side has another large section. This is an old-style telephone. I feel like it’s refurbished. Under the stairs is the exit of the subway station. Exit only, if you need to take the subway.
Please walk forward on the left. Under the stairs is the exit of the subway station. Please walk forward to the intersection ahead. Under the stairs is the exit of the subway station. Exit only, if you need to take the subway. Please walk to your left.

I also don’t know when it opened. I also forgot to ask. Anyway, I remember they preserved two or three. Two or three from the Republic of China period. Those buildings. Alright, we’re going to take the subway now. Taking the subway, I won’t… Basically, today ends here.
