Changsha
Changsha is the capital city of Hunan province.
The city owes its prosperity and wealth
largely to its location on the fertile Hunan
plains on the Xiangjiang River, a region
that is becoming China's most important
grain producing regions. Changsha also has
a rich history: the city has been inhabited
for 3000 years, and by the recordable Warring
States Period (Zhan4 Guo2 Shi2 Qi1; 453-221
BC), the city had already grown up to large
size. Most part of the city is between Xiangjiang
River (to the west) and Jing-guang Railway/Changsha
Railway Station (to the far east of the
city). The major street, Wuyi (May 1st)
Road leads away from the station to the
river and sparate the city into north and
south.
