The closest "Little Hulunbuir" to Guangdong! Where comic books meet reality.

At 1314 meters above sea level on a mountain grassland, wait for the wind, wait for the clouds to disperse, and wait for a head-on embrace with freedom. Where? Beihu District, Chenzhou, Hunan. After arriving at Chenzhou West Station by high-speed rail, it's a 1.5-hour drive (mountain roads are common, experienced drivers recommended). ✨ TOP 5 Must-Try Experiences 1️⃣ Galloping on Horseback: Capture stunning grassland photos from horseback. 2️⃣ Hobbit Houses: Pretend you're in New Zealand, surrounded by fairytale charm. 3️⃣ Windmill Mountain Sunset: After 6pm, the entire grassland is bathed in golden light. 4️⃣ Grassland Camping: See the Milky Way with the naked eye at night. 5️⃣ Feeding Sika Deer: Just like Nara in Japan, the deer will chase after food. 📸 Photo Guide ✔️ Wear a white/red dress and capture action shots while running. ✔️ Use props like straw hats and kites for more dynamic photos. ✔️ Shoot from a low angle, framing the windmills and blue sky. ⚠️ Things to Avoid ▸ Food and drinks are expensive inside the scenic area, so bring your own snacks and water. ▸ The UV rays are super strong! Be sure to apply sunscreen and wear sunglasses. ▸ Fog is common during the rainy season (May-June), so check the weather forecast before traveling. 🚗 Recommended Routes One-day trip: Yangtian Lake + Gaoyiling (40-minute drive) Two-day trip: Day 1 Yangtian Lake → Day 2 Xiaodongjiang + Bailang (📌Tips: The best season is from April to October, when the grass is greenest!)
