Situated at Hunan's southern gate, Chenzhou serves as the province's vital conduit to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Blending striking natural topography with profound cultural heritage, the city presents itself to the world as both a "City in the Forest" and an auspicious "City of Blessings." Rich in revolutionary legacy, breathtaking in natural grandeur, vibrant in entertainment, and fulfilling in quality of life, Chenzhou has evolved into a premier destination that turns stopovers into overnight stays and sightseers into shoppers.
Nature has been generous to Chenzhou. The clear, tranquil waters of Dongjiang Lake, the picturesque mists over the Xiaodongjiang River, the vivid colors of Gaoyiling's Danxia rock formations, and the sweeping grasslands of Yangtian Lake create a landscape of remarkable variety.
Dongjiang Lake's clear, refreshing waters nourish southern Hunan and serve as an important strategic water source for the Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan metropolitan region, bringing the benefits of Zixing's natural abundance to tens of millions of people.
"Zixing: A Waterside City in the East, a Landscape of Poetic Beauty." Here, visitors can glide across Dongjiang Lake, where water and sky merge into one; climb Huilong Mountain to watch the sunrise over a sea of clouds; or enjoy the freedom of the open road on an exhilarating drive along the Bailang lakeside route.
History runs deep across this landscape. Here, the legendary Emperor Shennong discovered tea, renowned literary masters Han Yu and Zhou Dunyi left enduring inscriptions, and revolutionary stories such as "Half a Quilt" were etched into Chinese history.
Chenzhou is also celebrated as the cradle of the Chinese Women's National Volleyball Team whose historic five consecutive championships embodied an indomitable sporting spirit that still inspires the city today.
Known for its non-ferrous metals industry and emerging as a hub for entrepreneurship, Chenzhou is embracing the future with energy and innovation.
Under the banner of "Meet in Chenzhou a picturesque city," the city welcomes visitors from around the world to fall in love with its landscapes at first sight, glimpse a thousand years of cultural heritage and discover its indomitable spirit - all while creating memories to cherish for a lifetime.
