“The reeds and rushes are deeply green, and the white dew is turned into hoarfrost. The man of whom I think is somewhere about the water.” The poem "The Reeds and Rushes" has made reeds a symbol of longing for thousands of years. Although winter has arrived, the weather in Changsha is still pleasant, with warm sunshine, dry air, and blue skies. This weather is perfect for going out to enjoy the flowers. Come and find the reeds and poetry hidden in Changsha! ✅ Jiangtan Park 300 meters east of Xiaoxiang Middle Road, Yuelu District, Changsha, Hunan Province In late November every year, Xiangjiang Jiangtan Park welcomes the season of reed flowers. The park is located on the west bank of the Xiangjiang River. From the bridge, you can see clusters of reeds growing by the water, shimmering and swaying gently, like a clear dream. The reeds here are mainly Phragmites australis, which have slender and soft flower spikes, unlike the fluffy inflorescences of common reeds. The Phragmites australis and Miscanthus are intertwined, forming a rounded outline. Although Miscanthus is not a reed, it is no less beautiful in appearance. When the breeze blows, it adds a touch of resilience and softness to the reeds. Tips: Tickets: Free, open all day ⏰ Recommended shooting time: 10:00–11:30, 15:00–16:30 📸 Shooting suggestions: Use props or interact with the reeds to make the picture more story-like. Outfit suggestions: Choose clothes in deep red, orange, brown, or other colors that coordinate with autumn. You can also add some light jackets or scarves to enhance the overall layering. ✅ Garden Ecological Park Luohanzhuang Village, Laodaohe Town, Kaifu District In the Garden Ecological Park, the reeds sway gently in the wind, the plants are arranged in an orderly manner, and the flowers and plants are flourishing, exuding a strong poetic atmosphere. When the morning light shines into the park, the mist gradually dissipates, and the reeds begin to show their brilliance. The straight and swaying reed spikes are like a pen full of poetic feelings, depicting the garden scenery in early winter with extra gentleness. Wearing Hanfu, holding an oil-paper umbrella, walking slowly through the reeds taller than people, and standing by the lake to look into the distance, you will feel a poetic mood. Tips: Tickets (reference price): CNY 15, opening hours: 09:30–17:30 ⏰ Recommended shooting time: 10:00–11:30, 15:00–16:30 📸 Shooting suggestions: Try different angles, squat, shoot from a low angle or sideways, and find an angle that can show the harmony between the reeds and people. You can also let the reeds occupy half of the picture and the people in the other half to create a unique picture. Outfit suggestions: Choose some elegant Hanfu or use props to embellish, which will give a sense of wholeness. ✅ Songya Lake Park No. 118, East Third Road, Changsha County, Changsha City Just after the beginning of winter, Songya Lake National Wetland Park welcomes the unique winter scenery. The large reeds are majestic in the breeze, exuding the tranquility and peace of winter. The reeds are tall and strong, graceful and charming; the flower spikes of Phragmites australis are loose and romantic; the branches of Arundo donax are thick, and the flower spikes are upright. All kinds of reeds are intertwined into a beautiful picture. Looking at Songya Lake from a distance, the shimmering buildings in the distance are integrated with the colorful rural scenery, like a painting. Tips: Tickets: Free, open all day ⏰ Recommended shooting time: 10:00–11:30, 15:00–16:30 📸 Shooting suggestions: Choose a large scene of reeds and interact naturally with the reeds, such as gently stroking the reeds or letting them sway in the wind to make the photos more vivid. Outfit suggestions: You can try wearing bright Hanfu or woolen coats, paired with hats or earrings in the Melard style.

Step into the park and leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind. The lush trees, colorful flowers, and green grass create a natural atmosphere that is like a natural oxygen bar, healing your tired body and mind. Follow the winding path and you will see a Chinese garden with pavilions, rockeries, and ponds. Stop at a pavilion and look down at the lake, where the water glistens, the lotus leaves sway, and a few water birds play, like a lively ink painting. The park also has flower exhibitions with different themes, with colorful flowers blooming all year round. In spring, enjoy the cherry blossoms, with pink and white petals falling like snow; in autumn, admire the chrysanthemums, with colorful flowers competing for beauty.
