News 2019/12/03 View:2261

The leaves of a ginkgo tree, approximately 170 years old, near the Hongjundu Scenic Spot in Hunan Martyrs Park are now turning yellow and attracting many tourists. Many trees in Changsha are now tinted with different hues due to a sharp temperature drop and rainy days. Changsha has entered its best period to view fall foliage which presents the charm of the city and the results of green development.

Changsha government has recently attached great importance to urban landscaping while increasing its green belts. Plants that bloom year-round for a constant display of colors are cultivated across the city to provide attractive scenery.
