Huangxing Road Pedestrian Street & Wuyi Square
黄兴路步行街·五一广场
Changsha's liveliest commercial pedestrian street, with the Huang Xing statue, Chayan Yuese, and all kinds of snack shops clustered together.
Huangxing Road Pedestrian Street runs from Nanmenkou in the south to Wuyi Square in the north. It is Changsha's central shopping district, and the Huang Xing statue stands at its entrance. Shopping malls, old shops, and trendy snack stalls line both sides, with Chayan Yuese, stinky tofu, sugar-oil rice cakes, and Kouwei shrimp everywhere. To the west it connects with Pozi Street and Taiping Street, and to the south, the late-night food streets around Nanmenkou and Hualongchi. It is an open-air district, and crowds at night are very large, so keep an eye on your belongings. Metro Lines 1 and 2, Wuyi Square Station.
