Leaving from a hotel in the city area of Changsha, the capital of Hunan Province, one can explore this renowned ancient city with a rich history spanning 3,500 years. Despite the passage of time since Changsha’s establishment, the discovery of a woman’s corpse, preserved for over 2,000 years, alongside more than 3,000 valuable cultural relics from the Han tombs at Mawangdui, has amazed the world. These findings highlight the advanced civilization created by the ancient people of Hunan. The Yuelu Academy, nestled among lush pines and cypresses, exudes a serene and timeless charm. This academy has been a place where numerous cultural luminaries, who established new schools in Chinese history, once lectured. Visitors to the Yuelu Academy will experience a profound cultural atmosphere in every hall, pavilion, tablet, and inscription.
