Hunan Province, China - Changsha, Changde & Jishou

[Tony]

Changsha & Changde are huge cities with populations of 7 and 5 million respectively. Yet for most of the world, they are unknown.

Here are some photos of the two cities from a recent trip in May. It's very unfortunate that our oppressive bus tour was so poorly setup, we wasted more time running from one end of the city to the other that there wasn't a lot of time to explore of these cities on foot.

Changsha

A city of 7 million people. Some recent posts have shown up on SSP about this city. This is the best I could do with the time allotted. You can't get this stuff on Google Streetview!

Changde

Another city, this one with a population of 5 million! I don't think it's ever been posted on SSP or at street level on SSC.
