About

Hunan is a province in south-central China, famous for its rich culture, dramatic landscapes, and spicy cuisine.

Located south of Dongting Lake and traversed by the Xiang River, Hunan’s name literally means “south of the lake.” Its capital, Changsha, is a major cultural and economic center, while the province as a whole covers about 210,000 square kilometers and is home to more than 66 million people. Hunan is renowned for its subtropical monsoon climate, lush mountains such as Mount Heng, and natural wonders like Zhangjiajie National Forest Park and Tianmen Mountain, which attract millions of tourists each year. Historically, Hunan has been a cradle of Chinese civilization, with sites like the Mawangdui Han Tombs and Yueyang Tower, and it is also the birthplace of Mao Zedong, giving it a strong role in modern Chinese history. The province’s economy is diverse, ranging from agriculture—especially rice and tea—to modern industries, while its fiery Hunan cuisine is celebrated across China for bold flavors and liberal use of chili peppers
