🌟Changsha South Railway Station and Shenzhen Shahe Golf: A Duet of Modern Cities Starting from Changsha South High-speed Railway Station, a speed of 350 kilometers per hour takes you through the city's story. This largest high-speed railway station in Central China is like an arrow poised to be shot, launching Huxiang culture across the country. The design inspiration for Changsha South Railway Station comes from Yuelu Academy and the mountains of Zhangjiajie. The streamlined shape of the station roof resembles an unfurled bamboo scroll. Every time you pass through the ticket gate, you can see the huge electronic screen inside the station displaying "Qinyuanchun·Changsha". That is the most magnificent city advertisement of the 20th century—Mao Zedong penned an eternal footnote for this city with "mountains crimson, forests dyed in layers." Meanwhile, at Shenzhen Shahe Golf Club, the newly renovated space reflects another kind of modern poetic charm. When I visited recently as a space photographer, I was surprised to find that the designers cleverly incorporated "bamboo scroll patterns" elements: the metal screens in the clubhouse are laser-engraved with bamboo scroll textures, and the walls of the private rooms recreate the fragrant herb patterns from "Chu Ci" using three-dimensional collages. The most unforgettable moment was photographing the panoramic view of the golf course at sunset. The white walls and grey tiles of the Hunan-style courtyard were reflected in the water feature, making it feel as if I had traveled back to the backyard of Yuelu Academy. The Podocarpus trees planted around the fairways are said to have been specially transplanted from a nursery in Changsha, adding a touch of Huxiang charm to the 18-hole green. From a thousand-year-old academy to modern golf, these spaces all interpret the same theme—the eternal pursuit of an ideal life by the Chinese people.
