The Night Life in Changsha
The people of Changsha are renowned for their performing arts. They have created various traditional folk performances including local operas, storytelling, drum opera, acrobatics and other dramatic presentations. Traditional folk art was highly fashionable during a period of the city's history and many of today's theatres and opera halls in Changsha date from that time. Today, most of these places present entertaining plays and performances that feature a blend of the traditional elements with modern trends.
The peak time for night life in the city is between one and two o'clock am. This is when you will find the streets jammed with cars, enthusiastic crowds and shrewd peddlers. Around 12 am, it is very hard to find an available taxi near the main thoroughfares of Shaoshan Lu, Furong Lu and Bayi Lu as they are all very busy.
