The Yuelu Academy Park: Changsha's most popular park is on the campus of Hunan University. Yuelu Academy was one of the first four universities, and it was built in 976. The scenery on the hill is beautiful, and it is good exercise. A highlight of the park is a museum about education that teaches people about the historic academy, Hunan University, and China's modern educational system and goals.
