Hotels in Hunan, China
Hunan is a landlocked province in central China, famous for its fiery cuisine and the towering sandstone pillars of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, which inspired the floating mountains in Avatar. The climate is subtropical, with hot, humid summers averaging 82°F (28°C) perfect for hiking the park's glass skywalks, and mild winters around 41°F (5°C) ideal for exploring Fenghuang's Ming-era stilt houses and trying the local spicy hotpot. In spring, you can boat through the misty Li River near Guangxi's border, while autumn brings cool, clear days for visiting Mao Zedong's hometown in Shaoshan.
