The sections along both sides of the Xiangjiang River on Middle Xiangjiang Road and Xiaoxiang Middle Road are the best places to watch the Orange Island fireworks.
From Du Pujiang to the riverside, sit on the sand on the riverbank and watch the fireworks. It is the closest and the best feeling. Visitors can not only feel the airflow of the fireworks explosion, but also see small fountain-shaped fireworks at low altitude.
On the bank of Xiangjiang Middle Road, you can watch the fireworks directly along the river. However, due to the tall trees on the bank and heavy fog, you may not be able to see them clearly.
Climb to the top of Yuelu Mountain to watch the fireworks. Because it is a bird's-eye view, the artistic conception is the best. Because it is far away from the fireworks, it is recommended to bring telescope equipment to watch.
