* Over the past few decades, thousands of families worldwide have grown through the adoption of children from China—especially from Hunan Province, once one of the most active regions in international adoption.

* If your child was born in Hunan and adopted from cities such as Changsha, Zhuzhou, Xiangtan, Hengyang, Changde, or Yongzhou, they may eventually feel a natural curiosity about their early life and origins.

* As adoptees mature, many begin asking important questions:

- Where was I born?

- What is my birth city like today?

- What was the orphanage I came from?

* These deeply personal questions present a meaningful opportunity to support your child in exploring their identity and understanding their roots.

* Our team specializes in personalized, stress-free root-seeking tours in Hunan, designed specifically for international adoptive families who want to help their children reconnect with their Chinese heritage.

Orange Island Park

Orange Island Park is a picturesque, long and narrow island located in the Xiangjiang River, right at the heart of Changsha, Hunan Province. Known for its natural beauty and historical significance, the island is famous for being one of the Eight Grand Sights of Hunan—specifically renowned for the "Snow by River at Dusk," a poetic scene appreciated by ancient Chinese scholars. In addition to its stunning landscapes, Orange Island is historically famous for producing high-quality oranges, a tradition that dates back centuries. Today, it stands as a must-see tourist destination in Changsha, offering a unique blend of history, culture, and natural charm.

We adopted our daughter from Hunan Province 20 years ago, and this year we took a root-seeking trip to her birth city. This tour was incredibly meaningful for our family. The team handled all the government registration and paperwork needed to visit the orphanage, and they scheduled everything well in advance, which made the process smooth and stress-free. With private transportation, a friendly local interpreter, and a customized itinerary, we felt fully supported throughout the trip. Visiting the orphanage and exploring her birthplace connected us deeply to her roots. We also enjoyed the beautiful culture and landscapes of Hunan, making this an enriching experience for all of us. If you’re an adoptive family planning to visit your child’s birthplace in China, we highly recommend this Hunan orphanage visit and root-seeking tour. Their professional and caring approach allowed us to focus on what mattered most—our family’s journey and memories.

The visit with our daughter was great! The staff was very welcoming, they gave us a tour, presented our daughter with a gift, showed us her file, and served us lunch. It was a rewarding experience for our daughter and our family.

I am from Belgium, but I was adopted inYueyang, Hunan when I was only 3-month old. I flew to Changsha, hoping to visit the adopted place and orphanage. Judy did a great job for planning my trip. She made an appointment with the orphanage for my visiting, she arranged a private driver and tour guide to take me to Yueyang from Changsha. Stacey is my tour guide, she was very professional, trying her best to connect me with as many people in the orphanage as possible. I had some sightseeing there as well, I loved the magnificent Yueyang tower and the delicious Hunan food. If you ever need to plan your trip in Changsha, this is the recommended one.
