It lies in the eastern Jianghan Plain on the middle reaches of the Yangtze River at the intersection of the Yangtze and Han rivers. Arising out of the conglomeration of three cities, Wuchang, Hankou, and Hanyang, Wuhan is known as 'China's Thoroughfare' (zh); it is a major transportation hub, with dozens of railways, roads and expressways passing through the city and connecting to other major cities.

I am a native of Wuhan, and I often take some foreign guests to visit Wuhan. For me, Hubei Provincial Museum is: If you want to know the history of Wuhan, we will recommend you to Hubei Provincial Museum. The treasure of the treasures in the Museum are the bamboo slips used in the Qin Dynasty, the Sword of Goujian, the Chime bells from the Tomb of Marquis Yi of the Zeng State, and the Blue and White plum vase of the four loves in Yuan Dynasty. It is worth mentioning that, the chime of Marquis Yi is the most complete one in China. You can enjoy the rare chime show if you are lucky enough.

So many exhibits including a large area devoted to dinosaurs and China's pre-historic period. Probably need two days to see everything comfortably.

I am a native of Wuhan, and I often take some foreign guests to visit Wuhan. For me, East Lake is: If you like the natural scenery, East Lake is a good choice. Walking on the lakeside, weeping willow, lotus pond, stone bridge, landscape of lakes and mountains, too beautiful to be absorbed all at once. Occasionally you can see one or two wild ducks playing on the lake. When you are tired, you can take a rest on the stone bench by the side of the lake and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the sunset. In this situation, time will be very slow, and you will enjoy the nourishment of nature.

Never seen a chinese temple like this. Gothic style like a cathedral yet, all the statues are chinese. The place is not a tourist hot site, so it’s relatively quiet when I went. i wrote more on my personal blog magictraveljournal.com

Beautiful campus. It is so big. Right by a huge lake, which is surrounded by gorgeous colorful lights at night. In any other city, the lights alone would be an attraction! We heard that in the spring, the streets are lined with cherry blossoms, and it is a huge local attraction. In the summer, people will swim in the lake.

This landmark, although not the original, has been built in the traditional pagoda style architecture. It is surrounded by a large park, which in itself is very pleasant, especially in the summer when it is hot. There are ponds and even cooling mist sprays in the shady areas. Once inside the tower, you walk up a flight of stairs to each level, and each level has beautiful decorative walls and ceilings. There are places you can buy souvenirs, I think it is on the third level. Once you reach the top, it is an open style balcony which gives panoramic views of the city of Wuhan. I was there in early September 2019. I found it very enjoyable. Many Chinese people, couples and families visit. A great introduction to Chinese culture.
