Wuhan

Nicknamed as the ‘Chicago of Asia’ for its role as a major transportation hub as well as communication centre for central China, Wuhan is home to over 10 million people, making it the most populous city in the Hubei Province. But beyond the usual allures of the huge metropolis lies a colourful history and traditions that date back to 223 BC, when Wuhan was formed from the conglomeration of three districts which are Hanyang, Hankou and Wuchang.

Top 5 Must Do's Yellow Crane Tower For hundreds of years, this fabled tower has been the subject of famous verses. Despite the daily crowds, Wuhan’s number one attraction still infuses poetry into sightseeing. Known for offering ‘The First Scenery under Heaven’, the current structure was rebuilt after the original one was destroyed in a fire.

Moshan Hill overlooking the lake is renowned for its beauty regardless of the season. A wondrous sight seen from afar and a romantic stroll for tourists.
