Wuhan is one of the biggest city in China with a population of around 10 millions and is actually the combination of three smaller cities, Hankou, Hanyang and Wuchang, each separated from the other by a river. Hankou is located at the northern party and is the business center. Wuchang is the education center separated by the Yangtze river (ChangJiang). Hanyang is the industrial center. The 3 cities were combined in 1927 to become Wuhan. The city is famous for its hot summer weather and flood.

There are 4 train stations in Wuhan. One each in Hankou, Hanyang, Wuchang and a brand new train station at the Northeastern part of Wuchang..Arrived at WuChang station around 9.40am in the morning.

Took bus 511 to Hostel Pathfinder which is located at the Wuchang district. Got a dorm room for 35 Yuan~USD$5.

There is a street in Wuhan called HuBuXiang which is famous for street food.

Wuhan is famous for ReGanMian (2.5 Yuan~USD$0.4).

Yellow Crane Tower (HuangHeLou) was built around 2000 years ago. Just took a picture from the outside.

The first Yangtze river bridge was built 1957, during the first 5 Year Plan of China and is 1.6km long. There is also a railway track within the bridge.

The river bank is always flooded.

Walked across the bridge

Took bus 401 to Hubei Provincial Museum.

The museum is divided into 10 different exhibits. There is an exhibit about ChuGuo which is a country around Hubei province more than 2000 years ago during the Autumn Spring period in China before QinShiHuang unites China.
Sword used in ChuGuo

There is also an exhibit about the tomb of Marquis Yi which was buried 2400 years ago.

Big bells used as musical instruments discovered in the tomb.

Even during more than 2000 years ago, Chinese are paying a lot of attention to offering sacrifices to God. I am not sure what kind of God do they believe in then but it’s interesting and has some similarities to the Old Testament.

Replica of the skull of Peking man (500,000 years ago), Nanjing man (350,000 years ago) and Java man (more than 500,000 years ago).
