黄鹤楼

The Yellow Crane Tower is the most famous literary landmark in Wuhan. It has been destroyed and rebuilt many times during the changes in the city and the river bank. The current building was built on the new site of Snake Mountain in the 20th century, using modern architecture to interpret the older famous buildings and poetic traditions. Its value lies in connecting literary memory, the reconstruction process and the panoramic view of the Yangtze River, the bridge and the three towns.

武汉长江大桥

The Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge was opened to traffic in 1957. The upper deck is for traffic and the lower deck is for railways. It is the first fixed channel for the Yangtze River in Wuhan. It physically connects the three towns and reshapes the north-south transportation across the country. Observing from the surrounding mountains, ferries and river banks, one can often better understand the engineering and urban scale than walking long distances along the traffic flow.
