汉口历史风貌区与江汉关

The Hankou river bank developed into an important commercial port after the opening of the port in the 19th century. Old banks, foreign banks, churches and Jianghan Pass are scattered behind the modern river beach, which not only records the foreign concession space, but also reflects the Chinese commercial network. Walking from the neighborhoods to the river bank, you can understand how trade, flood control and transportation came together to shape modern Wuhan.

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.
