Introduction
Wuhan, capital and major industrial and commercial city in Central China’s Hubei province, is a charming city that combines the beauty of scenic rivers, enchanting lakes and picturesque attractions. It is located at the confluence of the Han and Yangtze rivers and consists of a conurbation of three adjacent former cities—Hankou (Hankow), Hanyang, and Wuchang.
