During the cherry blossom season, visitors from all over the country will spread to the school's Cherry Blossom street.

The Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge is the first bridge built on the Yangtze River in China. It was built on the Snake Mountain in Wuchang and the Snake Mountain in Hanyang. Because this was a project supported by the Soviet Union, it has a strong Russian style and is sturdy and magnificent. If you are interested, you can walk across the river from the approach span near the Yellow Crane Tower or the south gate of Guishan Park. The whole journey takes about an hour. Alternatively, you can take an elevator up directly from the head of the bridge and then walk across the bridge. Observing the different scenery of Wuhan's three towns on the bridge deck is a completely different experience.Wuhan · 5.1 km from downtown

Our tour guide, Wang Zulin, and driver, Liu Nian, accompanied us for the entire day. The energetic Mr. Liu was an excellent driver. He drove with us all day, and although we were tired, he wasn't. He remained cheerful and considerate, making the entire journey comfortable and safe. The gentle and refined tour guide, Wang, waited for us downstairs at our hotel half an hour early, so we could depart at any time. We enjoyed his interesting explanations and learned about the local history and culture. Mr. Wang was very gentlemanly and accommodating to our preferences. We had a wonderful and relaxing day. Having booked this customized tour only the day before, we had no regrets whatsoever. Next time we come to Wuhan, we will definitely hire tour guide Wang and driver Liu again. Thank you both for making our trip so wonderful!

The Hubei Provincial Museum truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier museum in China. Free reservations are available, so be sure to book your tickets in advance! The museum's crown jewels, the Marquis Yi of Zeng's chime bells, are magnificent. The Sword of Goujian, King of Yue, still gleams fiercely after more than two thousand years. Other stunning pieces include the Marquis Yi of Zeng's zun and pan, the crane with deer antlers, and the Yuan Dynasty blue-and-white plum vase with the Four Loves motif. Listening to the explanations, you feel transported back to the Chu Kingdom, experiencing the ritual and musical civilization of the pre-Qin period. The exhibition halls are clearly laid out, and the exhibition areas are quite large; a complete visit will take about 3 hours. The cultural and creative products area offers a rich variety, with the chime bell-themed items being particularly unique.

The hotel front desk service was excellent; they upgraded my room upon check-in. The room was spacious and comfortable. The lobby has an open-plan business area (S7), and a buffet breakfast is available on the second floor, offering both Chinese and Western options. The self-service format was very convenient. Room service was also excellent, with fast delivery. The facilities were complete, and there was a self-service laundry room on the sixth floor. Free parking was also available, and extending stays was quick and easy. I must give it five stars; it's fantastic!

The south entrance of Hankou River Beach is very close to Jianghan Road Pedestrian Street. It's a free attraction with excellent greenery, walkways, plenty of benches and trees, and a pleasant environment. You can see ships coming and going on the Yangtze River, and across the river, the skyscrapers of Wuchang stand tall. You can also see the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge and the Second Yangtze River Bridge, which integrate urban living, green spaces, and exercise facilities. Enjoying the river breeze is very pleasant.

This was a special Teachers' Day perk, and it was the first time for locals to board a boat and enjoy the night view. The boat runs only once an hour, so the wait was a bit long. Bringing children incurs an additional 60 yuan. The tour includes views of several iconic landmarks: the Yellow Crane Tower, Qingchuan Bridge, Wuhan Science and Technology Museum, Guishan TV Tower, and the Yangtze River Bridge. Unfortunately, we didn't cross the Yangtze River Bridge. I hope there will be more similar perks, especially preferential policies for local residents.
