Wuhan, Prefecture-level metropolis in central China

The capital of Hubei Province stretches across the intersection of the Yangtze and Han rivers, forming three main districts: Wuchang, Hankou, and Hanyang.

The foundations for modern Wuhan emerged during the Han dynasty when settlements developed along the riverbanks, later becoming major commercial ports by the Qing period.

The Han Opera performances at local theaters maintain ancient musical traditions through intricate costumes, complex melodies, and traditional storytelling techniques.

The Wuhan Metro system connects thirteen urban districts through eight subway lines, providing transportation for over 11 million inhabitants across the metropolitan area.

The Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, completed in 1957, stands as the first double-deck road-rail bridge across the Yangtze River in China.
