Yichang, Prefecture-level city in Hubei, China.

Yichang extends along the Yangtze River bank in western Hubei, featuring hills and the Xiba island that creates a natural harbor.

The city gained international prominence in 1876 when it became a foreign trading port following the signing of the Chefoo Convention between China and Britain.

The region maintains strong connections to the Three Kingdoms period through archaeological sites and traditional storytelling passed down through generations.

Yichang Sanxia Airport connects to major Chinese cities while the local transportation network includes railways, highways, and river navigation systems.

The Three Gorges Dam and Gezhouba Dam, located in Yiling District, generate substantial hydroelectric power, making Yichang a center of energy production.
