Amazing Wuhan Yangtze River ♥️🇨🇳
#cherryblossom2024 🌸
🌅 Compared to the bustling and fireworks under the Yingwuzhou Yangtze River Bridge, the sunset and breeze of Wuhan and Wuchang Yangtze River Beach feel more peaceful. 😌🌅
💨 The gentle breeze brushing over the sunset makes it a great place for hair to stay. Come to Wuchang to watch the sunset! 🌅
‼️ Wuhan Yangtze River Beach No. 4 Gate is located near Jiyuqiao Subway Station Exit B. Just go straight for about 500 meters. ‼️

Cherries at Hanyang Holiday Inn 🌸🌊 🏨
#cherryblossom2024
Nestled along the riverbanks of Hanyang, the Holiday Inn Qingchuan boasts a unique charm, with cherry blossoms adorning its surroundings. Due to the area's proximity to the river, the cherry blossoms here bloom later than in other places, making it a delightful spot for late bloomers. 🌸🌊
Strolling along the river, you'll be greeted by a stunning sight: a canopy of Yoshino cherry blossoms in full bloom, their delicate pink petals creating a mesmerizing spectacle against the backdrop of the tranquil waters. From the viewing platform, you can marvel at the majestic Yangtze River Bridge and catch a glimpse of the iconic Yellow Crane Tower standing proudly on the opposite bank. 🌸🏞️
While most people prefer sunny days for cherry blossom viewing, there's a special allure to experiencing them in the rain. On a rainy evening, the juxtaposition of the soft pink blossoms against the deep blue sky, illuminated by the glow of streetlights, creates an ethereal atmosphere that is simply enchanting. 🌧️💫
So why not take a leisurely walk along the riverside promenade and immerse yourself in the beauty of these cherry blossoms today?
📍 88 Xima Chang Street, Hanyang District
🚃 🚃 🚊 Take bus 532, 559, 531, 535, 711, or 803 and get off at Qingchuan Avenue Qingchuange Station. Walk for just 3 minutes to reach the Holiday Inn Qingchuan.
📢reminder: While some areas of the hotel, particularly near the Qingchuan Pavilion River Embankment, offer free cherry blossom viewing throughout the day, other sections are open for free entry only before 10 am. After 10 am, access is limited to hotel dining and in-house guests. 🕙🍽️

The post-snow blue hour under the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge is so atmospheric
The snow-covered Nan'an Mouth River Beach
White sandy beach, Yangtze River Bridge icon, cruise ships
When it comes to the blue hour in the evening, the atmosphere is really great
It's also deserted after the snow, and it's very quiet here watching the snow scene
📍Nan'an Mouth River Beach
⌚️Shooting time: around six in the evening, when it's about to get dark. The color temperature can be set a bit lower.
There is no direct subway access for a getaway, it is recommended to take a taxi from a nearby subway station, as the roads are slippery in the snow, be careful to prevent slipping.

After enjoying the cherry blossoms at Wuhan University, where should you go next?
Many tourists who come to Wuhan to play don't know where to go after enjoying the cherry blossoms. Museums and art galleries are already closed for the day, but they don't want to go back to the hotel directly, so I recommend a place to go after enjoying the cherry blossoms.
Following the previous video, after enjoying the cherry blossoms, go to Lingbo Gate to watch the sunset. I won't go into details here. After leaving Lingbo Gate, take a taxi to the Yangtze River Bridge beach. The beach is very spacious, so you don't have to worry about not finding a spot. If you're in time, you can even enjoy a second sunset on the Yangtze River Bridge, which is truly elegant!! And witness the cyber light show of the many-year-old TV tower.
Stay at the Yangtze River Bridge until seven-thirty, then slowly walk eastward. Along this road, there are two streets full of snacks, where you can stroll and eat. By around seven-fifty, you'll almost reach the Yellow Crane Tower. At the Yellow Crane Tower, find a good spot (I've posted about it in my first video) and set up in advance, waiting for the cyber lights of the Yellow Crane Tower to turn on at eight o'clock.
From the Yellow Crane Tower, continue walking east to Liangdao Street, where you can find all kinds of Wuhan's special snacks. Amidst the exhaustion of wandering in Wuhan, savor the city's delicious food.

Impressions of Wuhan | Everyone comes to the Yangtze River Bridge to take photos of the Yellow Crane Tower, okay!
I went to Wuhan to visit relatives a while ago
and took a citywalk by the way
I was healed by the night view of Wuhan!
We walked on the Yangtze River Bridge for a long time
The original intention was to find the popular photo spot for pictures 1 to 3
Unexpectedly, it was particularly easy to find
📍There is a wire mesh at the middle section
Everyone was taking photos there
Especially when the train comes
Suddenly, there is a feeling of 'the old friends have left from the Yellow Crane Tower'
📍The downhill section near the Yellow Crane Tower
Pictures 4 to 6 were taken on that section of the road
I strongly suggest everyone to just walk around and take a look
You will find that the Yellow Crane Tower appears for a while
and then hides behind the trees again
📍The stairs on the left side facing the Yellow Crane Tower
The last picture was taken at this spot
I think this place is very special
Especially many people setting up stalls selling fridge magnets
Watching them shouting and tourists going to buy
All made me feel the liveliness of life

Wuhan | The sunset over the Yangtze River today is exceptionally beautiful
Day 1 in Wuhan
I set out from the good temple in the morning, strolling along the river beach all the way to Turtle Hill Park.
The day's journey ended at the Yangtze River Bridge.
Although the air quality was not good today,
it could not hide the beauty of the sunset's afterglow.
I had planned to return to the hotel early to rest my feet, which had walked 15,000 steps,
but I couldn't resist my partner's insistence on taking me to the Yangtze River Bridge to wait for the sunset.
It turned out to be quite rewarding.
▽▼Useful information interlude▽▼
Great spots for watching the sunset at the Yangtze River Bridge:
❶ Turtle Hill TV Tower
❷ Yangtze River Bridge
❸ River Beach Park
❹ Dayu Park
❺... It's my first time here, so I'm not very familiar, thanks for any additions.
▲△That's the serious stuff, you can skip the rest▲△
He said that when he was unhappy in the past, he would always come here to watch the sunset alone.
This time, he brought me back to watch it together.
I suddenly remembered that when we first got together,
I also said I would take him to see the sunset in Florence.
I didn't expect that before I could fulfill my promise, he had already silently carried it out.
Everyone has their own solitary exile in their heart,
yet always hopes to have someone accompany them there.
Perhaps no one really likes to be alone;
the sunset cannot illuminate every corner,
and it is still necessary for a loved one to light a candle for you.
Today's sunset is as beautiful as love itself.

First encounter with Wuhan
Wuhan is a city that dances with water. At dusk, I boarded the cross-river ferry, and the moment the boat started, a long whistle sounded, filling the air with a sense of ceremony. After disembarking, not far away is the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. The great river flows eastward, and the bridge spans north and south with a majestic presence. In the distance, amidst the dimming twilight, the Yellow Crane Tower stands quietly alone, accompanied by the melody of old songs echoing from afar, evoking a sense of nostalgia. The Yangtze River and Wuhan under the setting sun are enchanting.

Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge | The First Bridge over the Yangtze River in Thousands of Miles
Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge (Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge), is a cross-river passage in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China, connecting Hanyang District and Wuchang District. Located above the Yangtze River waterway, it is the first bridge over the Yangtze River built after the founding of the People's Republic of China that serves both railway and road traffic. It is also one of the important historical landmark buildings in Wuhan, known as 'The First Bridge over the Yangtze River in Thousands of Miles'.
The Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge started construction on September 1, 1955; the main bridge was completed on July 1, 1957; and it opened to traffic on October 15, 1957.
In 1956, Mao Zedong came to Wuhan and crossed the Yangtze River for the first time. Facing the emerging outline of the first bridge over the Yangtze River - the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, he improvised the poem 'Shuidiao Getou·Swimming', in which 'A bridge flies north and south, turning a moat into a thoroughfare' expresses his sincere admiration for the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge.
🌟Travel Tips:
1️⃣Walk across the Yangtze River Bridge. The bridge is 1670 meters long, and it takes about 50 minutes to walk the entire length, symbolizing longevity (there is also a legend that those who walk across the Yangtze River Bridge will inevitably break up). Couples and friends can go for a walk, and as for the legend, it's up to individual interpretation! It is recommended to go in the morning or afternoon when there is the atmosphere of sunrise or sunset, which will give you a deeper appreciation of the beauty of this river city.
2️⃣Take the bridgehead fort elevator for 2 yuan, a total of 7 floors. After coming out of Hubu Alley, you can take the elevator from the ground floor lobby directly to the bridge deck to get a closer touch with this great bridge.
3️⃣Viewing the night scene of the Yangtze River Bridge is definitely a beautiful sight in Wuhan that should not be missed. The light show on both banks and the brilliant lights of the Yangtze River Bridge are the innate romance of the people of Wuhan.
🎫Ticket: Free
🌟Transportation:
📍Location: Zhonghua Road Wharf
🚇Subway: Line 5 Simenkou Yellow Crane Tower Station, then walk to Zhonghua Road Wharf

One-day tour in Wuhan, the charm of Wuhan during the Spring Festival
Gude Temple - Hankou Riverside - Lihuangpi Road - Hubu Alley - Yellow Crane Tower
Gude Temple: A temple that blends European and Asian architectural styles, looking like a church. There were too many people, so I left after taking two photos.
Hankou Riverside: You can see the Wuhan Yangtze River Second Bridge, the riverside is very long, there is actually no need to go to the Hankou Riverside located on the map, there is a riverside opposite Lihuangpi Road.
Lihuangpi Road: This area used to be a concession, with many European-style buildings, and the former site of the Communist Party of China can be visited.
Hubu Alley: There are many snacks, but there were too many people during the festival, and I didn't feel like queuing up, so I just took a simple tour and left.
Yellow Crane Tower: A landmark building in Wuhan, many celebrities have chanted poems here, it is worth a visit. There were too many people climbing the tower, so I didn't go up. I heard that there are murals inside for viewing. There are also many memorial pavilions in the garden, commemorating celebrities who have chanted poems here.
Passed the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge on the way back to the airport.
I had three fresh tofu skin and rice cakes. It's quite delicious.
Overall, the Yellow Crane Tower and Gude Temple are very beautiful, but there are too many people during the Spring Festival, the environmental sanitation needs to be improved, the subway card reader is not very sensitive, and the airport still needs manual ticket checking, which is not very convenient.

I went to Wuhan and came back feeling unsettled, not wanting to work, the aftermath is too strong~
I went to Wuhan and came back feeling unsettled, not wanting to work, the aftermath is too strong indeed!
🍃When I arrived in Wuhan, it was already noon. I put down my luggage and headed straight to Liangdao Street. With a bowl of hot dry noodles in one hand and a sweet sugar dumpling in the other, I was lost in the aroma of Wuhan's famous snacks.
🍃After eating, I went to visit the Yellow Crane Tower, one of the three famous towers in the south of the Yangtze River. It's not just a tower, but a place to understand its historical stories.
🍃In the evening, you can go to see the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, the first bridge of the Yangtze River, the first dual-purpose bridge for public and rail transport in New China. The sunset is very beautiful, and the night view is also very beautiful.
🍃Wuhan's breakfast is also not to be missed. The breakfast in Wuhan is called 'early', just like having morning tea in Guangdong, it's very comforting.
🍃After breakfast, the morning time is given to the museum. To understand a city, you have to visit its museum, which is the most direct way.
🍃The afternoon time is given to East Lake Park, a long-awaited park. Here is the largest Chu culture exchange center in the country, East Lake Park, very beautiful under the evening sunset.
🍃Coming to Wuhan, you must also take a ferry to appreciate the night view of the two banks. Wuhan's Lihuangpo Road, Chu River Han Street, Water Tower Street, Tanhua Lin, Hanjiang Road, Gude Temple, are also worth a walk.
Wuhan, this heroic city, has a long history, many beautiful scenery and food. The 'early' of Wuhan is the taste of memory, looking forward to meeting Wuhan again~

The First Yangtze River Bridge
The Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge is the first large bridge built on the 'natural moat' of the Yangtze River after the founding of New China. It is also the first large bridge on the Yangtze River in ancient and modern times. It is the first double-track railway bridge in China. After many years of wind and rain, it is still as solid as ever, lying proudly. The bridge starts from Chuqin Interchange in the west, crosses the Yangtze River waterway, and ends at Zhongshan Road in the east. The total length of the route is 1670.4 meters, the main bridge is 1155.5 meters long. The upper deck is a two-way four-lane city main road with a design speed of 100 kilometers per hour, and the lower deck is a double-track railway with a design speed of 160 kilometers per hour. It is not only a beautiful scenery on the Yangtze River, but also a historical monument, leaving an indelible impression in the lives of the people in the river city.

There are a lot of bridges in Wuhan. Although I havent visited so many attractions in Wuhan these days, the bridges on the Yangtze River have seen a lot of them. Each has its own unique charm, but it also exudes its own charm. Let's also enjoy it.
As just mentioned, the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge is a train. If your arrival station is Wuchang Station, you will definitely pass the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. I have really felt the charm of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge before I arrived in Wuhan. The train walked on the Yangtze River, watching the vast Yangtze River rolling, or feeling the dreamy lights in the night scene. The lights on both sides reflected in the water and formed a ripple of stars, so beautiful.

The bridge between the north and the south of the bridge and the turn of the sky are the true portrayal of the important role of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge in communicating China's north and south traffic.
came to the Yangtze River to see the majestic appearance of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. The construction of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge has historical significance, but the iconic architectural achievements of New China. The three towns of Wuchang, Hankou and Hanyang are connected together, and the significance is self-evident. Friends who have been to Wuhan must have been very impressed with the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge.

The Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge is located between the Snake Mountain in Wuchang District of Wuhan City and the Guishan Mountain in Hanyang, Hubei Province. It is the first bridge on the Yangtze River and the first public railway bridge built on the Yangtze River after the founding of New China. It is also known as the first bridge of the Yangtze River. At the beginning of the completion of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, it became the landmark building of Wuhan. Every summer, Wuhan people and tourists like to come to the Yangtze River to see the night. Although it is a landmark in the city, it has become one of the must-see sights for Wuhan tourism.
