Wuhan, the capital city of Hubei Province, China, is one of the most populous cities in central China. Located at the intersection of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and Han River, it is also known as the "thoroughfare of nine provinces." It is a major transportation hub, with dozens of railways, roads, and expressways passing through the city.
The presentation will introduce the city of Wuhan, including its history, its transportation, its tourist sites, as well as the popular foods there. Moreover, Wuhan is also the scientific and educational center in Central China, with 35 higher educational institutions covering all the fields of science and technology.
