Hubei Travel Routes

Wuhan · Three Gorges · Wudang Mountain · Shennongjia

Hubei is a province of 'rivers and mountains': Wuhan 2 days, Three Gorges cruise 3 days, Wudang Mountain 2 days, 5–8 days.

Provincial Routes and Cities

Hubei is traversed by the Yangtze River: Wuhan's Yellow Crane Tower and Jianghan Road show the look of a river port city, Yichang to the west features the Three Gorges Dam and Xiling Gorge, and Wudang Mountain in the northwest is a sacred site of Taoism and the origin of martial arts. This site arranges Hubei into a 5-day Wuhan–Three Gorges itinerary and a 7-day itinerary including Wudang Mountain.
