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.

I think the most necessary place to check in is the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. It happens to come out of the Yellow Crane Tower. Not far ahead is the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. The scenery seen in the bridgehead bridge and at the end of the bridge is very different, especially the sunset. It is really beautiful to see the sunset. Standing on the bridge and looking up at the Yangtze River. The source of the long flow, the various ships passing by the river, can not help but remind me of that poem, the old man Xishi Yellow Crane Tower, fireworks in March down Yangzhou, lonely sail far shadow blue sky, only see the Yangtze River sky flow, this situation, perfect match!
