Next Stop: Yellow Crane Tower

Well... this place is worth a second look - written in advance. ⏳Time to visit: 3-5 hours. 🌟Highlights: One of the four great towers of Jiangnan, the scene of the poem by Li Bai, the Immortal Poet, bidding farewell to Meng Haoran. 🕙Opening hours: Daytime: 8:30-18:00, Nighttime: 19:30-22:00 📍Address: No. 1, West Slope, Sheshan, Wuchang 👍Most recommended: Of course, the main tower, where you can overlook the Yangtze River. 🗓Itinerary: Yellow Crane Tower → Hubu Lane → Yangtze River. 🧳Preparation: You can bring some water and snacks, although it's not high, but they are all on the mountain. 🚉Transportation: Nearest subway station: Jiyuqiao. 📝Tips: 1: Note that this is not an ancient building, but a new one, so be prepared (this is one of the reasons why some people in Wuhan are not interested in it). 2: Local people in Wuhan don't come here unless they have to... except to take their friends on a tour, or if there is a competition here (similar to Leifeng Pagoda~). 3: There is more to see at Yellow Crane Tower than just the main tower, don't forget Baiyun Pavilion (the one you see after climbing the main tower). 4: The Millennium Bell is optional, if I remember correctly, there is a charge for ringing the bell... The official photo spot for the main tower is definitely the bronze gourd, which is also a good place to take your own photos. 5: In addition to the two buildings, Luomei Pavilion is also a nice place to relax with few tourists... 6: The restaurant at Luomei Pavilion is not recommended, but you can try it yourself. 7: Hubu Lane is nearby, you can walk there after leaving the scenic area, and go to the Yangtze River to watch the sunset. 8: If you don't want to go up but want to take a photo with Yellow Crane Tower, there are many photo spots online, such as the Yellow Crane Tower Station at Simenkou Subway Station. 9: If you have all the technical equipment and applications, you can fly a drone on the bridge at the west gate of the scenic area, where trains from Wuchang often pass by Yellow Crane Tower (a classic photo spot). 10: There are many places worth visiting near Yellow Crane Tower, so it is recommended to visit them together.
