I carefully selected the Aiyin Hotel on Jianghan Road Pedestrian Street this time. The hotel is very good except that the rooms are a bit small and noisy. The location is super good. Downstairs is the Jiqing Street Snack Street. You can walk to Lihuang Road, Bagong House, Pedestrian Street, Jiangtan and other attractions. --- ### **Useful Tips** 1. **Reservation**: Yellow Crane Tower and Provincial Museum require advance reservations, and Optics Valley Sky Train tickets can be purchased through the mini program. 2. **Transportation**: The subway covers the main attractions, East Lake is recommended for cycling, and the cross-river ferry is cost-effective. 3. **Avoid the crowds**: Yellow Crane Tower ice cream melts easily, it is recommended to rent a car to walk the East Lake Greenway, and avoid the sun exposure on the Yangtze River Bridge at noon. --- **Wuhan, a heroic city, is also a world where poetry and everyday life coexist. Two days and one night is short, but it is enough to touch her thousand-year-old culture and surging future.** **Follow me to learn about eating, drinking, and having fun all over the country**
