Introduction to Wuhan:
Wuhan, referred to as "Han" or "Jiangcheng" for short, is the capital of Hubei Province, the largest city in Central China and the only sub-provincial city, the most prosperous city in China, and the regional central city of China people. As early as the Neolithic Age 6000 years ago, our ancestors lived here. The site of Panlongcheng in the northern suburb, as the beginning of Wuhan, has a history of 3500 years. During the Republic of China, Hankou was highly prosperous and was known as Chicago in the East. Wuhan's comprehensive strength is second only to Shanghai, and it ranks in the forefront of Asia.
Wuhan is located in the east of Jianghan Plain. The Yangtze River, the third largest river in the world, and the Hanshui River, its largest tributary, pass through the city, dividing the urban area of Wuhan into three parts, forming a pattern of Wuchang, Hankou and Hanyang separated by a river. Li Bai, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, once wrote here that "the Jade Emperor blows the Yellow Crane Tower, and plum blossoms fall into the river in May", so Wuhan has been known as the river city since ancient times.
The city now governs 13 urban areas and 3 national development zones, covering an area of 8467 square kilometers. Rivers crisscross the territory, lakes and harbors are intertwined, and hundreds of mountains are located between them. The water area accounts for a quarter of the city's area, which constitutes a very distinctive riverside and lakeside water ecological environment.
Wuhan is an important scientific research and education base in China. As of 20 14, there are 98 institutions of higher learning in China; Among them, the number of ordinary universities and undergraduate colleges ranks second in the country after Beijing, the number of national key universities directly under the Ministry of Education ranks third in the country, and the total number of college students and graduate students is1072,600, ranking first in the world.
