Wuhan Art Museum

An ordinary-seeming street by day, becomes transformed by night into a bewildering maze of streetside restaurants and buskers performing music, dance, opera and stand-up comedy. It is a strongly-recommended experience. Food is plentiful and cheap, and it features a lot of unique local cuisine. The performances can be enjoyed by proxy as performers work other tables or they can be purchased. One can expect to pay about ¥10 per song performed. Other performances are more based on contributions—the more you contribute, the longer the performers will do their routines and the more daring/interesting/funny the routines will be.

Founded in 1876 to serve the local Russian community. In 1891, Russian prince Nicholas II (who would later become the last tsar of Russia) visited Wuhan and provided funding for the rebuilding of the church, which was completed in 1893. It is the oldest surviving Russian Orthodox church in China. As of late 2024, it hosts a photo exhibition summing up the history of Chinese–Russian tea trade, carefully explained in Mandarin and Russian (but no English).

Wuhan's oldest and largest Catholic church. It was designed by an Italian missionary by the name of Angelus Vaudagna and completed in 1876.

The museum is housed inside a former British-owned power station that dates from 1905. At the time, it was one of the largest power-generating facilities in China.

Zhang Tianyou (Jeme Tien-Yow) (1861-1919) was an outstanding engineer from Guangdong Province who is credited with being the 'father of China's railways'. He lived here from 1912 until his death in 1919. The mansion is open to the public and hosts an exhibition about Zhang's life.
