The Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, also called the First Bridge, was built over the Yangtze River (Chang Jiang) in 1957, carrying the railroad directly across the river between Snake Hill and Turtle Hill. Before this bridge was built it could take up to an entire day to barge railcars across. Including its approaches, it is 5,511 feet (1680 m) long, and it accommodates both a double-track railway on a lower deck and a four lane roadway above. It was built with the assistance of advisers from the Soviet Union.

It's the first ever bridge built across Yangtze River. The bridge is 1670.4 meters long with the main body of 1156 meters. The bridge was built in 1955, the bridge contains two levels, the upper level is for car and bus and the lower level is for train. People were first time be able to across Yangze River without ferry.
To have a better view of the bridge, you can go to top of the Yellow Crane Tower on the Snake Hill.
