Willettsworld Says: Had lunch at this place which I think is a small chain in China. The menu is a bit "specialist" Chinese with dishes such as pigeon and duck feet and not much in the way of "normal" Chinese food. I had beef and mushroom slices with rice and a can of coke which cost Y36....
Mychoice: Cheap food & English
Willettsworld Says: This place has some great cheap food. I had a good red Thai chicken curry, rice, potato waffles and a beer for Y40. The previous night, I popped in for a fancy ice cream for just Y10. The guy here speaks very good English and the menu is also in English.

Willettsworld Says: I took a few taxi's to get around Wuhan as the tourist sites are very spread out. Taxis operate in different districts of Wuhan and you can easily take any of them to cruise the city. Fare starts from 8 Yuan for the first three kilometres (1.86 miles), and 1.4 Yuan for each...
Jianghan Road: Wuhan's Most Popular Shopping District

Shops: at Yellow Crane Tower Park
Willettsworld Says: As you approach the main entrance into the Yellow Crane Tower Park, you'll walk along this street known as the Yellow Crane Promenade which is lined with ancient-style shops selling souvenirs, snacks and such like for tourists.
easterntrekker Says: I first got a chance to sample lotus root in Wuhan. We had it both deep fried and also stir fried . It was very tasty.Its not an easy crop to harvest. Farmers drain the ponds and then when the plant dies down they find the root with their feet in the mud!
easterntrekker Says: Scarf dancing was very popular with the people from ancient times . We are told the Emporer of 2000 years ago was taken withthe beautiful slim girls preforming this dance. We enjoyed the show at the Hubei provincial Museum.
Watch out at the Government Stores
easterntrekker Says: We were often taken to "government stores" where we soon found out the prices are rediculously high. Often we saw the same products from venders and small markets for a fraction of the cost! As an example I was shown a silk jacket for $79.00 . If you are told by your guide...
easterntrekker Says: On the drive from Wuhan across Hubei province we got to see the countryside. People here grow on very small farms a variety of crops, cottone, rice , corn, lotus and even fish in little ponds . No space is wasted. I was surprised to see how small the farms were and that they...
