From my experience, most people in Wuhan are usually quite laid-back and friendly. They are known to be very hot-tempered though.

Wow, what a feedback!
|
yeah, china is really very fascinating, but still has so much poverty over there... Let's see if the new constructions will clean that... btw nice photos of whuan... Thanks..
|
^It's indeed fascinating! I just saw this thread now, it deserve more feedback, yes.

Thx, guys! ;)
@Mkmillenium: Sure thing. The poverty issues are indeed too severe to be resolved overnight. But China is on a good way. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- TODAY'S UPDATE: Wuchang Yangtze Riverside From the Yangtze shore in Wuchang u have a great view on Hankou and Hanyang. The skyline may not be very dense yet, but things will change drastically during the next 5 years (Wuhan CBD, Wuhan Tiandi, Splendid Yangtze Phase II and III =>see Zorg's Construction Thread in the City/Metro Compilations Section). http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/567...angtan2mu3.jpg Holiday Inn Hotel - One of Wuhan's earliest highrises during the reform era http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/8...angtan5sl0.jpg http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/215...angtan6qq0.jpg http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/804...angtan8he0.jpg Splendid Yangtze Phase I http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/3...ngtan12qb0.jpg http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/6...gtan12bpi4.jpg http://img57.imageshack.us/img57/821...ngtan15kr6.jpg http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/266...ngtan21wf8.jpg http://img57.imageshack.us/img57/708...ngtan22nj1.jpg http://img129.imageshack.us/img129/2...ngtan24qq3.jpg Changjiang Daqiao http://img129.imageshack.us/img129/6...ngtan25fl6.jpg Longwangmiao International Plaza (u/c) http://img129.imageshack.us/img129/6...ngtan26bt1.jpg http://img129.imageshack.us/img129/9...ngtan27kw1.jpg Wuhan Times Square (186m) http://img68.imageshack.us/img68/792...ngtan73kc8.jpg |

Yantze River at Qingshan
Qingshan is Wuhan's base of Heavy Industry. Almost everyone living here seems to be connected to "Wuhan Steel" (aka "Wugang" / "WISCO") or one of its' countless subbranches in some way. As there is not so much (cityscape-wise) interesting to see here yet, I am only posting a view pics of the Qingshan riverside and its' gigantic new bridge under construction... Parts of Qingshan including the new Tainxingzhou-Bridge as seen in Google Earth (the heavy smoke is coming from WISCO and SINOPEC) http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/981...nbridgept3.jpg http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/6...angtze1tv6.jpg I am not sure about the actual heigth of those pylons, but believe me when I say they are FREAKIN' high... http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/8...angtze2yt7.jpg Here u can see how the bridge crosses a quite big island in the middle of the river - Tianxingzhou http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/6...angtze5jb6.jpg http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/7...angtze6uz3.jpg http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/9...angtze8sf5.jpg |

It's extremely cool to see all those quality pictures of Wuhan(A city which is not much represented here.)
Maybe a silly question but do you live in Wuhan? It seemed like you knew where the construction was going on etc. Anyway, this thread don't get enought attention. It was by randomnes I clicked on the Asia-Pacific section, now I'am glad I did. I'll try to visit it more often. :) |
哦,piaoliang le

武汉很大城市.....

@Bergenser:
Glad u like the thread. Adressing ur question: Well, I do not exactly live in Wuhan now, but I did so for more than a year back in 2005/2006. As my wife is from Wuhan I am still going there every year. So, I guess I am quite familiar to the city. @我不懂英语: 谢谢。你是哪里的? 好像不是中国人把。:) |
This is a huge thread... very nice, informative pictures.
|
Groovy stuff O'Lord. Might I be so bold as to suggest posting this thread, and subsequent picturegraph threads, in My Cities - International? The poor China subforum barely sees the light of day.

Thanks guys! Perhaps u r right, Bob. I think I will do as u suggested. Anyway, here comes the rest of my Wuhan pics (part 1 of 2)!
