Jianghan District in Hankou is Wuhan's central commercial district, and the site of three featured shopping streets.
Hanzheng Jie for small commodities Hanzheng Jie was once the main street of ancient Hankou, and an astonishing variety of small commodities are traded here and in the three adjoining streets.
Jianghan Lu Pedestrian Street Jianghan Lu Pedestrian Street is 'the Bund' of Wuhan. It runs from Jianghan No. 4 road to the riverside, and is known as the 'architecture museum'. Like the Bund in Shanghai, old and new buildings along the street contributed to an extraordinary mix of architectural styles ranging from Qing Dynasty through to nineteenth-century European classic and 20th-century modern buildings. Bursting with crowds, the street is a best place to walk, shop, spend money and watch modern Chinese doing the same.
Jiqing Lu for snacks Jiqing Lu is renowned for its eateries and snack stalls. Baozi (steamed stuffed buns) at Sijimei, dry noodles with sesame paste at Cailinji, sticky rice fried in egg rolls at Laotongcheng and chicken soup at Xiaotaoyuan are all worth trying.
