Introducing Nan'anzui

At Wuhan's Nan'anzui, where the Yangtze River and the Han River meet, you'll realize that even in the heart of the city, you can still experience the splendor of the vast sky and land. Looking down at the confluence of the two rivers, Nan'anzui is like a pearl held up by two dragons.

Nan'anzui has a unique landform, reminiscent of Hong Kong's "Victoria Harbour" and New York's "Manhattan". It is also similar to the famous "German Corner", the confluence of the Rhine and Mosse rivers, and is also known as the "China Corner".
