Fired the first shot of the Revolution of 1911, Uprising Gate

Location: Shouyi Road, Wuchang, Wuhan City

Introduction: Witnesses of the Revolution of 1911. The Uprising Gate was originally the Zhonghe Gate of the ancient city of Wuchang. It was built in the Hongwu Period of the Ming Dynasty (1368) and has a history of more than 700 years. It is the only one of the nine gates in the ancient city of Wuchang that has been preserved to this day.
Uprising Gate played a pivotal strategic position in the Wuchang Uprising of the Revolution of 1911 and was called "the beginning of the victory of Shouyi" by historians. To commemorate it, Zhonghe Gate was renamed Uprising Gate. The city tower was abandoned before liberation, and the Uprising Gate we see now was renovated in recent years.
