Lihuangpi Road
黎黄陂路
A former Russian concession street in Hankou, with 17 European-style historic buildings under plane trees, lined with cafés, Western restaurants and literary boutiques.
Lihuangpi Road lies in Hankou's former Russian Concession and is named after Li Yuanhong, a Republican-era president from Huangpi, Hubei. About 600 metres long, it preserves more than ten century-old European-style buildings, including the former American Navy YMCA, the Russo-Asiatic Bank and Soong Ching-ling's former residence. Today it is lined with cafés, Western restaurants and boutique shops, making it Wuhan's most photogenic street for the charm of 'Old Hankou'. Heritage buildings such as the Bagong House can be visited on the same walk. Free entry all day. It is about a 10-minute walk from Dazhi Road station on Metro Line 1, or Jianghan Road station on Line 2.
