Zhongshan Park (Wuhan)
中山公园(武汉)
A century-old park in the heart of Hankou, blending Chinese and Western garden styles with lakes and an amusement area. It's a park that Wuhan residents have grown up visiting.
Wuhan Zhongshan Park is on Jiefang Avenue in Jianghan District. It was originally a private garden called “Xiyuan” in the 1910s, and was converted into a park in 1928 to commemorate Sun Yat-sen. The front section features a Chinese-style garden with a lakeside pavilion, a zigzag bridge and the Chessboard Hill. The central section has European-style fountains and the Hall of Surrender, where Japanese forces signed the surrender document in 1945. The rear section is an amusement area. Admission is free, but rides are charged separately. Zhongshan Park Station on Metro Line 2 is right by the park, and it can be combined with Wuhan Tiandi and Jiefang Park.
