Discover Hubei Province
In central China, Hubei Province lies along the middle Yangtze River, mixing plains, lakes and mid‑mountain ranges.
It is home to major highlights such as the Yangtze Three Gorges and Dam, the Wudang Mountains, Shennongjia forest, the karst canyons of Enshi, and historic cities like Wuhan, Jingzhou and Xiangyang.
Why visit Hubei?
-
- For river landscapes and cruises through the Three Gorges.
- For sacred mountains (Wudang), UNESCO‑listed Shennongjia and Enshi’s karst canyons.
- For rich history and cultures, from the Chu Kingdom and Three Kingdoms stories to revolutionary heritage and Tujia/Miao traditions.
Hubei has a humid subtropical monsoon climate: summers are hot and humid in lowlands like Wuhan but cooler in the mountains; spring and autumn are the most comfortable seasons to visit.
