Wuhan

Wuhan is a city with an ancient history. It occupies a uniquely central position for transport with the Yangtze flowing west–east and land transport bridging the Yangtze River from north–south. See Wuhan tours, some of which include a Yangtze cruise.
Wuhan is famous more as a place for drinking tea, with its many tea houses, than for growing tea, although there is a famous tea-growing area 200 kilometers (130 miles) southwest in Junshan, Hunan Province. Junshan Silver Needle (Junshan Yin Zhen 君山银针) has been ranked among China's top ten teas in some versions of the imperial list. Yellow was the imperial color and Silver Needle is a yellow tea.
