    1. Wuhan University

      Attraction

      Wuhan University

      Enter only under the university's current public-access rules. If foreign-passport admission is not confirmed, skip the campus and begin directly at Moshan rather than arguing at a gate.

    3. East Lake Moshan

      Attraction

      East Lake Moshan

      Use Moshan for the greener, more expansive lake day. Choose one hill-and-waterfront route and verify the current gate, sightseeing vehicles and weather controls.
