Shopping

The Han Jiang Lu Walking Street, which has over 200 shops, is one of the popular cultural streets. Vendors display traditional Chinese goods that provide visitors a glimpse into Chinese ethnicity.

The Hankou commercial district, Jiefang Avenue, Wuhan Department Store, Wuhan World Trade Plaza and Wuhan Plaza are good for shopping. People’s Parade offers a wide selection of luxury branded goods.

The turquoise stone is a regional speciality. Visitors can purchase exquisite jewellery inlaid with the semi precious stone at local shops in Wuhan.

Local sweetmeats such as Xiaogan Cake and Qingshan Mahong Cake are popular among the locals. The sweetmeats are made of rice sesame and sugar and can be easily purchased at restaurants and supermarkets.
