I returned after 4 years to this beautiful building which dominates the city from above and from which you can enjoy a very nice view and a beautiful sunset over the city skyline on the Yangze River. The park in which the tower is built is also very beautiful. Really very beautiful and relaxing walk. I confirm that it is an absolutely must-see place.

This landmark, although not the original, has been built in the traditional pagoda style architecture. It is surrounded by a large park, which in itself is very pleasant, especially in the summer when it is hot. There are ponds and even cooling mist sprays in the shady areas. Once inside the tower, you walk up a flight of stairs to each level, and each level has beautiful decorative walls and ceilings. There are places you can buy souvenirs, I think it is on the third level. Once you reach the top, it is an open style balcony which gives panoramic views of the city of Wuhan. I was there in early September 2019. I found it very enjoyable. Many Chinese people, couples and families visit. A great introduction to Chinese culture.

We went here on the Chinese Labour Day weekend. It was busy but manageable. The area has some nice gardens as well. The highlight is the tower and they have tower shaped fudgesicle ice cream which was a nice treat.

Cost to enter is 70 RMB and one to two hours is plenty of time here.

I am a native of Wuhan and often take foreign guests to visit the attractions in Wuhan. My experience is: As a landmark building in Wuhan, the Yellow Crane Tower is a part of our childhood memory. The view from the Yellow Crane Tower is excellent, you can see the beauty of Hanyang district, the modern of Hankou district and the cultural deposits of Wuchang district. You can experience the ancient people's feelings of climbing high and looking far. In the Yellow Crane Tower Park, the winding path leads to a secluded quiet place , there are many“bonus”waiting for your excavation.

It is one of the highlights of Wuhan, but don't go on a holiday as it is very busy. I went on a May long weekend and waited over an hour and a half to get in. But, once inside you can experience a elaborate Chinese pagoda and get a nice view of the city.

This is a replica built in 1981, of a tower designed Qing Dynasty architecture, which was previously located here. The original tower, or parts thereof that date back to 223 AD. The first structure was built during the period of the Three Kingdoms (220 to 280 AD).

Went with my wife and friend on a weekday. Can be crowded in the tower even on a weekday. There’s a nice view from the top of the tower. Overall worth the ¥65 entrance fee. Start from inside the park where you can see other stuffs like museums and artwork. Be prepared to climb up several flight of stairs at the yellow crane tower to reach the top. The lift is only available to old folks 70 years old and above.

If you want to pay too much money to see a bunch of chinese people fit into a building that was not ment to contain so many, climb a bunch of stairs, over pay for the experience, listen to screaming children and be spat on, then this is where you'd like to go. Screaming children and spitting everywhere. The one really awesome thing about this tower that was re-built in the 1980's, is that it it one of the best places in wuhan to see the wonderful polluted air that induces lung cancer in all who inhabit the city. Yes, this is definitely the best place for a view of the lung cancer inducing pollution.

The Yellow Crane Tower is located along side the busy Yangtze river. There is a reasonably steep walk up to reach the Tower itself, but once there you can take a lift (or climb the stairs) to the top to get a view of the city - smog permitting. It's worth a walk around the the bottom of the tower as there are various statues and a very large bell that you can ring for a small price.

This tower is a modern building that doesn't emulate anything close to the original tower design. It is also not located at the original site. So, the only good thing about this tower is the view of the city. Therefore, it is not likely that I would visit it in future.
