General presentation
Jingmen et Zhongxiang
Ming Tombs, agricultural landscapes and Han Valley heritage make up a central stage of Hubei.
The discovery of Jingmen and Zhongxiang is structured around Jingmen Museum, the ancient town of Zhongxiang and Longquan Park of Jingmen. The stay thus alternates between urban life, heritage and the countryside, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: variable influx depending on the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. The main sites are generally easy to access.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Museum
Musée de Jingmen
The museum presents Chu's objects, local history and funerary discoveries of the region. Collections and remains take time to go beyond a mere photographic stop; a visit to the museum helps to understand their regional historical context.
Place indismissible
Ville ancienne de Zhongxiang
The ancient imperial city preserves temples and neighborhoods linked to the family of Emperor Jiajing. The collections and remains take time to exceed a mere photographic stop; a visit to the city helps to understand their regional historical context.
Place indismissible
Parc Longquan de Jingmen
Sources, pavilions and museums occupy a hill in the centre of Jingmen. Distances, weather and access conditions must be checked prior to departure; water, adapted footwear and hourly margin remain useful outside cities.
