WUHU

Wú-hú

This port (the name of which signifies grass and lakes," ie., swamps) was opened to foreign trade, by the Chefoo Convention, on the 1st April, 1877 It is situated on the Yangtsze, in the province of An-hwei, and is a

"half-way port between Chinkiang and Kewkiang, though nearer to the former. It has the appearance of a thriving and busy town, and is admirably located for trade. This is mainly owing to the excellence of its water communication with the interior. A large canal, with a depth of five to six feet of water in the winter and 10 to 12 feet in the summer, connects the port with the important city of Ning-kuoh-fu, in southern An-hwei 50 miles distant. Another canal runs inland for over eight miles in a south-westerly direction to Taiping-hsien, an extensive tea district. This canal, which is only navigable in the summer, passes through Nan-ling and King-hsien, where the cultivation of silk is carried on, and may some day be of importance. The silk districts of Nan-ling and King-lisien are situated within 50 miles of Wuhu. Besides the canals leading to Ning-kuoh-fu and Taiping-hsien, there are two others communicating with Su-an and Tung-pó.
