The word "immature" first appeared in Zhi Zhu Ci in Hankou during Daoguang period of Qing Dynasty. At that time, people always bought food on the road in order to go to Hankou for the fair early. Nowadays, with the accelerated pace of modern life, the distance between people's work and study places and residential areas has increased, and this "premature" custom has increased. Therefore, the snack industry in Wuhan is extremely developed, with snack bars everywhere, prosperous business and full customers.

Therefore, when traveling to Wuhan, you must avoid summer, otherwise the burning sun will make you lose interest; It is very cold in winter in Wuhan, so it is not suitable to go.
