Hankou is an important part of Wuhan, one of the three towns in Wuhan, the political, financial, commercial, foreign exchange center and important transportation hub of Wuhan and even Central China. Since ancient times, Hankou has been known as "the first prosperous place in Chu" and is famous at home and abroad in the name of "Oriental Chicago".

Hankou in ancient times belongs to Hanyang County, which is one of the "Four Famous Towns" in China and one of the "Four Gathering Places in the World" ("The capital is in the north, Foshan in the south, Suzhou in the east and Hankou in the west." -Liu Xianting, "Guangyang Miscellaneous Notes"). In modern times, Hankou opened its port to establish a concession in 1861, and was briefly established as the first municipality directly under the Central Government of China in 1923.
