Ba Yi Lu (Wuhan University)

 The University (Wuhan University and others) area offers some smaller and more relaxed places to have a drink. The streets around Ba Yi Lu(武昌八一路, 武汉大学正门口东) are especially good and the Festival Bar is currently popular among Wuhan's foreign students. A similar place is the Sunshine Bar near the Shangri La hotel. The Sunshine Bar is a bit more expensive than the bars around the universities.
