The "Ancient City of Wuhu" is located in the Southwest of Wuhu (Jinghu district), at the junction of the Yangtze river with the Qingyi river. It is surrounded by the Huancheng North road, Huancheng East road, Yanhe road and Jiuhua Middle road. 

It was built during the Ming and Qing Dynasties (15th century onward), but it was also destroyed during the same period as the entire city was developing with Hui-style business and culture, but it also opened to foreign trade. After four years renovation, the ancient city of Wuhu reopened in early 2021.
