About:Jingzhou Travel

We will be traveling to Wuhan and will looking for a town which used to be called Tien Mun... it was perhaps 100 miles west of Wuhan.

Is there such a place or has it been renamed?

Thanks very much.

yes, david he writes the [correct!] pinyin spelling .. tian [sky or heaven] men [gate] .. whereas tien mun is old fashioned western phonetic spelling.

tianmen 天门 city is just north of the line and approx. half way between wuhan and jingzhou.
