In the past, the deserted funeral home is now in the bustle of the downtown area.

On wet roads, yellow paper money sticking to it is difficult to remove. The cleaner Zou Yuan came and was trying hard to clean on Shiqiao Road.

Shiqiao Road is the only way to the Hankou funeral home. Every morning at 6 o'clock in the morning, when most of the city is still immersed in tranquility, it has been awakened by the sound of firecrackers and sad music...

Looking around, high-rise residential buildings have been erected around and there are high-rise buildings under construction. It turned out that this is just a wilderness in Wuhan.

Reporter visits
Funeral home is in a busy city

Hankou funeral home was built by the municipal government in 1951. The years have passed, and the formerly deserted suburbs have become the bustling residential area of ​​Wuhan today. Alongside it, Xinhua Road, next to it, has also changed from a former vegetable plot to a residential and commercial area. The nearby residents met with reporters and said, "Sorrow and quarrel can't sleep, and there are still unspeakable odors in the air. This is a bustling residential area and funeral homes should be removed."

Like the Hankou funeral home, the Wuchang funeral home is also unpleasant to the surrounding residents. At 9:00 the day before yesterday, the reporter went to the Wuchang Funeral Home on Chuping Road, Xiongchu Street. On one side of the road is a row of stalls and cars are coming and going on the road. Bus 552 and 556 are the final destinations on this road.

Master Liu of a grocery store opposite the funeral home said that 20 years ago, the piece opposite the funeral home was a forest and a path. With the development of the city, it has become one of the core areas of Optics Valley, surrounded by new districts.

Master Liu said that the firecrackers in the early morning of the funeral home were loud, sorrowful, and noisy.

Hankou Museum Relocates Wuchang Pavilion Renovation

As early as in 2001, Wuhan People’s Congress representatives called for “removal of the Hankow funeral parlour in the urban area”.

At that time, NPC deputies Zhao Xiaoping and others proposed that the Hankou funeral home is now located in the urban area and surrounding residents have formed tens of thousands of people. The funeral home burns the waste generated by the body daily and can be smelled within a few square kilometers. The residents of the northern area of ​​Caijiatian, pastoral communities and other places complained. Since then, NPC deputies and members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) have proposed that the Hankou funeral parlour be relocated as soon as possible.

Yesterday, the Wuhan Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau introduced that the new Hankou funeral home has been laid in the foundation of Huanghua and is expected to be completed within 3 years. After the new building is completed, the Hankou funeral parlor will be relocated. For the Wuchang funeral home, the civil affairs department introduced that in the future, it will also carry out perfect reconstruction, and the rated limit will reduce the impact on the nearby areas.
