Wuhan Nanhu Airport (IATA: WUH, ICAO: ZHHH) was an airport that served Wuhan, the capital of South Central China’s Hubei province. Built in 1936, the airport served as a military air base during the Republic of China period, before being converted to a civilian airport after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The airport closed in 1995, and most of its flights were transferred to Wuhan Tianhe International Airport.
