Western architecture design and structure technique unceasing spread with technical support for Hankow modern architecture. During this period, Wuhan gradually sprang up ＂the Chinese Business＂, ＂the West Business＂, ＂the International Business＂ horse-racing Arenas. This kind of building space layout and function of courtyard, climate adaptability of design, innovation of long-span structure design, meticulous details properly, opened up an innovation of a large space entertainment type construction design. We expect to reveal the original design features of the modern Wuhan horse-racing arena and propose protection suggestion in future, by analyzing the produce, development and space layout of horse-racing arena of Wuhan in modern times.
