  • I thought Nanjing was already beautiful, until I came here...

    I thought Nanjing's beauty was unparalleled, until I came across Qixia Mountain, and realized that there are even more beautiful places in the world. Qixia Mountain is the most beautiful mountain in Jinling, and is one of the four best places to see maple leaves. Every autumn, the mountain is covered with red leaves, like a sea of fire, and the scenery is so beautiful that it is like a painting. The main attractions are Mingjing Lake, Qixia Temple, Hongye Valley, and Shihuang Linjiang. Every step is a beautiful scene, and every frame is like a painting. You can't miss taking photos here! The original price of the adult ticket is CNY 80, but if you book one day in advance, it is only CNY 75. Students, seniors, and others can also enjoy discounts with their ID cards. It is recommended to enter from the west gate and exit from the south gate, so you can see different scenery. If you are tired, the sightseeing bus is a great choice, with a one-way ticket costing CNY 10 per stop. There are many hotels and inns at the foot of the mountain, with a wide range of prices. The environment is pleasant. As for food, Qixia vegetarian food, osmanthus sugar taro seedlings, and duck blood vermicelli soup are authentic Nanjing flavors that you can't miss. The best time to see the maple leaves is from late November to early December. If you want to save money, you can enter the park before 7 am for free. Finally, please note that there is no hot water supply in the park, so be sure to bring a thermos. Come to Qixia Mountain and enjoy the beautiful maple leaves!

  • Life advice: You must come here for a city walk before leaving Nanjing.

    Life advice: You must come here for a city walk before leaving Nanjing|||You must come to Nanjing. Nanjing in autumn is really worth visiting! ❤️ When you come to Nanjing in autumn, remember to come here for a city walk. This route covers the essence of the old city of Nanjing, and many popular spots are on this route. - ‼️Specific route: Chaotian Palace ➡️ Yuedong Xinmenxi ➡️ Porcelain Tower of Nanjing ➡️ Laomendong ➡️ Xiaoxihu Scenic Area ➡️ Confucius Temple - 📍① Chaotian Palace The ginkgo trees in Chaotian Palace in autumn are a must-see. The golden ginkgo trees and red palace walls are a perfect match. 💯 This is also the location of the Nanjing Museum, and the collections in the museum are worth seeing. - 📍② Yuedong Xinmenxi The most popular "Nanjing" wall is here, specifically in Building 18 of the park, near the parking lot exit. - 📍③ Porcelain Tower of Nanjing A great museum to visit, with a rich collection of exhibits and innovative displays. There are not many visitors, so the experience is great. The book frame at the entrance is a popular photo spot. - 📍④ Laomendong A lively place all year round, with bluestone roads that have the characteristics of Jiangnan alleys. At this time of year, the Chinese tallow trees on the west side of the street are beautiful. - 📍⑤ Xiaoxihu Scenic Area The street is opposite Laomendong, connected to Dayoufang Lane. There are many small literary and artistic shops, which are great for taking photos. - 📍⑥ Confucius Temple A must-visit attraction when traveling to Nanjing. The Imperial Examination Hall, Dacheng Hall, Wuyi Lane, and Qinhuai River all have a strong sense of history. At night, you can experience the "Qinhuai River in the sound of oars and lights" described by Mr. Zhu Ziqing. - This time, I came to Confucius Temple for a city walk with my friends and found that there is also a Grandpa No Tea here, which I love. It is located on Dashiba Street, and you can see it after crossing the Wenyuan Bridge next to the Jiangnan Examination Hall. - I ordered the upgraded version of lychee ice brew. The upgraded version of Phoenix Dancong tea and Zhangpu Wushi lychee juice are perfectly blended, with milk, osmanthus rice wine, and osmanthus jelly added. It is sweet but not greasy, with a richer taste. The pink cup is also upgraded, with a high appearance. I was asked about it all the way while taking photos with it in my hand. It is really beautiful.

  • Architectural Aesthetics｜Art space transformed from cement factory.

    Hard core space, wrapped in tranquility The original site of the design hotel in Nanjing Garden Expo was a cement factory. After renovation, the designer combined the original industrial elements with modern design concepts to create an accommodation experience that is both spatially powerful and comfortable. 😍I like the environmental design here, ♨️The public hot spring has a high dome design and arched floor-to-ceiling glass windows. The window faces the bamboo forest, and it is very comfortable to soak in the hot spring. 🍴The restaurant is also my favorite, with a cave-style design. It offers Western food for dinner. The semi-buffet breakfast in the morning is very rich, and the a la carte products are of high quality and delicious. [Awesome] When you come to the Garden Expo, you can also go to Suyun Thirteen Gardens, Hug Paradise, Underwater Botanical Garden and other attractions, which are suitable for vacation.

  • I can't hide it anymore. I went to Nanjing, and everyone thought I went abroad.

    😎 "Gingko Lake Park, a stunning resort!" 😎 Hey guys! 😜 The cool breeze has been carrying the scent of osmanthus flowers these days, so my friend and I went to an amazing place—Gingko Lake Park! 🤩 Compared to the city center, the eco-park here is less crowded and more fun, with large lawns, rolling hills, and lakes of all sizes...

  • Compared to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, I recommend visiting here in autumn.

    Because of the saying "Half of Nanjing's history is in Niushou Mountain," I came to Nanjing from Hangzhou. In the changing landscape, you can see a thousand years of history. The Foding Palace is magnificent on a sunny day, but it was drizzling when I visited, so I didn't get a photo of the golden "durian shell." However, Niushou Mountain is also poetic after the rain. This time, I took a new route, "Dongchan Xinlu," which is less well-known and a niche route. From the "Huaxin Gate" in front of the Foding Palace, I walked up the bluestone road with an umbrella, surrounded by the fragrance of osmanthus. The whole road is quiet, with only the sound of birds and insects, which fits the name "Xinlu" (Heart Journey). If this is your first time visiting Niushou Mountain, it's more convenient to enter from the east gate. Take the shuttle bus to Tianque Station, and the escalator will take you to the Foding Palace and Foding Pagoda. If you have time, you can go to the Hilton Nanjing Niushoushan after leaving the park and have a cup of the autumn special "Osmanthus Latte." The lobby bar has floor-to-ceiling windows facing the ginkgo forest, which looks even better in late autumn. The whole hotel is very well-designed and perfect for taking photos. 📍: Niushou Mountain Cultural Tourism Zone 🚄: It's recommended to take the train to Nanjing South Railway Station, which is closer to the scenic area. 🚇: Take Metro Line S1 to Hohai University Focheng West Road, then take a taxi. You can also transfer to a bus, 755/712/G70, to Niushou Mountain Bus Station. 🎫: Tickets are CNY 145 online one day in advance and CNY 160 on-site on the day. 🧳: There is luggage storage at both the east and west gates.

  • Next month, Qixia Mountain in Nanjing will be like this.

    The mountain will be covered in red and gold leaves 🍁, with the whole mountain a riot of color! Ginkgo, maple, tallow, sycamore, and yellowhorn trees all have their own beauty. You can start planning your autumn visit in late November. Last year, I entered through the South Gate and exited through the West Gate. The South Gate turnstile is right at the entrance, so you don't have to wait in line and can enter quickly! The path up the mountain is mostly wide, with few steps, so you can take your time and take photos without getting too tired. 📝 Autumn Viewing Route: South Gate → Yinma Pool → Qingfeng Sword → Shicha Pavilion → Chunyu Bridge → Shamao Peak → Qixia Temple → Caihong Mirror → West Gate 🚌 Recommended Transportation: There are bus stops at both the South and West Gates, with buses to the subway station. 🎫 Ticket Information: Free entry before 7:00 am. Adult tickets are CNY 80, student tickets are half price. 🕰 Photo taken on December 2, 2023.

  • October 18, the photos are too outrageous... Is anyone going to take care of China Green Expo Park?

    · 42-year-old sister｜160cm｜48 kg · Photos｜Travel｜Outfits｜Share the beauty💕 It's really outrageous! I never understood why such a beautiful China Green Expo Park doesn't charge admission! It rained these days, so I thought about taking some photos of the cloudy atmosphere of China Green Expo Park. The sunflowers were blooming, and I didn't expect the sun to come out while I was taking photos. It was sunny and cloudy, and the light was changing. But the photos turned out great in both sunny and cloudy weather. 📸Photo tips 🌻 The Dutch Garden has tulips in spring and sunflowers in autumn. The sunflowers are in the Dutch Garden, which you can navigate to directly. It's right at the entrance. They are in full bloom, but there aren't too many tourists. You can find a good angle to take satisfying photos. 🏡 The second location is the white house in the green residential area where I took photos in spring. Although the daisies are gone, it's still the home in my heart from American TV shows. 👗Outfit tips I bought this Zara Gatsby Wizard of Oz dress in summer but never wore it. The temperature was nice that day, so I finally wore it this year. It's beautiful, but the quality control is really bad. The outer layer shrank after washing. It became shorter than the lining, so I had to shorten the lining. Fortunately, I'm not tall, and the dress was long, so the length is still fine after shortening. 📍Nanjing China Green Expo Park ➊Dutch Garden➋Green Residential Area

  • Who hasn't seen the most spectacular half-body Buddha statue in Nanjing? It's absolutely amazing!

    When I first saw a photo of this statue, I immediately decided to visit Lishui to see it for myself. The scene is incredibly impressive, and this is probably the most magnificent half-body Buddha statue in Nanjing. This statue is located at Donglu Mountain Guanyin Temple in Lishui and dates back to the Yuan Dynasty, with a long history. The newly built temple is actually a branch of Jiming Temple, facing Zhongshan Lake, with Donglu Mountain behind it, and the source of the Qinhuai River is also here. Whether you use a phone, camera, or drone, whether it's sunny or rainy, you can take great photos here. It doesn't matter what equipment you use or the weather, just take the photos. 📍Location: Donglu Mountain Guanyin Temple 🔥Tickets: Free 🚗1.5-hour drive from the city center 🚅15-minute high-speed train ride from Nanjing South Station to Lishui Station, then a 9-minute taxi ride to the destination. ✅Visiting Route Guanyin Cave - Jingping Square - Thousand-Hand Guanyin - Buddha Statue - Guanyin Zen Temple ✔︎Follow this route, park at the foot of the mountain, walk up the mountain, and then return ✔︎If you're mainly there to photograph the Buddha statue, you can drive directly up the mountain ✔︎Weekends and holidays are crowded, so if you want to capture empty scenery, go early.

The autumn atmosphere is incredibly rich, and the Republic of China-era buildings are perfect for street photography in the afternoon's yellow light and shadow. 4️⃣ Visit Jiming Temple and climb the Ming City Wall (ticket: CNY 20). When I went, the lighting wasn't great, and Jiming Temple and Zifeng Tower were backlit. However, Xuanwu Lake was beautiful, with its blue surface contrasting with the city wall, truly deserving its reputation as Nanjing's "sea." 5️⃣ Pilu Temple (ticket: CNY 20), where you can get three incense sticks for blessings. This is a must-visit spot for autumn photography! When the ginkgo trees turn yellow, it will be breathtaking. The Buddha, red pagoda, and ginkgo trees showcase the charm of Chinese aesthetics. 6️⃣ Mochou Lake, with beautiful tallow trees and elegant, friendly swans. 🦢 7️⃣ Dongyuan Bridge, a great spot for capturing the night view of the Qinhuai River. No crowds of tourists, just a comfortable evening breeze and passing boats. After taking photos here, enjoy a leisurely dinner! ▪️ Day 2: 1️⃣ Wutong Avenue. Set the alarm for 5:30 am, quickly freshen up, and take a taxi (it's really cold). Around 7 am, capture the less crowded Wutong Avenue (taxi location: Nanjing Ten Dynasties Historical and Cultural Park - Exit 2). 2️⃣ Around 7:15 am, capture the plane trees and the "Tyndall effect," a truly magical sight! 3️⃣ Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum + Yanque Lake. The red and yellow intertwined water cypress trees, bathed in sunlight, are stunning. Black swans, wild ducks, and other wildlife occasionally appear in the lake. 4️⃣ Purple Mountain Cable Car. Be sure to ride with friends, have them take photos of you on the way up, and you take photos of them on the way down. It's both photogenic and fun! 5️⃣ Music Stage (ticket: CNY 10). This place is really popular, with lots of tourists. But feeding the pigeons and waiting for a flock to take off is incredibly impressive, even if you don't capture it on video.

  • Nanjing in autumn, you're so beautiful that I hardly recognize you...

    "Nanjing under the shade of the plane trees, the autumn is strong." How can Nanjing be absent from the autumn in the south of the Yangtze River? If you have already appreciated the garden style of Suzhou and Hangzhou, you might as well come to Nanjing and feel its grand beauty. Nanjing in autumn is your best choice for travel. - ✅There are several must-visit places in Nanjing: 1⃣️Plane Tree Avenue The plane leaves in autumn are golden and brilliant. The best time to visit is in the early morning, when there are few people and cars. It is a good time to take photos, and you may also encounter the beautiful scenery of the Tyndall effect. 2⃣️Meiling Palace Overlooking from the air, Plane Tree Avenue is like a delicate necklace, and Meiling Palace is the most dazzling gem on it. 3⃣️Liu Hui Xie Close to the music stand, this is a little-known quiet place to enjoy autumn. 4⃣️Pilu Temple Compared with Jiming Temple, there are few people here. The ginkgo leaves in autumn are beautiful, and the statue of "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva" in the temple is even more shocking. 5⃣️Laomendong The red leaves of the Chinese tallow tree and the white walls and black tiles complement each other, showing the colorful style of Nanjing in autumn, like a vivid watercolor painting. - 🗺️Recommended autumn tour route in Nanjing: Plane Tree Avenue → Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum → Meiling Palace → Nanjing Music Stand → Liu Hui Xie → Pilu Temple → Laomendong

  • Autumn in Nanjing! I prefer this street to the Phoenix Tree Avenue.

    "Half of the history of the Republic of China in a Jinling City" . For those who come to Nanjing in autumn, Life advice: I recommend you to visit Yihe Road instead of the Phoenix Tree Avenue. The retro yellow buildings of the Republic of China, plus the phoenix trees along the road, Personally, I think Yihe Road is much more beautiful than the Phoenix Tree Avenue! . Citywalk here feels very healing, You can really understand the history of the Republic of China in Jinling City, On sunny days, the light and shadow are particularly beautiful🍂 The nearby area is also very suitable for citywalk～ . Recommended route: Jiangsu Road - Yihe Mansion - Pioneer Bookstore - Yihe Road - Gulou Road . Thanks for reading, see you next time👋🏻

  • Nanjing, I'm back again.

    I'm back in Nanjing again~ But this time, I mainly went to the Confucius Temple in Nanjing. The Confucius Temple is located on the beautiful Qinhuai River. It is one of the four major Confucian temples in China. It was not only the cultural and educational center of Nanjing during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but also an ancient architectural complex with a thousand years of cultural heritage. There is not only a solemn Confucian temple, but also ancient streets and lanes, exquisite gardens, and rich historical and cultural relics, where you can learn more about the history and culture of Nanjing. Recommended tour route🚩 🚶‍♂️Start from the Confucius Temple Square, admire the majestic Confucius Temple gate and exquisite screen wall. Then visit the Confucian Temple to learn about Confucius's life and great thoughts; go to the Xuegong to feel the academic atmosphere of the ancient academy; stroll in the Gongyuan to explore the mystery of the ancient imperial examination system. Finally, stroll along the Qinhuai River🚶🏼‍♀️, admire the scenery on both sides of the river and the ancient buildings. Recommended food: 🍲There are many famous Nanjing snacks around the Confucius Temple in Nanjing, such as chicken soup dumplings, duck blood vermicelli soup, 🍜beef pot stickers, etc. These foods are not only delicious🍭, but also have strong local characteristics, and are a must-try food experience. 🚇Transportation guide: subway Take Subway Line 1 to Sanshanjie Station, get off and walk for about 15 minutes from Exit 1 or Exit 3 to reach the Confucius Temple. Or take Subway Line 3 to Confucius Temple Station, get off and walk south along Pingjiangfu Road from Exit 2 or Exit 3 to reach the Confucius Temple. 🚌Bus: You can take many buses to the Confucius Temple, such as Route 1, Route 2, Route 23, Route 301, etc. You can choose the appropriate bus route according to your location. 🚕Self-driving: If you choose to drive, you need to check the parking information in advance. There are multiple parking lots around the Confucius Temple to choose from.

  • This is not the Great Wall in Beijing, but the 10,000-meter Great Wall in Nanjing that 99% of people don't know about.

    📍Detailed address: Nanjing Pukou Pearl Spring Scenic Area (you can go straight to the amusement park/barbecue area after entering the park) 🕰Opening hours: 8:30-17:30, stop entering the park at 16:00 🎫Great Wall ticket: CNY 25/person, you need to buy the Pearl Spring Scenic Area ticket first 🏔The 10,000-meter Great Wall in Nanjing is located in the Dingshan Mountain Range of the Pearl Spring Scenic Area. The appearance is a 1:1 imitation of the Badaling Great Wall in Beijing. Because of the high degree of restoration, standing on the top of the Great Wall and looking down, you will feel like you are on the top of the Great Wall in the north. The Great Wall of Nanjing includes the Moon Watching Platform, Dafeng Pass, Wangjianglou Castle, and other points. The architectural style retains the ancient castle appearance. The Great Wall is divided into two floors: the upper floor provides services such as sightseeing, archery, and sightseeing telescopes, while the lower floor has the Qin Shihuang Wax Museum. There will be places selling small souvenirs and drinks and cold drinks on the way. 🚶🏻【Recommended way to play】 You can walk up and down, but it is not recommended for tourists with children, it will be tiring~ You can take the cable car 🚡 round trip, or you can choose to take the cable car up the mountain and then walk down the mountain. Because we brought children, we chose to take the cable car round trip.

  • Nanjing is so powerful, my friends are asking me about it.

    After waiting for half a year, I finally got the National Day holiday⛱️ After work, I took the high-speed rail to Nanjing🚅 to start my trip to Nanjing After getting off the high-speed rail🚄, the first stop is here 1⃣️Ginkgo Lake I really regret not discovering it earlier, Green water, sandy beach, and large lawn, Nanjing has its own Altay 2⃣️Chaotian Palace Walking under the red tile, yellow brick, and green tile palace walls, I can't tell the difference between ancient and modern times There is a different view in the courtyard, magnolia in spring, and ginkgo in autumn🍂 Each season has its own beauty I also checked in at the Chaotian Palace slide, which is the childhood of many people in Nanjing 3⃣️Fashion Lady You can see Lady at Exit 12 of Xinjiekou Subway Station When I was in school, I almost came to visit every month. At that time, my manicure💅 and clothes were all done here. After a few years, Lady has changed a lot, she is younger and more fashionable There is also an illustration exhibition🎨 at the door Where the light goes-until the light shines into life, come to your sky The warm blue is so healing～ 4⃣️Niushou Mountain A sentence "A Niushou Mountain, half of Jinling's history" It's not a loss to build 4 billion, I was really shocked After climbing to the top of the Buddha Tower, the entire Niushou Mountain is in sight

    XyronixZephyr789.

  • A palace built with an investment of CNY 4 billion - Niushou Mountain in Nanjing is too shocking!

    ✨In autumn, the metasequoia trees by the Hidden Dragon Lake in Niushou Mountain turn deep red, reflecting on the lake like a beautiful oil painting; the pink muhly grass all over the mountain is like a pink sea of flowers, swaying like waves in the breeze, dreamy and romantic. 💖Niushou Mountain not only has charming natural scenery, but also is a tourist attraction integrating history, culture, and religious beliefs. 📍Attraction: Niushou Mountain in Nanjing 🕙Opening hours: 8:30 - 17:30 🚌Transportation: Take Subway Line S1 to Henan University - Focheng West Road, get out from Exit 1, and transfer to Bus G70 to the east gate of the scenic area. 🌈Tour route: Take the scenic area bus from the east gate to the mountain, and go directly to Foding Palace. Don't forget to check in at "Upside Down World" on the hillside. It is located at the entrance of the "Foding Holy Land" gilt four-character, and there is a mirror when you look up. After taking a photo, you can flip it vertically, which is very creative. Then come to the Foding Palace pool, you can use the pool reflection to take photos of the "big durian", as well as the group photos and reflections of people and "Hongjue Temple Pagoda" and "Foding Pagoda". Then stroll in the Foding Palace corridor, take photos of the extension of the corridor and the group photos of people and arches. The interior of Foding Palace is also very spectacular, and wide-angle shooting can better record its beauty. Finally, walk down the mountain to the Hidden Dragon Lake. The green slope by the lake is matched with the blue sky and white clouds. Sitting on the lawn by the lake and dazing, blowing the autumn breeze, is very comfortable. 📷Photo tips: 1. "Upside Down World" is located at the entrance of the "Foding Holy Land" gilt four-character, don't miss the creative photo. 2. The pool in front of Foding Palace is a good place for taking photos, and you can take photos of the "big durian" and the group photos and reflections of people and pagodas. 3. Take photos of the extension of the corridor and the group photos of people and arches, which is very atmospheric. 4. Wide-angle shooting of Foding Palace is more magnificent. 5. The blue sky, white clouds, and green slope of the Hidden Dragon Lake are beautiful no matter how you shoot. Come to Niushou Mountain in Nanjing and start a romantic autumn tour! 💕

  • Autumn in Nanjing: A Practical Guide.

    I. Weather and Travel Preparation Nanjing's autumn weather is changeable. There is a large temperature difference between morning and evening. In the morning, the city is often shrouded in a thin layer of fog, and the air is cool. It is recommended to wear a thicker jacket, such as a lightweight down jacket or a thick sweater. At noon, the sun shines through the clouds, and the temperature rises significantly. Sometimes, it may even feel a bit hot. At this time, you can reduce the amount of clothing you wear. In terms of travel, if you choose to walk, be sure to wear comfortable sneakers, as many of Nanjing's autumn attractions require long walks. Also, carry a dual-purpose umbrella with you in case of sudden rain or to block the sun when it is strong. II. Stunning Autumn Viewing Spots (I) Zhongshan Botanical Garden 1. Unique Autumn Scenery Zhongshan Botanical Garden is like a giant plant kingdom, and autumn is the season when it displays its unique charm. The various plants in the garden change color in autumn. The pines and cypresses in the north garden remain green, while the ginkgo and maple trees put on golden coats. The maple trees in the south garden are like a palette overturned by nature, with leaves in vibrant colors such as orange-red and deep red. The lakes in the botanical garden shimmer under the autumn sky, reflecting the colorful trees on the surface, like a beautiful painting. 2. Visiting Suggestions - Visit between late October and mid-November to see the most abundant autumn colors. - You can first visit the north garden, which has ancient trees and various rare plant species. Stroll along the winding paths, breathe in the air with the fragrance of plants, and feel the tranquility of autumn. Then go to the south garden, which has a more open space, suitable for taking photos in the colorful forest. (II) Confucius Temple and Qinhuai River Scenic Belt (Night Edition) 1. Enchanting Night View When autumn's night falls on the Confucius Temple and Qinhuai River Scenic Belt, it transforms into a dreamlike world. The ancient buildings on both sides of the Qinhuai River are illuminated by lights, exuding an antique charm. The willows along the river sway gently in the autumn wind, their leaves shimmering with a faint yellow light under the lights. Boats shuttle on the river surface, their bows cutting through the calm water, creating ripples. As the boats pass by, you can hear the melodious singing of the boatwomen, telling the ancient stories of Nanjing. 2. Visiting Tips - Choose to visit between 7pm and 9pm, when the lighting effects are optimal and the crowds are smaller. - You can purchase a boat ticket with a guide to learn more about the history and culture of the Qinhuai River.

(III) Qingliangshan Park 1. Autumn Atmosphere Qingliangshan Park is filled with a tranquil atmosphere in autumn. The ginkgo valley on the mountain is a golden ocean, with thousands of ginkgo trees neatly arranged. When the autumn wind blows, the ginkgo leaves flutter like butterflies, and the ground is quickly covered with a thick golden carpet.
