Qinhuai River is the cradle of Nanjing's ancient civilization. As far back as the Stone Age, there were human activities in the basin. The banks of the river, from Dongshuiguan to Xishuiguan, have been a bustling commercial area since the Eastern Wu Dynasty.

The Ming and Qing Dynasties were once again prosperous, with rich merchants gathering, green houses standing in a row, and boats floating on the waves, becoming a place of beauty in the south of the Yangtze River. Qinhuai scenery is the most famous is prevalent in the Ming Dynasty lightships. The boats on the river, no matter how big or small, are all hung with colorful lights, and anyone who visits the Qinhuai River must take the light boat as a fast one.
