Nanjing has a very high position in history. It has the reputation of the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, and it is also a modern industrial city. There are many ancient and modern historical buildings and relics in Nanjing to meet everyone's ornamental needs. Let's share the tourism strategy of Nanjing in 2118.
Nanjing, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties with a strong historical atmosphere, solemn cemeteries, exquisite buildings, tall and heavy city walls, Qinhuai River with bright night scenes, and place names full of "doors" and "lanes" are all telling the uniqueness of this city.
Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum
A must-see place to travel to Nanjing. Free admission, no tickets required.
I heard the history teacher mention that the steps of Sun Yat-sen's Mausoleum were specially designed. From the bottom up, you can only see the steps, and from the top down, you can only see the platform. This time, I went to the field to verify it. It is really like this, and I feel particularly magical.
The only regret is that the memorial hall only opens the front hall, and there is a statue of white marble. According to insiders, the tomb in the back hall where the coffin was placed was closed as early as six years ago.
ming tomb
is the burial tomb of Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Huanghou, the founding emperors of the Ming Dynasty. It is very close to Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, and you can go directly to sightseeing bus. The ticket is 11 yuan per person for one-way trip.
Different from the solemnity of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, ming tomb's design shows the royal style and strict hierarchy concept everywhere. There are stone statues of animals and ministers on both sides of Shinto, and dragon patterns can be seen everywhere on Shi Zhuan, stone pillars and stone tablets. Only the emperor can walk along the central axis and main gate of Shinto, while others can only walk along the roadside and side doors.
In addition, after Zhu Yuanzhang's death, he was buried alive, and the concubines exchanged their lives for the glory of the family.
At present, the tomb has not been excavated or stolen, so we can only go to the innermost part of the cemetery, and we can see "The Tomb of Ming Taizu in this Mountain" engraved on the stone wall.
It is said that the tomb is a hill with a diameter of about 411 meters, surrounded by hard stone walls, and there are a lot of goose soft stones above it, which effectively prevents the tomb from being robbed.
Nanjing Museum
Except for the special exhibition hall, other museums collect tickets for free with their ID cards, and you can't bring selfie sticks in. The collection is very rich, which is really an eye-opener.
The Republic of China Pavilion, in particular, is designed with originality. It imitates the real streets of the Republic of China and sells goods directly to tourists, including steamed cakes, cream, cakes and souvenirs.
Qinhuai River, the Confucius Temple, is my favorite place in this trip. A series of buildings such as Jiangnan Gongyuan, Confucius Temple, Wuyi Lane (Xie Wang Memorial Hall) and Nanjing Food Stall are distributed on both sides of Qinhuai River.
salted duck, duck blood vermicelli soup, soup dumplings, duck sausage barbecue, pot stickers and other local snacks are all over here.
In addition to delicious food, the night view of Qinhuai River is also a highlight. As night falls, the lights on both sides of the river are bright and prosperous, which seems to be back to the ancient imperial examination period. It is said that there were eight beautiful women who were called "Eight Gorgeous Qinhuai" by the river, and now only Li Xiangjun's boudoir is left.
Laomendong
It's an antique street with few architectural beauties, which is super suitable for taking literary photos. The houses are all restored or rebuilt in the later period and can be sold or rented. Deyun Society is also located here.
The Wengcheng (Zhonghua Gate, also known as Jubaomen)
is the wall of Nanjing, which is tall and big. It was donated by Shen Wansan, the richest man in the Ming Dynasty. It is said that there is a cornucopia buried under the wall.
The small room in the city wall is an exhibition hall and a place to sell souvenirs, focusing on cornucopia culture.
There are some wooden antique weapons exhibitions on the wall. Standing on the wall, you can see the Qinhuai River and Hoonji not far away. There are bicycles and sightseeing bus for rent, which is convenient for tourists to visit.
Yuhuatai
A place worth visiting is of profound educational significance. Revolutionary Martyrs Monument, Memorial Hall, Loyal Soul Pavilion, Yuhua Pavilion and Kanroji are located in this scenic spot. There are many doves flying freely in front of the monument, and there are a bunch of endless flames on the lawn under the monument, which adds hope to the solemn atmosphere.
It is precisely because revolutionary martyrs are not afraid of sacrifice and dare to shed their blood that we have a beautiful life today. This happiness is hard-won, so we should cherish peace even more.
In addition, we also punched in the Presidential Palace, Central Asia Catherine Square, Ming Palace and Jiming Temple.
In addition, Nanjing Metro does not support WeChat, Alipay and UnionPay card payment at present, which is really inconvenient.
