Chaotian Palace

Although the cherry blossoms in Jiming Temple and Nanlin are both beautiful, crowding will inevitably ruin the mood of flower viewing. Lele highly recommends Chaotian Palace Cherry blossoms.

Chaotian Palace is the ancient building complex with the highest level, largest area and most complete preservation in the Jiangnan area. Surrounded by tall red walls and paired with pale pink cherry blossoms, it is a dream of Red Mansions.

At the door, parents take their children to play on the stone slide, which is very childlike. The "slide" of Nanjing people is back again.

Shanyin Road

Li Zhi's song "Summer on Shanyin Road" made this place famous. Maybe you've passed by and eaten snacks here, maybe you've taken a few buses here, but you still don't know its deep twists and turns.

Shanyin Road is not the Nanjing that people say about it - old buildings and small bungalows with brick walls, trees that grow haphazardly, stumbling roads, and scattered stones make this road... Everything looked mottled.

The effect of light and shadow makes the road surface occasionally shine with silver. When the wind blows, the leaves rustle, which adds a literary and artistic atmosphere.

Streets and alleys like Shanyin Road are full of worldly fireworks. The alley is full of roses and wall-creepers, and clothes with cartoon patterns are hung on the hangers. The alley a few hundred meters away actually looks ordinary to ordinary Nanjing residents. There is no eighth floor on Shanyin Road. The name of Shanyin Road is life.
