Looking for a 2-day tour plan in Nanjing

I don’t know how you got to Nanjing. Let’s assume you came from Nanjing Railway Station:

On the first day, after arriving in Nanjing, take bus 17 east at the railway station square. Or take bus No. 36 to the Ming Forbidden City and stay near the Ming Forbidden City. There are hotels of various grades there, so you can choose easily. Moreover, the Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty is connected to buses and subways, and is convenient to the train station and airport. After settling in, we mainly visited Zhongshan Scenic Area. Zhongshan, also known as Purple Mountain, is located in the eastern suburbs. It is the highest peak of the Ningzhen Mountains. The mountain is majestic and has the reputation of "Zhongshan Dragon Pan". Zhongshan Scenic Area covers an area of ??31 square kilometers and is the most famous tourist attraction in Nanjing. The whole area is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with shining cities and forests, dotted with towers and pavilions, and diverse gardens. It is a must-visit place for Chinese and foreign tourists coming to Ningxia.

You walk to Zhongshan East Road and take bus No. 1 or No. 9 to the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum. The Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum is free. We will have a light meal at Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum at noon, and then take bus No. 1 and get off at Xuanwu Lake Station. Xuanwu Lake is free. After entering Xuanwu Lake, play Huanzhou, Yingzhou, Liangzhou, Lingzhou in order, and finally exit through Jiefangmen. Visit Taicheng on the Jiefang Gate (ticket 10 yuan), and Jiming Temple down the slope (ticket 7 yuan). Then take bus No. 304 and get off at Daxinggong North Station. Cross the road and take bus No. 80 to get off at Houzaimen. Walk 200 meters south to the Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty. The Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty is free and open at night, so you can visit it anytime you want. Across the road is Wuchaomen Park, which is also free.

The next day, I walked to Zhongshan East Road and took the No. 2 bus to the south gate of Yuhuatai, which is at the end. Yuhuatai is free. After entering Yuhuatai, tour from south to north. Exit from Yuhua Taipei Gate.

After that, take bus No. 2 from Yuhua Taipei Gate to the Confucius Temple. Most of the attractions in Confucius Temple are free. Some attractions require money, but they are not expensive.
