based on 46 reviews"It is recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It is a good-looking whole. Although it is far from the city, it is really recommended. There are food and drink in the scenic area, and it is very convenient to take a bus or take a taxi. Didi is recommended to travel."Nanjing.Jiangning Development Zone15.8km from downtownHighlights: Niushou (meaning "cow’s head") Mountain, also known as Tianque Mountain, is so named because the east and west peaks look like the two horns on the head of a cow. Niushou Mountain boasts spectacular scenery and is popularly known as “Spring Niushou.” It boasts beautiful views of the mist and Buddhist cultural heritage, and also features many historical sites, such as the Base of the Anti-Jin general Yue Fei and Zheng He’s Tomb. Niushou Mountain is a famous Buddhist mountain in China with a profound cultural heritage as the birthplace of Niutou Chan Buddhism.Show Less - 8.14.7/56158 ReviewFree"Confucius Temple is the first highest school in the country. Dacheng Temple is the core scenic spot of Confucius Temple. It is a temple dedicated to and sacrificed to the famous thinker and educator Confucius in ancient China. It is named after Confucius made a contribution to ancient Chinese culture."Nanjing.Confucius Temple/Qinhuai River Scenic Area2.5km from downtownHighlights: The Confucian Temple in the Qinhuai Scenic Zone refers to the zone along the Qinhuai River around the Confucian Temple. The zone includes the streets and lanes on both banks, residences, nearby historic sites, and scenic sites. This site is referred to by a verse in Liu Yuxi’s “Lane of Black-gowned Mansions” that reads “Beneath the eaves of their lordships, oh swallow you used to nest, but now to homes of the commoners you go.” Visiting the Confucian Temple, taking a boat tour of the Qinhuai River, dining, and watching the scenery at night are things you must do when you travel to Nanjing.Show Less

- 7.94.6/513719 ReviewFrom12.21based on 481 reviews"If you only go to Shendao and the Mausoleum, it is recommended to enter Gate 5 and not go back. We took a taxi to Gate 5 on the weekend, but when we arrived at Gate 3, the driver put us down. Gate 3 went to Shixiang Road, which happened to be in the middle of Shixiang Road. In addition, Gate 1 is the junction of the two sections of Shendao. It needs to be turned back to take the two sections of Shendao. We enter the 3rd door and exit the 3rd door. We only go to Shendao and the Mausoleum. It takes time to take the children to walk slowly."Nanjing.The Ming Palace and Nanjing Museum Area4.8km from downtownHighlights: It is located in the eastern outskirts of Nanjing City, south of Zijinshan(Zhongshan) , Dulongfuwanzhu Peak, and the western side of Maoshan. Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum is the tomb of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming dynasty. It took 17 years to be built, and what we see today is only part of the cemetery. The mausoleum was laid out in a majestic manner with strict regulations. The form of the mausoleum continued for the Ming and Qing dynasties and was selected as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2003.Show Less
- 7.84.6/56792 ReviewFreebased on 3 reviews"It’s just that there are many tourists. The locals are not very friendly. The Zhongshan Mausoleum Scenic Area does not allow taxis to enter the parking lot. It is far away to walk to the shuttle bus. It is very big inside, it is best to buy a multi-way shuttle bus. Tickets for various attractions can be bought on the spot, and the joint tickets may not be all there."Nanjing.Zijin Mountain Scenic Area/Sun Yat-sen's Mausoleum Area6.9km from downtownHighlights: Zhongshan Mountain National Park towers in the eastern suburbs of Nanjing. It is also known as Purple Mountain. The national park consists of ridges and hills that run from west to east, covering a total area of 31 square kilometers and holding over 200 scenic spots. Three of the important sites nearby include the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, the Tomb of Ming Emperor Hongwu and Linggu (Spirit Valley) Temple. Zhongshan Mountain is a moment of quiet solace for the soul. To either side of the mountain roads, the lush trees block out the heat of the sun, making a stroll through this mountain paradise cool and comfortable like nowhere else. All of this natural peace is conveniently accessible by public transportation from Nanjing.Show Less
