The historic soul of Nanjing—a bustling riverside district where ancient scholarly traditions meet vibrant markets and neon-lit canal cruises.
For centuries, the Qinhuai River has been the “Mother River” of Nanjing, famous for its riverside mansions and literary salons. Centered around the grand Confucius Temple (Fuzimiao), this area was the site of the ancient Imperial Examination halls. Today, it is a sensory-rich district where you can sample local “Jinling” snacks, admire the dragon-carved walls, and take a night cruise to see the historic pavilions illuminated in gold. It is the perfect place to experience Nanjing’s enduring vitality.
