Nanjing Zhongshan Sports Park
Looking for the internet-famous tree? Zhongshan Sports Park is located at the foot of Purple Mountain. The park is very large, so it is recommended to drive there. On a good weather day, you can take photos that give the feeling of being on a grassland. The internet-famous tree stands alone on the highest slope of the park. If you catch the sunset, use your camera to capture the perfect moment of light.
Pukou Railway Station, the station of farewell in the TV drama 'Romance in the Rain', is the best-preserved railway station with Republican-era characteristics in China. Walking through it, you can almost see bank clerks carrying vintage leather briefcases and wearing suits and leather shoes, newspaper boys shouting on the streets, and elegant women walking on the cobblestone roads. The intertwining of time and space is truly fascinating.
Shijiao Film Base
The Shijiao Film Base, where 'The Flowers of War' was filmed, is considered a particularly niche attraction in Nanjing. The famous movie 'The Flowers of War' was shot here. Currently, the church and the Republic of China Street are open for visiting and photography.
Meiling Palace: Republican Era Official Residence
Meiling Palace, a Republican era official residence, is truly one of my favorite historical sites from that period. It served as a leisure and vacation spot for Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling. Despite its long history, it is a fully equipped villa.
Yihe Road Republic of China Mansion Area
As the saying goes, 'Half of the history of the Republic of China is on Yihe Road.' This is the area in Nanjing that most embodies the characteristics of the Republic of China. The buildings from the Republic of China era are nestled under the French plane trees on both sides of the road. Sunlight filters through the plane trees and casts shadows on the pale yellow walls, creating an atmosphere full of the charm of the Republic of China.
The park is very large, and it takes a while to walk through it. There is a row of connected green plants that are particularly suitable for taking photos, giving the feeling of being surrounded by lush vegetation, which is very lovely. Lying on the large lawn and basking in the sunlight also brings a great sense of happiness.
