How could you not visit Qixia Mountain when you come to Nanjing

Address: No. 88, Qixia Street, Qixia District, Nanjing Transportation: Take Metro Line 1 to Jubaoshan Station, then transfer to bus 206 to Qixia Station Take Metro Line 2 to Jingtianlu Station, then transfer to bus 138, 326 to Qixia Station Take Metro Line 3 to Xinzhuang Station, then transfer to bus 206, D21 to Qixia Mountain East Station 💰Ticket: 80r, half price for students and the elderly. Tips to note: You can get three free incense sticks at the entrance of Qixia Temple, and it's a 10-minute walk straight ahead to the ancient temple where you can offer the incense. It's best to bring some bread snacks and water. (There are grilled sausages and drinks at the top of the mountain, but they are quite expensive) 【Easy Route】 On the ground: First visit Mingjing Lake, Mingzhengjun Stele, Qixia Temple, Relic Pagoda, and Qianfoya in that order. Then return to the entrance of Qixia Temple, where there are signs indicating the sightseeing car boarding point, and it is recommended to take it all the way to the top of the mountain. From the top of the mountain, follow the order of the First Emperor's Jiang Viewing Spot, Maple Lake, Red Leaf Valley, and Peach Blossom Lake, and it's not tiring to walk down. A mother with a child around 6 years old has walked this route on foot. Must-see Scenery: Mingjing Lake: The number one scene of Qixia Mountain. There is a pavilion in the middle of the lake, a nine-turn bridge connecting to the shore, and the "Rainbow Mirror" stele by the lake. It's very nice to take a walk by the lake, take photos, and enjoy the lake and mountain scenery. The First Emperor's Jiang Viewing Spot: Located halfway up the mountain, it offers a panoramic view of the Yangtze River's beauty as well as the red leaves. You can stroll, enjoy the view, and taste tea here, feeling the charm of ancient architecture. Red Leaf Valley: A red leaf viewing area integrating mountains, stones, water, forests, and pavilions, characterized by strange rocks and red leaves, naturally beautiful, with red lanterns hanging on both sides of the road, full of ancient charm. Peach Blossom Stream: The seclusion place of Li Xiangjun, a famous courtesan of the Qinhuai River. The area is surrounded by plank bridges, ancient maples, pavilions, lakes, peach groves, Die Lang Rock, Tian Kai Rock, and the Imperial Garden, making it easy to take beautiful photos. Qixia Temple: Mainly features red maples, chicken claw maples, and fragrant maples, and also has 4 ginkgo trees. Biyun Pavilion: At the top of Tiger Mountain, it looks like a peninsula, with cliffs on three sides, connected to the mountain path by only one rock, winning by its precariousness. It is one of the best spots to enjoy the panoramic view of Qixia Mountain.
