Nanjing | You always have to take a trip to Laomendong to see the azalea sea

You don't have to leave Nanjing to immerse yourself in the azalea sea It's so romantic! - I finally understand why azaleas are called 'rhododendrons' 🌸🌸🌸 Large patches of flowers blooming like fire There are many colors of azaleas, fiery red, deep pink, light pink, light purple It's really like a painting, so beautiful that you can't help but take out your camera to capture it! Walking through the breeze... strolling through the sea of flowers... my mood has changed! The bright and unrestrained colors of the flowers complement the old city walls - The flower language of azaleas is also very beautiful, symbolizing passion, tenderness, and hope! If you miss this year's azalea sea, you really have to wait another year 📸 Photo tips: 🌼 Clothing: Azaleas have a high saturation, so it's better to choose solid colors or light colors for clothing, such as white... 🌼 Pose: You can run on the corridors and steps in the sea of flowers, or lower your head to smell the fragrance... 🌼 Tips: Use the flowers as the foreground to shoot, the picture will have a better sense of space! - ▪ Location: Laomendong ▪ Route: Follow the Ming city wall forward, near the Chishiji city gate entrance ▪ Navigation: Nanjing Qinhuai Foreign Language School Primary Department, opposite the school is the sea of flowers ▪ Ticket: Free ▪ Transportation: 600m walk from Exit 2 of Wudingmen Station on Subway Line 3

Dr. Sun Yat-Sen's Mausoleum

Nanjing is a city perfect for a relaxing trip. Upon arrival, we first visited Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum. We ascended the lush stone steps, a bit tiring, but from the summit, we gazed over the entire grounds, a sense of grandeur and majesty. In the afternoon, we visited the Confucius Temple and Qinhuai River Scenic Area, where we took a boat ride to admire the lanterns and experience the ancient charm of the "Ten Miles of Qinhuai." The next day, after lunch, we visited the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum. The stone statue path was magnificent, and a stroll through it felt like traveling back in time. In the evening, we strolled through Laomendong, where small shops lined the streets and a chill atmosphere. On the third day, a visit to Nanjing is a must. I chose to ascend the Ming City Wall at Zhonghuamen Castle to experience the grandeur of the ancient city. In the afternoon, we strolled around Xinjiekou and sampled Nanjing's famous salted duck and duck blood vermicelli soup. In the evening, we strolled through Xuanwu Lake Park, where the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains was truly relaxing. On our final day, we opted for a more relaxed itinerary, spending the morning in a cafe, writing postcards and daydreaming. We had a quick lunch of Nanjing soup dumplings before heading back to the train station for our return trip. Although it was only four days, the city's fusion of ancient and modern times left a deep impression on me.
