A worry-free and money-saving travel guide summarized after returning from the Nanjing City Wall Zhonghua Gate Scenic Area

Did you know that the Zhonghua Gate in Nanjing was once the Jubao Gate, where the legend of Shen Wansan’s cornucopia is hidden? Why is this 600-year-old city gate known as "the best urn city in the world"? Zhonghua Gate, the shining pearl of Nanjing's Ming City Wall, was first built in 1386 and rebuilt under the order of Zhu Yuanzhang himself. It was named Jubao Gate because of its proximity to Jubao Mountain, and was later renamed Zhonghua Gate. It is not only a geographical hub of Nanjing, but also a witness to history. Stepping into this city gate, it feels like traveling back to the Ming Dynasty, where the blue bricks and ancient tiles tell of the glory of the past. Although the ticket costs 50 yuan, the one-hour professional explanation will take you to appreciate the mysteries of the city wall - the city is divided into two floors, there are four gates, and 27 soldier caves hiding thousands of troops. Its scale and complex structure are breathtaking, and it is definitely worth the money! Zhonghuamen, a living history museum, is waiting for you to explore its every detail.
