Yuejiang Tower: A blend of history and family fun

In Nanjing, there is a towering pavilion called Yuejiang Tower, which not only carries a profound historical and cultural heritage, but also becomes a great place for family trips and enlightening children's minds. As you step into the Yuejiang Tower Scenic Area, you will be greeted by an ancient and solemn atmosphere. Walking slowly along the well-maintained stone path, the lush greenery on both sides of the road is scattered in an orderly manner, as if telling the tranquility and harmony of the years. Children are attracted by the quiet scenery as soon as they enter the place, their eyes shining with curiosity and exploration, and their steps unconsciously become brisk. As you approach Yuejiang Tower, its majestic and magnificent figure becomes clearer. The building has vermilion pillars, carved beams, and painted rafters, with flying eaves like swallow tails in the air, showing the exquisite ancient architectural skills. Standing under the building, looking up at this magnificent building, you can't help but be shocked by its momentum, and mutter, "Why is this building so spectacular?" This is the opportunity to open the door to their knowledge. Walking into Yuejiang Tower is like stepping into the long river of history. Exquisite murals and detailed historical materials are displayed in front of you. Following closely, your eyes are attracted by every detail. When appreciating the Ming Dynasty nautical chart, you will be amazed by the vast sea and exquisite ships depicted in it; in front of the ancient people's poems and calligraphy, although ignorant, you will also be infected by the charm between the brush and ink. I took the opportunity to tell my child about the original intention of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang to build this building, and the concept of governing the country and bringing peace to the people contained in the building, so that the child can plant the seeds of cultural inheritance in his heart while appreciating the ancient relics. Climbing up the steps to the top of Yuejiang Tower, looking far away, the Yangtze River is vast and surging, and the boats on the river are busy and orderly. The distant mountains are undulating, contrasting with the prosperous scene of the city, outlining a magnificent picture of mountains and rivers. At this time, our understanding of this vast land is no longer limited to books and maps, but has a more intuitive and profound feeling. I watched the child's smiling face beside me, knowing that this trip to Yuejiang Tower is a knowledge acquisition and spiritual nourishment for the child; for me, it is the warmth of companionship and the warming of family affection. Nanjing Yuejiang Tower is indeed a great place for family trips. In the embrace of history and nature, it makes family time more precious and meaningful. I sincerely hope that more families can gain beautiful memories and growth footprints here.
