The Confucius Temple hidden by the Qinhuai River in Nanjing comes with a scholar's aura!

The Confucius Temple by the Qinhuai River carries a scholar's aura✨ This thousand-year-old Confucius Temple in Nanjing was first built during the Eastern Jin Dynasty. From the Northern Song Dynasty's layout of temple in front and school behind to the Southern Song Dynasty's addition of the Jiangnan Imperial Examination Hall, it reached the peak of Jiangnan's cultural heritage during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, producing nearly half of the top scholars! Having been reborn through wars, today the ancient charm of the temple market and street scenes is fully preserved～ Stepping into the Confucius Temple, the symmetrical arrangement of Ming and Qing style buildings is truly stunning! The longest screen wall in the country at 110 meters, the Wen Shu Archway symbolizing cultural status, the rustic Lingxing Gate… Inside the Dacheng Hall, the giant portrait of Confucius and the "Sacred Deeds of Confucius" murals are so exquisitely detailed they take your breath away! As one of China's four major Confucius Temples, the Juxing Pavilion in the square in front of the temple echoes with the Kuiguang Pavilion, symbolizing a flourishing literary fortune! The best part is the strong "success in exams" atmosphere here! Red silk ribbons hang full of wishes, incense and prayers intertwine, and even the air is filled with the good luck of "making the honor roll"!🍀 📍Address: North Bank of Qinhuai River, Qinhuai District, Nanjing
