Check in and take photos at Xuanwu Lake Park in Nanjing, and feel the gentle lakeside atmosphere in autumn.

Coming to Nanjing without visiting Xuanwu Lake is like not coming at all! Especially in autumn, every frame here is as beautiful as a painting, and every snap is a masterpiece 📸 This hidden gem is right in the city center, with direct access from Xuanwumen Station on Metro Line 1, so you don’t have to worry about transportation. Be sure to pick a sunny day; the sunlight on the lake surface is simply stunning! ✨ Xuanwu Lake is really perfect for photography: 1️⃣ Lakeside benches: Sitting here when the autumn leaves are falling, every shot feels cinematic 2️⃣ By the Ming City Wall: Red walls and black tiles paired with golden ginkgo trees create a maximum ancient vibe 3️⃣ Lotus Square: Modern architecture combined with autumn colors, super photogenic 4️⃣ On the floating bridge: With the lake as the background, every photo looks great Little tips: The best shooting time is between 3-5 PM when the light is soft For a panoramic view, head to the observation deck on the 45th floor of the nearby Zifeng Tower The lakeside café is also great for photos and relaxing This place is really suited for a leisurely stroll, so plan to spend 3-4 hours Remember to wear warm-colored clothes to match the autumn scenery better~
