🥹 Experience the awe of traditional Chinese architecture with your kids! Nanjing Niushou Mountain is truly legendary. A 4 billion yuan Buddhist sacred site, with 3 floors above ground and 6 floors underground. Every time the kids go down a level, they say it feels like "time traveling," and the durian-shaped design is super eye-catching. 📷 Perfect for family photos! Avoid the crowds and easily capture amazing shots. —————————————————— 📍Nanjing · Niushou Mountain Cultural Tourism Area 🕑Opening Hours 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM. Arrive early with kids!
