This is a park at your doorstep, and the park is very distinctive. At the foot of Zijin Mountain, it undulates according to the mountains and is scattered. The main body is composed of blue brick courtyards, with Republic of China buildings jumping in between. In the Zhongshan Scenic Area with natural historical style, there is such a T80 with a special tone and a bit mysterious that often attracts me. Sometimes friends choose this place specially for small gatherings, and sometimes they have an hour or two to take photos because the weather is fine. The buildings here, the blue-brick courtyards, the buildings, and the rich flowers and plants in the garden are really photographed. Even the photos taken here by a person with my appearance satisfy me.

I have come here many times, and I also wrote a travel introduction a few years ago. May is also an excellent season in beautiful Nanjing! In May this year, I came here three times in a row. One time was for a small gathering of colleagues at noon. It was a beautiful place where several female companions who loved to take photos met. It was not enough to come to a bookstore and cafe here to take photos for the second time. On a particularly sunny evening, I was here again with the sunset. I felt that the blue brick courtyard in the sun had a sense of leaping agility. I want to introduce this blue brick courtyard again with the pictures from May!

This is the north gate of the courtyard, where cars from the direction of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum enter the park. There are several parking lots in the park. Because it is a niche place, there are very few tourists, most of whom are nearby residents, so there is basically no need to worry about parking.

As soon as you enter, you will find the main line of the park. Tall and straight sycamore trees on both sides block the sky and the sun. On both sides of the sycamore trees are hidden.

There is a brief introduction to the park and a simple guide view on one side. The original site of the park was the branch of the Central Political College established by the Republic of China in 1934. In 1949, it was successively a military academy and the 701st Research Institute; in 1970, it was the 724th Research Institute. In 2014, it was built into an international community of science, technology and culture.

A restaurant called Sweet Honey has a yellow building surrounded by various levels of green.

There is a white building here-Yunjia College. An open-like courtyard, a combination of blue brick walls and dead trees, I like this artistic conception very much.

The setting sun in the west projects the figure of the tree on the wall, forming a beautiful picture.

Here, let the sun shine on your cheeks and feel full of hope in your heart.

On the right hand side, a large area of green stretches to the end is a huge building with a chevron roof and a blue-brick wall.

The entire park is built along the mountains. The terrain in the east is higher than that in the west, and the north is higher than that in the south. This drop also makes the architectural combination of the entire park more diverse and interesting. We went downhill from the road, and one of the slopes here also made use of various blue bricks and tiles, which not only has a decorative effect, but also provides tourists with a rest. It is also a very beautiful mood to sit here and watch the sunset.

Downhill, approaching, this is an upright international art education company. As for what it carries now, I don't care. I just look carefully at the courtyard made of blue bricks.

There is a large courtyard in front of the building. Different spatial areas are divided in the courtyard by wooden platforms a few centimeters higher or gravel floors a few centimeters lower. Several large parasols and several seats create a casual atmosphere.

The buildings and courtyards are built of blue bricks. These are not monotonous blue bricks, they are all works of art, and each wall brick is specially careful.
The bricks in every place are of a different shape and are never the same.

The new green lawn in front of the yard and the green forest behind the yard gave off a dazzling light under the setting sun from the west. Different brick walls are used here as the formal language, interpreting the sense of place based on spatial experience. The courtyard and the outside are connected through the flower walls.

Blue-tile bungalow, tiled combination with large glass windows

Coupled with the few red-leaf shrubs in front of the courtyard, the colors are solemn without losing their aura.

A small plant shows different colors of green due to the action of sunlight.

There are not many tourists here, so children who love to move can play as much as possible, and remote-controlled cars can also be on the road directly like cars.

There are 56 single-family buildings in the park. The building is mainly based on blue bricks and gray tiles, but there are also some yellow two-story buildings scattered among them during the Republic of China.

The noble and elegant yellow is matched with vermilion pillars and light gray tile roofs.

The green creeper on the walls adds vitality to the building where yellow and red meet each other.

Yellow and blue gray collide with each other in the park, and two different and distinctive buildings merge here.

Sometimes a building combines yellow and gray.

The small courtyards are rich in shapes, including quadrangles, round courtyards, and double round courtyards, which is surprising. Walking quietly in these small courtyards and streets and seeing it was very pleasant.

In addition to the enclosed courtyard, the two buildings are surrounded by tall cedar forests to form a natural forest courtyard.

The building is now a fusion of bookstore, cafe, and cathouse.

There are seats for leisure under the cedar forest in front of the house, which is cool even in the hot summer.

The large glass windows allow you to see the warmth in the house.

Inside the house, models of various transportation vehicles are placed in an indomitable decorative cabinet. It seems that the owner is a person who likes car models.

Different types of books are placed in several large bookshelves. Large long tables and bar near the window are also good places to read. Read books and look at the scenery outside the window, be in a daze, and enjoy yourself. The bookcases all over the wall are interspersed with some lively decorations. Have a cup of coffee, grab a book from the bookcase, and have a quiet afternoon tea time.

At the end of the tall fir forest, the warm lights seem like a calling. This north-south yellow building on the west side of the park now houses a cultural and creative store-the Sino-Japanese-Japanese Railway Station.

The scenery around the building is very creative. There is a Phoenix bicycle with 28 bars by the window. I had one at home when I was a child. At that time, I was sitting on the big bar in front of me, and my mother was sitting on the frame behind with her brother in her arms. She relied on this car as a means of transportation for life every day.

Be sure to take a photo with this big bar phoenix.

The Sino-Japanese Small Station also has a large courtyard, with a swing in addition to tables and chairs.

It is another style of building courtyard walls. Various figure paintings and various green plants hanging on the courtyard wall also decorate the hard courtyard wall with tenderness.

Oil paintings can be seen everywhere in the courtyard, and they seem to be slowly and unintentionally.

Look into the house through the large glass window. The warm lights in the house were warm and reassuring.

The small station has a great sense of depth. Through different forms of wooden frames, wooden cabinets build different areas. This is a warm stationery store.

There are exquisite, interesting and creative products here. It's a warm feeling to walk here.

Stationery, reading, gifts and warm drinks...

Passing through this artificially built tunnel of more than ten meters is the east side of the park. Part of the mountain on the east side is interesting due to the scattered terrain and the organic combination of buildings. The shadow formed by the tunnel, coupled with the light and shadow of the setting sun on one side, I like this special photo.

On the east side, a bluish-gray building and courtyards run through the north and south. There are straight alleys here and straight bungalows with blue tiles and blue bricks. Although it is a straight alley, it may suddenly turn at the end. There is another exquisite alley in front of you. The straight, continuous and turning courtyard walls form the streets and alleys, which are well-arranged and unified and harmonious.

Although it is gray, the laying of the walls is not monotonous at all, and the undulating brick walls are like jumping notes. The new green sets off the gray themed building, arches round double doors, and a narrow window opens out on the blue brick wall...

The scattered bungalows are made of tiles of different shapes. The shape of each brick is different, and even the shape of each brick wall and the structure laid are not identical. There are not many people, and we are often alone in the straight alley. No one will interfere whether you walk or just sit like this.

In May, various small flowers decorate these solid and tough skeletons, calm but with a different charm.

Elegance of white

Red enthusiasm

Pink and delicate

The light-sensitive powder is particularly attractive.

There are also various green plant decorations.

There are not only large courtyards, but also small courtyards in the park. No matter how big or small the courtyards are, there will be unexpected worlds waiting for you.

Cute cats can often be seen in the park

There is a Shanyouli Lawn Wedding Company on the top of the mountain on the easternmost side of the park. A modern, bright mountain park is built against the mountains, transparent from north to south, and heaven and earth can be seen from the top. A small gathering of colleagues came here. The white main building forms a perfect match with the dense mountains and forests behind it. There are mountain views that are difficult to see in the city as the main body, which cleverly presents the feeling of being hidden in the city. Wild vegetables, green plants and surrounding Republican buildings wrap the entire space.

This evening, a lawn wedding was being held here. Walking in the east half of the park, you can hear the excited and high-pitched voice of the emcee when presiding over the wedding. It seems that the newlyweds have finally come together after seven years of on-off and on-again love. The boy's confession and confession made him choke up in his voice and was extremely moved. It moved even at my age to hear this story. I have my own habitual thinking when dealing with love. I am moved by his love and worry about his love. In fact, I don't have to worry about this kind of thing. Love is something like this, enjoy it once you have it, and commemorate it when you leave!

Except for the area where lawn weddings can be heard, most areas in the park are quiet. Finally, I heard a cheerful sound in the quiet park, where a small activity area was located.

The main color is blue and gray in the park, and the atmosphere of spring makes it charming and vivid.

Return to the main road guarded by sycamore trees from the east side of the park. From here, you can clearly know the terrain of the park, which is high in the east and low in the west.

A straight Wutong Avenue runs through the park from south to north to the north gate. We entered from the north gate of the main road, walked around on both sides of the main road, and finally returned to the main road. At the south gate of the main road, there is a building with yellow walls and gray blue tiles embraced by tall sycamore trees.

NO 9 coffee house is a coffee shop. These new creative shop owners in the park brought various ideas into these settled buildings. As a result, these time-sensitive buildings will always have vitality.

Look carefully at the yellow wall and see gray blue bricks protruding from the wall. From color to fancy, brick walls seem inadvertent, but in fact they all have ulterior motives.

The warmly colored coffee shop attracts you to sit down and take a nap. In addition to wooden tables and chairs, there are also warm sofas for you to nest in. The simple and retro chandelier is filled with soft slow music. Once you sit down and let the time stop, you can be in a daze or whisper.

The sunshine in the evening in May is just right. The colors on the main road are elegant and beautiful, and the lines are smooth and stretch. There is a yellow house under the tall sycamore tree, a small courtyard, blue bricks and green tiles... On the asphalt road, the walls are full of spots of ancient sycamore trees.

The T80 park at your doorstep is quietly located in the Zhongshan Scenic Area surrounded by mountains and dotted with green water. It is a secret and quiet place of the Republic of China. The blue bricks and flower wall bricks here are definitely a highlight. Floral wall bricks are not rare, but it is still rare for so many types to appear in one place at the same time. Whether it is a villa or a courtyard, decorated wall bricks are used. The decorative wall tiles in a plane have different sizes and arrangements. The construction of blue bricks has similar symbols to the buildings of the Republic of China, which seems to be a memory and continuation of the culture of the Republic of China. The architecture here is like a piece of nostalgic and elegant music lingering in your mind.
