On October 31, UNESCO announced that 66 cities were approved to join the UNESCO Creative Cities Network. Among them, Nanjing was successfully listed and included in the Capital of Literature!


Nanjing has also become the only literary capital selected in China, enjoying world reputation!

Since ancient times,"the wealth of the world originated in the southeast, and Jinling was its meeting." Nanjing was also the capital of the ten dynasties. It has profound cultural connotations and reveals a certain sense of elegance, heroic style, and prosperity.


In Nanjing, life seems to be full of poetry and ancient charm. The owner also took this opportunity to lead everyone to experience Nanjing in the poem.


Qinhuai River


The Qinhuai River is the origin of ancient Nanjing culture, and the 4.2-kilometer-long stretch of the inner Qinhuai River from Dongshuitou to Xishuiguan has been a place where prominent families lived since the Six Dynasties. There are a gathering of merchants and literati, and it is known as the "Six Dynasties Golden Powder".

Standing on the bank of the Qinhuai River at night, I seem to be able to understand firsthand where the prosperity of ancient times came from, and I seem to be able to hear the shouts of vendors at that time.


Confucius Temple


The Confucius Temple is located on the north bank of the Qinhuai River. It is a place where Confucius is worshipped and worshipped. It is China's first national highest academic institution and China's four major Confucian temples. It is the hub of ancient Chinese culture and a place where Jinling's history and humanities gather.

Confucius Temple is a large-scale ancient building complex, mainly composed of three major architectural complexes: Confucius Temple, Xuegong Temple and Gongyuan. It is China's largest traditional ancient market. It is also known as China's Four Big Cities along with Shanghai City God Temple, Suzhou Xuanmiao Temple and Beijing Tianqiao.


Jiming temple


Jiming Temple, also known as Ancient Jiming Temple, was built in the Western Jin Dynasty. It is one of the oldest Buddhist temples in Nanjing. Since ancient times, it has been known as the "First Temple in the Southern Dynasties" and the first temple of the "480 Temples in the Southern Dynasties". It is the Buddhist center of China during the Southern Dynasties.

In March and April, the cherry blossoms on both sides of the avenue in front of Jiming Temple bloom together, so this road is also called Cherry Blossom Avenue.


Wuyi Lane


Generations of heroes walked out of the alley as short as dozens of meters. Ministers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Wang Dao and Xie An, great calligraphers Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi, and poets Xie Lingyun and Xie Yan all came from this. They were the famous "Old Wang Xie".

Hundreds of thousands of years later, the drinking of dignitaries and dignitaries is no longer there, but the sunset is still shining on the alley, and now the Yan 'er has flown to an ordinary people's house.


Xuanwu Lake


Xuanwu Lake was named Sangbo, Houhu and Beihu in ancient times. It is the largest royal garden lake in China. It is also known as the "Three Famous Lakes in Jiangnan" together with Jiaxing South Lake and Hangzhou West Lake, and is known as the "Pearl of Jinling".

Xuanwu Lake is divided into five continents, which are connected by embankments and bridges, and are integrated into one, with mountains and waters everywhere. Ouyang Xiu, a native of the Song Dynasty, once wrote that "Jinling is more beautiful than Houhu." Xuanwu Lake is a landscape garden and a cultural resort. Scholars, poets, politicians and celebrities of all dynasties have left their figures here, and they are all passed down as beautiful stories by future generations.


Qixia mountain


Qixia Mountain, also known as Shashan, is known as the "No. 1 Mingxiu Mountain in Jinling". In the Southern Dynasties, the "Qixia Jingshe" was built on the mountain, hence its name.

This place is known as the "Famous Site of the Six Dynasties". In the Qing Dynasty, it was listed as one of the "Forty-eight Scenery of Jinling". It is known as "a Qixia Mountain, half of the history of Jinling." In history, five kings and fourteen emperors once climbed Qixia Mountain, and there are more than 80 historical monuments and sites.
