Yihe Mansion|Check in for the Republic of China style

|Check in for the Republic of China style.🏯In 1927, Nanjing became the capital of the National Government, and from this year on, its cityscape began to change significantly. As the political center at that time, it also left many historical marks. ✔️Leaving the Baiziting Historical and Cultural Block, we came to Yihe Mansion on Jiangsu Road. This was a gathering place for the dignitaries of the Republic of China. Now it has been upgraded and activated, and has become a place for the public to relax and entertain. It mainly provides hotels, restaurants, tea drinks and other services. More people regard it as a check-in point for the Republic of China style. ✔️There is a spire church at the intersection, which is the Jiangsu Road Church of Christianity. Because it is out of place with the surrounding buildings, it seems to have become a landmark here. Across the street is a Red Mansion, which is probably a chain in Nanjing, and I have seen it in several places. ✔️Walking into this Red Mansion, outside is a small art and culture space, inside is a restaurant, but it is not connected to Yihe Mansion. I ordered a cup of mocha and took a rest. Leaving the art and culture space, go out and turn left, see tourists taking pictures in the wall, and ask to know that the gate is not far ahead. ✔️Entering Yihe Mansion, I suddenly felt much quieter, and it was indeed a good place to be quiet in the midst of noise. Inside, there are 26 small Western-style buildings, all of which are villas built during the Republic of China. These small Western-style buildings have different styles, all of which are single-family designs. The floor height is basically two or two and a half floors. The roof is covered with red tiles, and the walls are different. There are red bricks and green bricks, as well as cement walls. I guess the paint was painted during subsequent maintenance. In short, under the cover of green trees, each small building looks very unique. ✔️If you observe carefully, you will find that there are nameplates hanging on the walls of the small buildings, which indicate the former owners of this small building. Many of them are often appearing in the history of the Republic of China, such as Xue Yue, Chen Bulei, Huang Renlin and so on. Look carefully, there are electronic locks on the doors, it turns out that some of them have been transformed into hotels. If you can stay here for one night, it will definitely be a good experience. ✔️The Yihe Road Mansion District was the product of the "capital plan" at that time. There are 12 blocks distributed around Yihe Road, which is the so-called "upper class" residence. Now this Yihe Mansion is located in the twelfth district. Walking around inside, I also saw several restaurants, the main theme is also the nostalgic style of the Republic of China. It's a pity that I'm traveling alone, otherwise I must go in and experience it. 📍Address: Jiangsu Road, Gulou District, Nanjing 👍Recommendation: Former residences of famous people in the Republic of China, check in for the Republic of China style, Republic of China style food 💰Cost: Free visit
