Much like Sinan Mansions in Shanghai, Nanjing's Yihe Mansions have been converted into restaurants and hotels in an attempt to maintain their original Republican-era look. The area is covered with greenery and blooming flowers, creating an elegance and a privacy that is a welcome change of pace in this busy city.

📍 Itinerary Overview 1. Nanjing Presidential Palace 2. Librairie Avant-Garde 3. Qinhuai River 4. Nanjing Museum 5. Yihe Road 🚇 Transportation 1. Taxi 2. Metro My recent trip to Nanjing was short but deeply enriching. With just a day to explore, I managed to visit some of the city’s most iconic spots – and each one offered a unique perspective on Nanjing’s identity. 📍 1. Nanjing Presidential Palace A powerful start to the day. The grandeur of the architecture and the weight of history within these walls made this a must-see. From the detailed exhibits to the tranquil gardens, it was easy to imagine the political decisions that once shaped modern China here. 📍 2. Librairie Avant-Garde This underground bookstore was a complete contrast – quiet, contemplative, and full of soul. It’s more than just a place to buy books; it’s a cultural landmark and a creative refuge. The atmosphere was calming and the curated selection of literature (plus coffee!) made it hard to leave. 📍 3. Qinhuai River By the time I reached the river, it was already night time. The lantern-lit boats, reflections dancing on the water, and surrounding historic architecture created a magical experience. 📍 4. Nanjing Museum Modern, well-organized, and filled with treasures from China’s rich past. The permanent exhibitions are vast and informative, while the temporary ones offer something fresh. It’s worth spending a few hours here if you enjoy learning through immersive storytelling. 📍 5. Yihe Road A peaceful end to the day. Walking along this tree-lined boulevard filled with historical villas offered a slower, more intimate view of the city. It was like stepping into a different era. Nanjing beautifully blends the old and the new, the grand and the quiet. This itinerary gave me a taste of its political history, literary spirit, cultural depth, and architectural elegance.

Yihe Road in Nanjing is like a dusty poetry collection. Open it, and you'll find pages full of rich old dreams, guarding its unique tranquility and elegance amidst the bustling city. As you stroll along, the French plane trees on both sides of the road form a canopy, with dappled sunlight filtering through, creating a mottled golden carpet. The street is lined with Republic of China-era mansions, where Western carvings and Chinese flying eaves blend harmoniously on each building. The bricks and stones are engraved with past events, and the deep courtyards are filled with countless stories. Roses climb the walls, blooming in pink and white among the green vines. When the flowers are in full bloom, their sweet fragrance fills the entire street, adding a touch of tenderness to the stories of the past. At the corner, an old mailbox stands, as if still waiting for a late letter; the door of an old house is half-open, as if you might encounter a lady in a cheongsam with an umbrella at any moment.

When the autumn wind blows and the leaves fall, Nanjing's plane tree avenue invites you to a romantic autumn date. I just came back from Nanjing a few days ago, and I'm still immersed in the beauty of the plane trees. 🌳 📍Nanjing Plane Tree Avenue (usually refers to the Yihe Road Mansion District near Yihe Road, where there are many well-preserved plane trees) 🌳 The sunlight ☀️ shines through the plane tree leaves, casting dappled shadows and creating dreamlike scenes. At this moment, I just want to quietly enjoy the scenery that nature has given us. It feels like the whole world has quieted down, and this is a romantic plane tree avenue. The thick plane trees are like old men who have seen the vicissitudes of life. The photos 📷 taken casually are all beautiful. However, there are still cars coming and going here, so if you want to take pictures in the middle of the road, you should pay attention to the traffic. 🌳 🚇Subway: Take Line 1 to Gulou Station, exit from Exit 3, and walk or take a bus to the Yihe Road Mansion District. 🚌Bus: Take Nanjing Bus No. 3, 8, 22, 42, 74, and other lines to Yihe Road Station, and walk to Plane Tree Avenue.

At that time, the time to leave Niu Shou Mountain was limited. It was late to get to the hotel. So I decided to walk around the hotel. I wanted to go to the Drum Tower but I kept going in the wrong direction. Just take a stroll to the Yihe Mansion Stone signs of modern buildings can be seen along the road Attracts my attention I saw the door from a road and walked in directly Walking on the road, the cold feeling makes me feel very comfortable The street scenes along the way are all like autumn withered winter branches Alternating with the ever-growing green leaves Finally, a layer of sky blue base color was applied. Time seems to have stopped at this moment There is no need to say goodbye to the past deliberately, that is the years #NanjingTravel #NanjingAttractions #Leisure

After the rain stops in Nanjing, it's time to walk on Yihe Road Walking on the road covered by the lush French parasol trees on both sides The wind blows and the leaves rustle The cool weather during the plum rain season, which is rare, is really comfortable😌 This road feels different in each of the four seasons No matter if it's sunny, raining🌧️, morning, or evening... strolling around is just too chill

When you come to Nanjing, don't just go to Wutong Avenue. Every corner of Yihe Road is stunning~ Whether it's sunny or rainy, it gives me a sense of tranquility and comfort~ Moreover, there are very few people on weekdays, so any photo you take will look great~ . Of course, I also come here every now and then to stroll around and take pictures~ I hope friends from other places can also slow down when they come to Nanjing, and spend an afternoon experiencing the healing, warmth, and beauty of Nanjing… . 🗺【Citywalk Route for a Day】 Xiqiao ➠ Yihe Road ➠ Shiziqiao Food Street ➠ Xuanwu Lake · ➊ Xiqiao Classic photo spot of Zifeng Tower, with the zebra crossing, traffic lights, and residential buildings on both sides contrasting sharply with the distant Zifeng Tower, making for great photos~ ➋ Yihe Road "One Yihe Road, half of the Republic of China history." I love strolling under the plane trees, feeling the intertwined light and shadows, the gentle sunlight, the romance of the plane trees, and the stories of Nanjing… It feels like walking into a movie~ ➌ Shiziqiao Food Street If you haven't eaten, you can come to this food street to fill your stomach. It's a childhood memory for Nanjing people and a food street they've been eating at since they were young~ If you want to eat Nanjing cuisine, you can go to Shizilou in picture 8, the crab roe lion's head is quite delicious~ ➍ Xuanwu Lake ▪ This year, a new wooden walkway for viewing lotus flowers was built, hidden among the lotus leaves. Walking along it, you can truly experience "wandering into the depths of the lotus flowers"~ Currently, only 30% of the lotus flowers are in bloom, but next week it will be the top spot for photography in Nanjing~ ▪ By the lake, you can watch the sunset and the "orange sea", feel the evening breeze, and take stunning photos while strolling around~

The roses have mostly withered, and the throngs of photographers have dispersed, returning the area to tranquility. It's pleasant to just wander around. In the small streets and alleys near the Drum Tower, the roses are blooming perfectly. Looking east from the West Bridge, you can see the Zifeng Tower. Enjoying a Sichuan meal in an old mountain city house makes for a delightful half-day.
