Nanjing from above

#discoverchina Nanjing, viewed from above, reveals a stunning blend of ancient heritage and modern development. The cityscape stretches along the Yangtze River, with historical landmarks like the Ming City Wall and the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum nestled among gleaming skyscrapers and green parks. The iconic Zifeng Tower pierces the skyline, standing tall among contemporary structures. Aerial views highlight tree-lined boulevards, traditional temples, and bustling urban hubs. The Qinhuai River winds through the heart of the city, its waters reflecting the glow of lanterns at night. From above, Nanjing embodies a harmonious balance between the past and the present, history and progress.
