Nanjing Night View Ancient Confucius Temple Overnight Tour 🌃

The Qinhuai Scenic Area of ​​Confucius Temple in Nanjing has always been one of the most popular photo spots for local and foreign tourists. It combines ancient city culture, Jiangnan beauty and authentic cuisine, especially at night, the brightly lit Qinhuai River, combined with the nearby bustling food streets, is really unforgettable. The antique architecture and lively atmosphere around the Confucius Temple are definitely the first choice to feel the cultural style of Nanjing. Itinerary recommendation: This time I mainly recommend you to come to the Qinhuai Scenic Belt of the Confucius Temple at night to feel the "Night Qinhuai". You can start by strolling near the Confucius Temple to feel the Hui-style architecture and Nanjing’s historical and cultural atmosphere. Then go to the food street to sweep the streets, which is indeed a gathering place for Jiangnan flavors. The variety of delicacies from pickled vegetables, honey roast duck to small steamed buns and osmanthus cake will ensure you can't stop eating. Afterwards, it is recommended that you experience the "Qinhuai River Painted Boat Cruise" by going to the Fuzi Temple Scenic Area Pedestrian Street, No. 152 Gongyuan Street, Yuchi Cruise Pier. Night river lantern shadows, dotted lanterns reflected on the water, Jiangnan ancient rhyme, very poetic! Sitting on the boat, looking at the lively shore and listening to the explanation of the ancient story of Nanjing, I feel very cultural. Must check-in spots: - Confucius Temple night view: Take a picture at the ancient archway at the entrance, the night lights are on super beautiful - Qinhuai River Bank: Night lights reflection, minutes out of blockbusters - Food Street: Colorful food stalls tips: 1. It is recommended to arrive after six o'clock in the evening, the busiest atmosphere, the most beautiful lights! And the temperature in Nanjing is more comfortable at night. 2. The boat cruise has Chinese and English audio guides, so you don't have to worry about not understanding the story of the monument. 3. There is a lot of people near the food street, remember to watch your belongings and children. 4. It is recommended to wear casual shoes, the scenic spot mainly relies on walking. 5. The Confucius Temple area is open all day throughout the year, but the canal has a time limit, making it more convenient to make an appointment online in advance. summary: A night tour of the Confucius Temple and the Qinhuai River is the best way to experience the elegance of Nanjing's ancient capital and the atmosphere of the Jiangnan water town. Bring your camera or phone in night shooting mode and you're sure to capture beautiful memories.
