Nanjing | Must-Visit Ancient Jinling Temple for Autumn Viewing

Limited Autumn Ginkgo|Encounter the Most Beautiful Golden Moment at Pilu Temple🍂 Ladies!! This autumn, I discovered a stunning hidden ginkgo viewing spot in Nanjing! Few people, beautiful scenery, and right in the city center—every shot looks like a masterpiece✨ 🌳 Recommended Check-in Spot: 📍 Pilu Temple (No. 4 Hanfu Street) Opening Hours: 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM (Last entry at 4:10 PM) Nanjing’s hidden gem for ginkgo viewing! The temple is small but exquisitely delicate. The golden ginkgo leaves paired with the ancient-style architecture make every frame breathtakingly beautiful. The best time to shoot is early at the 9 AM opening—fewer people and perfect lighting! Definitely the most photogenic ginkgo spot I’ve ever seen📸 💡 Useful Tips: ✅ Bring some coins to the wishing pool for better luck ✅ Wearing Hanfu for photos is definitely the best ancient-style photo shoot of the year ✅ Visit on weekdays to avoid crowds and enjoy more freedom ✅ The temple closes at 4:30 PM, so keep an eye on the time 🏨 Accommodation Recommendation: Home Inn (Nanjing Xinjiekou Daxinggong Metro Station Presidential Palace Branch) Address: 1st Floor, Longtai International Building, No. 198 Zhongshan East Road This location is truly amazing!!! Only a 15-minute walk to Pilu Temple, with Metro Lines 2 and 3 right nearby. The front desk staff are beautiful and kind, proactively helping with luggage and offering free storage! The rooms are so clean and tidy they shine✨ Such a great price for the city center~ 📸 Photo Tips: 1⃣️ White or red clothing pairs perfectly with the ginkgo 2⃣️ Shoot upward to capture ginkgo leaves and eaves in the same frame for a stunning effect 3⃣️ Use props like magazines or fans for a more artistic vibe 4⃣️ Shoot against the morning light to maximize atmosphere
