Climb the Nanjing City Wall and enjoy the scenery of Jinling

The Nanjing City Wall can mainly be entered from the following gates for sightseeing: 1-Shence Gate: Also known as 'Peace Gate', it is one of the thirteen city gates of the Nanjing Ming Dynasty imperial city wall. The existing Shence Gate barbican is the only external barbican of the Nanjing City Wall, with extremely high historical value. 2-Xuanwu Gate: Located on the west side of Xuanwu Lake, the city wall winds southward along the lake. Here, one can admire the beautiful lake and mountain scenery as well as the majestic grandeur of the city wall. This is a classic section! 3-Jiefang Gate: Located near Jiming Temple Road, it offers a distant view of the verdant Longpan reflected in Zhongshan, and a close view of the swaying shadows of the Jiming Temple pagoda. 4-Zhonghua Gate: The southern gate of the Nanjing City Wall, it is one of the thirteen city gates of the Nanjing Ming Dynasty imperial city wall. It is rumored that the Zhonghua Gate barbican was built on the foundation of Shen Wansan's treasure basin, and it has extremely high historical and cultural value. Nanjing City Wall
