    Very worthwhile. Although there wasn't much scenery in winter, it was still fun for the kids. There was even a cat named Huahua near the exit, which my child adored. Being a family, we played hide-and-seek among the artificial hills in Heyuan Garden. Definitely worth the ticket price. Next time, we should bring contact lenses and go take photos in Hanfu (traditional Han clothing).

    Although it was a bit late, I didn't see much of the intricacies of the gardens. I think we should have hired a guide. However, the design of these gardens is indeed ingenious. They must be very beautiful in late autumn and early spring.

    I always like to stay at this hotel when I'm on business trips. The location is super convenient, very close to the train station, and there are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The receptionist was incredibly welcoming; she proactively helped me store my luggage during check-in and even reminded me about the 24-hour convenience store nearby. The room was clean and quiet, the bedding was soft and plush, and there were plenty of power outlets in the work area, so I could work on projects late at night without any problems. It's excellent value for money, and I'll definitely stay here again next time!

    Zhongshan Scenic Area combines nature and culture. The Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum is solemn and ancient, with lifelike stone statues standing silently along the Sacred Way; the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum is magnificent, and climbing to the top offers panoramic views of Nanjing. The Wutong Avenue stretches with lush greenery, and Linggu Temple is serene and tranquil. The misty rain of the Six Dynasties and the turbulent history of the Republic of China intertwine here, making it a must-visit scenic and cultural landscape in Nanjing.

    The bald cypress trees at Gate 3 are beautiful, and the scenery is breathtaking. The stone statue path feels like stepping into a history textbook. The scenic area is the mausoleum of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. The area is very large, so plan your route according to your physical condition and proceed with caution.

    The scenic area is very large, and you can see many animals. The adorable giant pandas are the kids' favorite. It's like climbing a mountain while seeing animals, which is quite a test of physical fitness. Those with good stamina can hike the whole way. If you're traveling with kids, it's recommended to take the shuttle bus to save energy.

    Teacher Zhang Jun, our guide at the Great Bao'en Temple, patiently and meticulously sent us the meeting point and route in advance. The tour consisted of three sessions, but due to the extensive content, it went on for an extra half hour. He didn't even have time for a sip of tea! From the art of the Jetavana sculptures to the history of the Great Bao'en Temple Pagoda, to the excavation of the Buddha's skull relic and the historical and artistic value of the artifacts, he eloquently explained everything, captivating us and leaving us wanting more. This trip to the Great Bao'en Temple was just a beginner's guide; we'll definitely meet again!

    Some interesting attractions were cancelled, as were the nighttime attractions; the park closes at 5 PM, and this wasn't mentioned when purchasing tickets. The rides are just so-so, typical of all theme parks, nothing special. I won't be coming back.

    The escalator makes the ascent painless, which is fantastic. With good weather, every photo opportunity is possible. Although it's a man-made attraction, you can clearly see where the money was spent. I really love these kinds of opulent and photogenic man-made attractions. If you have time, you can slowly hike up and see all the smaller sights.
