Nanjing, I've stayed at this hotel three times already, it's really worth it!

This year, I spent the Lunar New Year in Nanjing. Jinling, Yingtianfu, all these names sound so beautiful, and the city has a long history and rich culture. This year, I took advantage of the Lunar New Year holiday to visit Nanjing and explore the ancient city on foot with a city walk.
🏨Hotel: This time I chose InterContinental Nanjing, first because of the landmark Zifeng Tower, and second because of its location. It's near Gulou and close to many attractions, perfect for a city walk. The hotel is located on the upper floors of the building, and the rooms offer views of the city or Xuanwu Lake. It's a great location for first-time visitors to Nanjing. However, the hotel is a bit old, so if you mind that, don't choose this InterContinental.
🗺️Attractions: Since I stayed near Xuanwu Lake, I went there first. On the way to Xuanwu Lake, you can also visit Jiming Temple and climb the city wall. Then, exit from Jiuhuashan Park and start walking around Xuanwu Lake. There is a Librairie Avant-Garde bookstore on the island in the middle of the lake, where you can buy some cultural and creative products or books. Finally, exit from Xuanwumen. I also visited some other attractions, and here are my personal recommendations:
Xuanwu Lake: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Jiming Temple: 🌟🌟🌟
Ming City Wall: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Librairie Avant-Garde: 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Jiangning Imperial Silk Manufacturing Museum: 🌟🌟🌟
1912 Block: 🌟🌟🌟🌟
