Autumn in Nanjing is truly perfect for city walks! This time I stayed at the "Journey Yu She" homestay in Xinjiekou, which maximizes comfort and is a little happiness in the heart of NanjingđŻ
⨠Location King:
⢠2-minute walk to Shanghai Road Metro Station (Lines 1 and 2 interchange)
⢠A blessing for drivers! There is a 24-hour parking lot downstairs, parking fees are half the price of hotels
⢠10 minutes by shared bike to the Presidential Palace/Confucius Temple, 3 metro stops direct to Xuanwu Lake
đ Sleep Until You Wake Up Package:
⢠Double-layer soundproof glass + zero-pressure mattress, outside the window is the plane tree street view but you canât hear any traffic noise
⢠Memory pillow is super friendly to the cervical spine, even a person prone to stiff neck slept three nights without changing position
⢠Projector includes the documentary "Nanjing Biography," perfect for catching up on history before bed
â Self-service Public Area:
⢠Freshly ground coffee machine + eight kinds of tea bags to choose from (highly recommend jasmine pear tea!)
⢠Surprisingly convenient microwave for heating late-night snacks, buy salted duck from the nearby supermarket and heat it directly
⢠Washer-dryer combo perfect for long stays, garment steamer saves my wrinkled shirts
đď¸ Thoughtful Extras:
⢠Butler helps receive packages at 2 a.m.
⢠Three USB charging ports by the bed! Electronic device lovers rejoice
đś Nearby Food and Shopping Guide:
⢠Shanghai Road: Vanguard Bookstore (5 minutes), 3 coffee (filming location of Miss Zhaoâs shop)
⢠Taogu New Village: cluster of vintage shops, internet-famous Zhu Ji Plum Blossom Cake within walking distance
⢠Late-night Canteen: Duck blood vermicelli soup at "Qiangye Restaurant" opposite the homestay is absolutely amazing
đĄ Nanjing Accommodation Tips:
1. For Xinjiekou area, choose hotels within 500 meters of the metro station; taking a taxi can cause traffic jams
