When visiting Nanjing in autumn, don’t just flock to Wutong Avenue! There’s a hidden gem that will make you keep saying “wow” — that’s Niushou Mountain! I rarely use the word “stunning” to describe a place, but the “Buddhist Heavenly Palace” built here with a 4 billion yuan investment truly kept my eyes glued 🤩!
It’s not only the only place in the world where you can see the Buddha’s relics, but the architecture is exquisitely detailed to the core, and every photo you take is a masterpiece ready to blow up your social media 👍~For an autumn trip to Nanjing, I highly recommend spending a day exploring Niushou Mountain + Jinling Town. Here’s a comprehensive guide to lock in! 🌞Daytime at Niushou Mountain: super easy route! Start from the East Gate Visitor Center → Buddha’s Relic Front Yard → Buddha’s Relic Temple → Wuyou Square → Buddha’s Relic Pagoda → finally to the “Big Durian” Buddha’s Relic Palace~If you’re worried about getting tired, just spend 20 yuan to take the sightseeing bus to the top of the mountain, then walk 10 minutes—easy and effortless!
🌌Night check-in at Jinling Town: follow this route for a super comfortable stroll! Taoxi → Wenxin Pavilion → Linqu Alley → Lingxiao Terrace → Lvxiaoyuan, the night scenery is so beautiful you won’t want to leave~
