- Sun Yatsen Mausoleum (Zhongshan Ling) - Begin your day by meeting the tour guide in the hotel lobby. As this is a private tour, feel free to inform the guide of any specific sites you wish to visit, and they will tailor the itinerary accordingly. The default itinerary includes must-see attractions in Nanjing.

- Zhonghua Gate (Zhonghuamen Castle) - Next, visit Zhonghua Gate, a 14th-century fortress showcasing the military ingenuity of the Ming dynasty. This “impregnable” structure features triple-layered 瓮城 (wèng chéng) defenses and 27 hidden barracks capable of accommodating 3,000 troops. Each brick is marked with craftsmen’s names, serving as a Ming-era quality control system. The guide will explain its transformation from guarding imperial wealth as “聚宝门” (Jubao Gate) to witnessing the 1937 Battle of Nanjing.
- Nanjing Museum (Nanjing Bowuyuan) - Following this, proceed to the Nanjing Museum, recognized as one of China’s three largest national museums, housing over 420,000 collections. Here, you will gain insights into China’s 5,000-year history and its rich historical and cultural heritage.
- Confucius Temple and Qinhuai Scenery - Conclude the trip with a visit to the Confucius Temple, renowned for its stunning night views and surrounded by numerous Chinese goods stores.
