- Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s Mausoleum - This mausoleum is a revered site with stunning architecture and historical significance, nestled among lush green mountains. Take time to admire the elegant design and historical artifacts of the mausoleum, and learn about the captivating history of 20th-century China under the leadership of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, known as the “Great Father of the Republic of China.” Enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views from the top.
- Xiaoling Tomb of the Ming Dynasty - Visit the Xiaoling Tomb of the Ming Dynasty, the largest imperial tomb built for the first emperor Zhu Yuan Zhang of the Ming Dynasty and Empress Ma. Enjoy a leisurely walk along the sacred pathway lined with mythical “animals” as guardians, immerse yourself in the beautiful garden scenery from cherry blossoms to lush greens and seasonal foliage, and admire the impressive Ming Dynasty architecture while listening to the fascinating historical commentary from your guide.
- Qinhuai He - As night falls, enjoy a pleasant visit to the Qinhuai riverbank and explore the Confucius Temple market. Additionally, indulge in a relaxing and romantic 1-hour boat cruise along the Qinhuai River, taking in the beautiful scenery while listening to historical stories and anecdotes shared by your guides. During the cruise, you’ll see many antique buildings with white walls and black tiles. The lights from the buildings and the strings of red lanterns under the eaves reflect in the river, creating a scene reminiscent of ancient famous poems.
