Autumn in Nanjing has come to an end, the leaves of ginkgo and plane trees are falling, and winter is quietly approaching. In addition to looking forward to the snowflakes flying all over the sky, are you also looking forward to the heartwarming fragrance of wintersweet?
The wintersweet flowering period in Nanjing is from the end of December to the beginning of February. I have already prepared the most comprehensive guide for you to enjoy wintersweet! Only after seeing the wintersweet in these 6 places can you truly experience the winter in Nanjing.
Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum: Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum should be the place with the most wintersweet flowers in Nanjing city. The wintersweet is mainly concentrated inside and outside the Xiaoling Wenwu Fangmen. When the flowers are in full bloom, the fragrance is intoxicating. The red palace wall and the yellow wintersweet, if you encounter a heavy snow, it's really stunning!

There are many people traveling on holidays, the scenic spot is very large, walking is not easy, wearing a pair of light shoes is very important, Shixiang Road is very feeling. Because there are many people, we did not enter the core area, but we accidentally got a clean. If there are fewer people on non-holidays, the experience of traveling should be good.
There are a lot of people traveling on holidays, the whole scenic spot is very large, it is not easy to walk, and it is very polite to ask the volunteers for directions. Because I was in a hurry to go to the main road, I didn't enter the main road, but the reverse direction was also crowded. The festival unexpectedly got a point of quietness. If you come slowly on non-holidays, it should be good to see slowly.
Super worth a visit to the attractions, the heavy sense of history, the sense of secluded atmosphere, strolling in it seems to have passed the history, it is immersive, and it also makes up a lot of irrelevant historical knowledge.

The scenic spot is very big. It is really big. I bought a pass for a day and I have no chance to run. There are also many places worth seeing. Of course, there are a lot of people. There are people everywhere. The worst experience is that the Meiling Palace is queued up to die. It is also crowded and time-consuming.
The Ming Xiaoling Tomb is a joint burial tomb of Emperor Zhu Yuanxuan and his Queen Ma's, located in the southern foot of Nanjing Zijin Mountain. The Ming Xiaoling Tomb was built in Hongwu for 15 years, and Yongle was completed in three years, and lasted for 25 years.
The Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum that everyone knows may be historical and humanistic. I want to say that the natural scenery of Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum is also beautiful. Every season has the beauty of every season, and every time there are new discoveries.
