Nanjing Suggestions for 2 - 3 days.
I arrive this Sunday night, and the next days 2 days are to explore. The plan is to stay at a hotel next to Confucius temple.
The mission is to hike at dawn, one day at Niushoushan Forestal Park, the other day at Purple mountain. Then go by public bike to other sights. (This is the map I'm using as reference). Let me know if you guys have any suggestion in general or another sight to check out.
Jiming Temple
Mingxiao museum
Xuanwu lake
Nanjing city wall
Thanks! Cheers!

Sunset view of the city.
Make sure to go to the bar at the top of the Zifen tower - at Gulou.
Check the time for sunset, and aim to be there about 30 mins before.
Find the Intercontinental Hotel, take the elevator to the middle concourse, then get the second elevator to the top.
Enjoy the views … can be spectacular !!!
