What travelers say:
It’s just that there are many tourists. The locals are not very friendly. The Zhongshan Mausoleum Scenic Area does not allow taxis to enter the parking lot. It is far away to walk to the shuttle bus. It is very big inside, it is best to buy a multi-way shuttle bus. Tickets for various attractions can be bought on the spot, and the joint tickets may not be all there.

Zhongshan Mountain National Park towers in the eastern suburbs of Nanjing. It is also known as Purple Mountain. The national park consists of ridges and hills that run from west to east, covering a total area of 31 square kilometers and holding over 200 scenic spots. Three of the important sites nearby include the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, the Tomb of Ming Emperor Hongwu and Linggu (Spirit Valley) Temple. Zhongshan Mountain is a moment of quiet solace for the soul.

Zhongshan Mountain National Park Photos: Trip Moments
It's not Kyoto! It's Nanjing! The breathtakingly beautiful red maplesFor the first time coming to Nanjing to appreciate autumn, I was thoroughly amazed! The autumn in Purple Mountain is truly intoxicating! Promise me! You must come to Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum to see the red maples 🍁, they are currently in full bloom, it's the best viewing period, don't miss it! The sunlight is the best filter, it really looks good no matter how you take the picture! Suddenly, I understood the ancient poem 'Stop the carriage to adore the maple woods at dusk, frosty leaves redder than the flowers of February.' The Chinese aesthetic is really too extraordinary! The red maples and the ancient pavilion are a perfect match, not at all inferior to Kyoto! Nearby, there are also must-visit places like the Stone Statue Road and the Top Stream Redwood Forest! Date｜Taken on 2023•11•24 Location｜Zhongshan Scenic Area • Rouge Snow (free before 6:30🆓) Address｜Enter from the 5th gate of Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, turn right and walk 100 meters forward Subway｜Exit 1 of Muxuyuan Station on Line 2GameZoneUnleashed4
Recommendation for a quiet and less-known spot to enjoy autumn in NanjingThere is a building called Liu Hui Xie in the Purple Mountain of Nanjing, surrounded by water on three sides, and the pavilion is in the water, which locals call it the Water Pavilion. There are too many people on the Mausoleum Road, here you can see the autumn scenery in Nanjing that is comparable to Jiuzhaigou. If you choose to come here during the sunset on a sunny day, the calm lake is like an oil painting, and the colorful leaves are reflected in the lake, which is breathtakingly beautiful. 🚉Travel strategy: The location is near Linggu Temple, and you can walk to Liu Hui Xie in 20 minutes by navigating directly from Linggu Temple ❤Reason for recommendation: No admission fee, and it's incredibly beautiful for photography.IRA SHERMAN19
Peaceful retreat in Nanjing 🙏Zhongshan Mountain Scenic Area is part of a huge nature area to the East of Nanjing City Centre. There are gardens, temples, a mausoleum etc all in the same area so plenty to do for a full day or a couple of half days. Getting there is quick and easy on the metro or you can easily take an ebike along Nanjings beautiful cycle lanes like i did. The area itself is very peaceful and on a sunny spring day it looks and feels amazing.Jacksjollies11

Purple Mountain or Zijin Shan is located on the eastern side of Nanjing in Jiangsu province, China. It is 448.2 m high. Its peaks are often found enveloped in purple and golden clouds at dawn and dusk, hence its name. A great park for nature lovers and long walks. #purplemountain #nanjingtravel #jiangsuprovince #greatview #chinatravel #heaven #greatnatureHEYDARI MOHAMMAD16

day trip in NanjingTowering in the eastern suburb of Nanjing, Purple Mountain (Zhongshan Mountain National Park) has been known as one of the four most famous mountains in Southern China. It got its name because purple clouds can often be seen at the top of the mountain. The mountain is not only very beautiful, but also rich in historical and cultural relics. The mountain covers a total area of 31 square kilometers (12 square miles), with more than two hundred scenic spots, including fifteen key historical and cultural relics under state protection and one world cultural heritage site, the Xiaoling Mausoleum of Ming Dynasty. The Purple Mountain consists of four core scenic areas, including the Dr. Sun Yat-sen's Mausoleum Scenic Area on the southern slope, the Xiaoling Mausoleum of Ming Dynasty Scenic Area to the west of the Dr. Sun Yat-sen's Mausoleum and the Linggu Temple Scenic Area to the east, and the Toutuo Ridge Scenic Area on the mountain top.Jimmysandwiches10

Sunrise on Purple MountainNanjings purple mountain or Zhongshan is in the center of Nanjing and the highest mountain in the area. During summer time, it's a popular weekend activity among young people to climb the mountain at night and enjoy the sunrise in the early morning. 🌄 Depending on the route, you should start at around 3am, because the sunrise is at around 5am in the morning. The most popular and also shortest route is the Northwest route starting at JiangWangMiao (subway line 4). Don't forget to bring a flashlight, especially if you take the "darker" routes starting in the middle of the mountain. 🔦 Enjoy the hike! 🏔️ #createwithtrip #naturewonders #nanjing #purplemountain #natureA_Wanderer21

Linggu Tower in NanjingLinggu Tower is inside the Linggu Temple scenic area in Nanjing. The tower is open and you can climb to the top, from where you have an excellent view on the surrounding forest. It's quite tiring but worth the view. From the main entrance of the scenic area you walk about 1,5km northwards. 🎟️ Entrance to the scenic area is 20-40元. If you reside in Nanjing, I can recommend the year card, which includes almost all scenic spots of the city. #nanjingtravel #jiangsu #lingguA_Wanderer31
Linggu Si or Linggu Tower. This tower is very tall and also located in Zhong Shan Jing Qu Ming Sheng Qu 钟山风景名胜区. It is hard to find and it needs to spend the time to find the right path leading to this tower. But when you climb up, you will be rewarded by incredible and breathtaking view on whole area around. Tower's every level has a window or balcony so pictures could be taken at the different altitude. I was so happy to find this tower.MaxS12
The music stage of Zhong Shan Jing Qu Ming Sheng Qu 钟山风景名胜区. This is Nanjing city, Jiangsu province. This is very good place, perfect option to take a rest after you have roamed the park half of the day. Fountain is providing beautiful view. The music stage is made from stone and looks attractive. Yes, there are a lot of pigeons waiting you share the piece of bread with them. Very romantic place!MaxS8

It’s just that there are many tourists. The locals are not very friendly. The Zhongshan Mausoleum Scenic Area does not allow taxis to enter the parking lot. It is far away to walk to the shuttle bus. It is very big inside, it is best to buy a multi-way shuttle bus. Tickets for various attractions can be bought on the spot, and the joint tickets may not be all there.
＂ Lifetime is a standing Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum. I have the honor to climb the end of your life ＂. Today I visit Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum. PS: Zhongshan Scenic Area is really big, if you want to go all, you must be disabled. 2W + the number of steps is a small case: Ming Xiaoling Palace, Meiling Palace, Music Station, Zhongshan Mausoleum (Linggu Temple can't walk)
I took my parents to see the Ming Xiaoling + Zhongshan Mausoleum. Ming Xiaoling, I feel nothing, just a city gate... Then there is a VR experience that costs money, and I feel that I don't see it. The Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum is very meaningful. I went to see the stone monument and the statue of Mr. Sun Yat-sen. But I didn’t take pictures. I didn’t have a photo as a whole. My physical strength was good. If I took my parents, I would do my best.
Booked joint tickets, but during the Spring Festival, there were crowds, only played Mingxiao Tomb, Zhongshan Mausoleum, music station, Meiling Palace, basically watching the head, then kept walking, tired, and finally Linggu Temple did not go. But the history and culture of the entire Zhongshan Scenic Area is still very good, it is recommended to come in the off-season!
Meiling Palace is really beautiful. Zhongshan Mausoleum and Mingxiao Mausoleum are worth a visit. The nearby parking lot is very expensive. 20 yuan an hour. 😂 The parking fee cost 100. We went to the Zhongshan Mausoleum first-music station-Meiling Palace-Yuan Avenue-Mingxiao Mausoleum Mingxiao Mausoleum from Exit 5 to complete the Mingxiao Mausoleum Zhongshan Mausoleum. The entrance is the music station, and then go to the Meiling Palace. Ming Xiaoling Road will pass through the road.
I can’t play it for two days on holidays. The attractions are very large and the weather is very good. This time I only went to Mingxiao Tomb, Zhongshan Mausoleum, Music Station, Linggu Scenic Area. Meiling Palace has no time to go. I will have the opportunity to make up next time.
When you come to Nanjing, you must check in 👍🏻 The whole scenic spot is worth a visit, and it is worth 30,000 steps, but it is worth it. Recommend 🚞 Buy a scenic sightseeing car, super cost-effective, 30 yuan unlimited up and down, and take pictures all the way without delay. The scenic spot has different beauty all year round. In order to avoid the crowds, the eucalyptus has not been green yet, and the cherry blossoms have not yet opened, but the experience is full. There are plum blossoms and magnolia flowers. There are fewer people in the scenic spot. It is especially suitable for hanging out.
