[2025 Nanjing ] Travel Guide for Qinhuai River Boat Tour (Updated May)

My impression of Nanjing has always been that of an ancient capital through the dynasties. The region known as 'smoke-flowered Jiangnan' attracts a large number of tourists every year after March or April. The so-called 'small bridges over flowing streams' are just too beautiful❤️ Dusk is the best time to take a leisurely stroll or slow photo walk along the Qinhuai River's painted boats. Watching the sky transition from day to night, the brilliant lights shining as if traversing through time, is incredibly dreamy. Looking up, there's a bright moon🌙, and before I know it, I'm at Wuyi Lane, almost blurting out classical Chinese, quite marvelous👍 Nanjing is definitely a great place to visit, but be sure to avoid summer and winter. From personal experience, every visit ends up with either being frozen to tears or dizzy from the heat, a truly magical city!

The Confucius Temple in Nanjing was originally constructed in the year of 1034 in the Song Dynasty. It was a place to worship and consecrate Confucius, the great philosopher and educator of ancient China. It is also known as Fuzimiao in Chinese. This temple suffered repeated damage and has been rebuilt on several occasions since that time. 1937 was the most destruction when it was burnt to ruin by Japanese aggressors. In 1984 the temple was rebuilt under the support of the local government. During the long process, the original building expanded to be a complex building in the architectural style of the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties, including the Confucius Temple itself, the Jiangnan Gongyuan (the place of imperial examinations) and the Xue Gong (the Imperial Academy). The complex is still called the Confucius Temple out of habit by locals and visitors. In front of the Confucius Temple, the Qin Huai River is flowing. On the south bank of the river, there is the longest screen wall in China which is 110-meter-long (about 120 yards) and piled with bricks.

📍 Getting There -  Cruise terminal is inside the Confucius temple area. The nearest metro station is Fuzimiao station (line 3). 🚇 📍 Attractions -  Boating through a river surrounded by ancient buildings. All the buildings and walls lights up at night. The guide will explain the history during the journey.Can see the lanterns reflection in the water. 🚤⛵️ #summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Hard truths: Duck blood vermicelli soup at Fuzimiao costs 38 yuan/bowl, climbing the steps at Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum will leave your legs weak, and those Republican-era style photos at the Presidential Palace rely entirely on filters. Itinerary: - Day 1: Fuzimiao (arrive at 7am to avoid crowds, eat potstickers at Li Ji Halal Restaurant) → Qinhuai River boat ride (choose daytime cruise for 80 yuan/person, night view costs 140 yuan) → Laomendong (try Lu's Plum Blossom Cake for 5 yuan each) - Day 2: Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum (free with reservation, avoid tour groups after 10am) → Music Terrace (10 yuan to feed pigeons) → Meiling Palace (30 yuan to see a Republican-era villa) - Day 3: Nanjing Museum (reserve 3 days in advance, see the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove brick paintings) → Yihe Road (take artistic photos in the Republican-era mansion district) Tips to avoid tourist traps: The main street at Fuzimiao is full of cheap Yiwu merchandise, go through small alleys to find Lao Da's sugar porridge with lotus root; audio guides at the Presidential Palace cost 30 yuan/hour, better to rent a smart guide headset.

"Mist veils the cold water, moonlight blurs the sand, I moor at Qinhuai near a tavern grand." As night falls and the lights begin to shine, the Qinhuai River awakens from its slumber, transforming into the most dazzling painting in Jinling City. Strolling along the riverbank, you'll walk on mottled stone slabs, with ancient buildings featuring flying eaves and bracket arches beside you. Among the carved beams and painted rafters, large red lanterns hang high, illuminating the faces of passers-by and reflecting a thousand years of history. In the distance, a painted boat slowly approaches, its bow cutting through the mirror-like river surface, creating layers of golden waves, as if taking people back to the extravagant Six Dynasties. Boarding the painted boat, with the gentle sound of oars, the beautiful scenery on both sides slowly unfolds like a slideshow. By the Zhuque Bridge, although the prosperous commercial scene of the past is no longer visible, you can still imagine the bustling traffic of the past from the bridge's simple and unadorned structure. At the entrance of Wuyi Lane, the everyday life of ordinary people has long replaced the grand courtyards of the Wang and Xie families, but the sense of historical weight has never faded. On the shore, the melodious singing of the female singers seems to travel through time, interweaving with the modern laughter, playing a movement that blends the ancient and the modern.

#discoverchina Nanjing, China, left a lasting impression with its blend of history and modernity. The grand gate stands as a symbol of the city’s deep heritage. The river at night, illuminated by golden dragons, created a stunning view. Even the Adidas store integrated ancient Chinese elements into its design. Walking through Nanjing felt like a journey through time, with tradition and innovation beautifully intertwined. #nanjing

⛱️Check-in attractions: Confucius Temple Qinhuai Scenic Belt, Jiming Temple, Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum 🌄Travel guide: We started our tour of the Confucius Temple Qinhuai Scenic Belt in the afternoon. We were mainly worried that the Wang Dao Xie An Memorial Hall, located in Wuyi Alley, would be closed if we arrived too late. But it's actually open from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. I guess the night view should be even more beautiful. The ticket is eight yuan, very cheap. "Wild grass and flowers by the Zhuque Bridge, the setting sun slants at the entrance of Wuyi Alley. Swallows from the former Wang and Xie families now fly into ordinary people's homes." Wuyi Alley has a very ancient charm, and my favorites are the Winding Stream and the Wuyi Alley Well. After leaving the memorial hall, we strolled around the Confucius Temple and tasted all kinds of classic snacks. In the evening, the lights of the Qinhuai River Scenic Belt came on one by one, and we could take a boat to experience the night mooring on the Qinhuai River. Because there were many young ladies in Hanfu constantly walking among the tourists, it felt like we had traveled through thousands of years and returned to the ancient city of Jinling. The crowds of tourists, the bright lights, and their reflections in the Qinhuai River created a scene of prosperity. The next day, we visited Jiming Temple. Jiming Temple has a long history and is a popular place of worship. Legend has it that it is a sacred place for severing bad relationships and fostering good ones. So, it was full of couples coming to offer incense. Under the yellow walls and black tiles, the green smoke of incense rose, calming the mind in its ethereal drift. Leaving Jiming Temple, under the ancient city wall of Nanjing, the blossoming peach trees seemed to brighten the history-laden walls. On the third day, we went to Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum to see the wintersweet. In order to avoid the Lunar New Year peak season, we arrived a little late. The wintersweet flowers were past their full bloom. But they were still picturesque. The scattered dots of yellow had a fragmented beauty, and occasionally, a wintersweet tree with slightly more complex blossoms stood out against the red wall, showing its elegance. A faint fragrance lingered in the air. The last photo is of a plant called Edgeworthia. The branches are knotted, which I've never seen before. The small flowers are especially beautiful.

As night falls and the lights begin to shine, the Qinhuai River sheds the hustle and bustle of the day and dons a dreamy attire. The painted boat glides slowly, and the river surface resembles a flowing scroll, narrating the prosperity and culture of a thousand years. The lights reflect on the water, casting mottled shadows, like a smudged ink painting, splendid yet gentle. A gentle breeze caresses the face on the boat, and the melodious sound of silk and bamboo instruments reaches the ears, as if the ancient southern tunes are telling the glory and decline of the Six Dynasties. The green tiles and white walls on both sides, the small bridges and houses, are like poetry and paintings. The red shadows of lanterns adorn the eaves, adding warmth and romance to the night. Occasionally, willow branches dip into the water, like a shy girl lowering her eyes, and the moment they brush past the painted boat, it seems to be frozen in time. The night view of the Qinhuai River is not only a visual feast but also a cultural baptism spanning a thousand years. The slowly flowing river carries the ancient charm and tenderness of Nanjing, blending the past and the present, prosperity and tranquility. Taking a painted boat is like stepping into a flowing poetic dream, making one linger and forget to return.

The Nanjing Qinhuai Lantern Festival is the only large-scale comprehensive lantern festival in China that combines lantern exhibitions, lantern festivals, and lantern markets. It is also the most popular and festive large-scale festival event in Nanjing during the Spring Festival and Lantern Festival. The Qinhuai Lantern Festival attracts many tourists with its profound historical and cultural heritage and unique artistic charm. It is an indispensable cultural event during the Spring Festival in Nanjing.

The Qinhuai River, a waterway that has flowed for thousands of years, carries countless poems and songs, as if it were the cultural artery of Nanjing. Riding on these antique painted boats, gently swaying with the water, it feels like traveling through time to an ancient world full of poetry. As the boat glides on the river, the ancient buildings, lights, and tree shadows on both sides weave into a beautiful picture, enchanting everyone. This river is not only the lifeline of Nanjing but also the source of inspiration for countless literati. From the ancient poet Meng Haoran to modern poets, their verses echo in this water, telling the story of Qinhuai's prosperity and decline. At night, the lights along the shore reflect in the water, creating a picturesque scene with the old bridges, as if the whole city is immersed in this soft light and shadow, making one feel the charm of history and romance intertwined. The Qinhuai River painted boats are not just a water journey but a cultural feast through time. Here, every drop of water and every ripple tells the story of Nanjing's past and future.

Taking a river boat along the Qinhuai river from Fuzimiao is a must do. It is a relaxing ride in Autumn looking at the different spots along the river to understand the culture behind many of ancient Chinese poetry. I would recommend going just before sunset to get a feel of river with some sunlight and in the dark. You will also see many ladies dressed in traditional hanfu taking photos. It felt surreal. . #nanjing ##rivercruise

#Overseas flight event A must-see course for Nanjing travel, the Qinhuai River pleasure boat tour :) ✔️On-site 120 yuan (Trip.com booking recommended) When I visited, the sunset time in Nanjing was 19:09, so I boarded around 19:00 and was able to see it right away without waiting. If you wait in line after dark, the waiting time to board the boat can be very long. I recommend boarding at dusk If you book on Trip.com, you can take the Bujamyo tour as a package!

#OverseasFlightEvent This time, I will introduce you to the Nanjing Jinhui River Boat Ride Tour. ✔️I paid the entrance fee of 120 yuan on site! I paid with Alipay, but since there were 3 people, there was a fee, so it was more expensive. ✔️I recommend booking on Trip.com :) ✔️The boat ride is about 40 minutes, so if you board at sunset before it gets dark, you can see the scenery and the night view on the way back! If you try to board after it gets dark, the wait is really long, so I recommend this method :) ✔️For reference, I boarded at around 19:02 in early June!
