很早以前就想来这座充满民国风味的城市来看看了,但是一直都没有机会,去年暑假,终于和我许久未见的小伙伴达成了共识,决定相约南京。在经历了订酒店订火车票计划路线等一系列繁琐的事后,终于!出发了!
在踏上前往南京的动车之前,妈妈为我的旅程准备了一些水果(幸福脸)。将近10小时的车程让我有些疲惫,但更多的是期待与兴奋。👧

Nanjing is an old city in China. I really want to go there but I didn't have the chance until last summer, my friend and I made the decision----meeting in Nanjing. It's a long time since our last meeting.
After reserving the hotel, booking the round-trip train tickets and planning the route, we start our journey.
Before I got on the bullet train to Nanjing, my mother prepared some fruit for me.💓 It took about 10 hours to get there, which made me tired. However, I was excited more than tired.

我们的酒店位于新街口市中心,几乎所有我们想去的景点都在那附近,出门就是地铁站,交通非常方便。
Our hotel is in Xin Jie Kou which is the center of Nanjing and is near all place we will visit. There is a subway station in front of our hotel,so the transportation is very convenient.

高温是南京带给我的第一感受—好!热!空调在哪! 南京的高温让我们差点放弃那些需要暴露在户外的景点。然而坚强的”到此一游“信念再加上湿透的后背证明高温—算什么! 拍照和美食—更重要!
The scorching weather is the first impression that Nanjing gave me. It even made me think about giving up visiting these scenic spots which need us to walk outside without air-conditioner. However, I perished the thought rationally.
My trip can't be wasted. Most importantly, I like to take pictures and enjoy the food.

刚到那天晚上重大发现!总在电视上看到的logo😌

Before that day I just arrived, I only can see this logo from TV...now...😌

正式游玩开始啦!

🎈Nanjing Presidential Palace总统府
南京重要的历史地标,民国的气息!

It's an important historical landmark in Nanjing and full of the style of modern Chinese buildings. It housed the Office of the President of the Republic of China since 1927 until the capital was relocated to Taipei in 1949. It is now a museum called the China Modern History Museum.

🎈Librairie Avant-Garde(Mount Wutai Branch) 先锋书店
一家由地下车库改造的书店(超级棒)。在这里最吸引我的除了它的装修风格之外就是这些特别的‘味道’,每一种味道都有他们自己的含义或者他们相对应的一句话。啊是文艺的气息! 而且里面除了卖书之外,还有卖明信片帽子等。有趣的是,来自世界各地的人们为了证明他们来过这,通常会留下他们旅途的车票和一张写满情话或祝福的明信片。🙈

This bookshop is hidden in a former parking lot underground. It’s unique.
People around the world will leave their train or bus tickets and a postcard which they can write whatever they want to prove that they have been here. It's meaningful for a traveler to leave something in a strange city.

One of the things I'm interested most is these “smell” in the bottle. Each of them has its own meaning.

🎈Confucius Temple and East Zhonghua Gate Historical Culture Block 夫子庙和老门东
这两个地方有些相似,是南京城南市井生活的缩影,有很多买特产纪念品的商店和特色小吃店。夫子庙位于秦淮河的北岸,河与建筑融合在一起,这儿的夜景非常值得一看!

They have many similarities. They show us the life of Nanjing city in the past. There are many shops selling the souvenir, specialty, and special local snack. Confucius Temple is located on the Northern bank of the Qinhuai River so the night scene is wonderful.

🎈The Memorial Hall of the Victims in Nanjing Massacre by Japanese Invaders 南京大屠杀纪念馆
这是一段惨痛的历史,铭记。

I think I have to go there because that is a miserable memory we have to remember.

🎈Nanjing Eye Footbridge👀南京眼步行桥
我们很幸运的赶上了最后一辆电车,体验了一把“火车”跟汽车抢路的感觉!

We caught the last tramcar which made me feel that I was taking the train on the road.

🎈1912 Bar Street🍸1912街区
这一条街几乎都是各式各样的酒吧,轻吧重吧,还有一些咖啡店和餐厅。街区中的建筑都是民国风。

A street has all kinds of bars. And also there are some coffee shops and restaurants. These buildings are modern Chinese style, which is suitable for young people to take artistic photos and enjoy the night.🍸

🎈attention!food!😍美食!
我一直认为出去玩,如果不吃当地的特色美食就是一大遗憾!
I always think it's pity for me to travel to a new city without tasting the local dishes.

南京大牌档里有各种各样的特色菜,主打金陵菜系。一定要去尝尝,很火的店,排了好久的号才吃到!😍

In this restaurant, there are kinds of local dishes which all belong to Jinling cuisine. You must go to this restaurant if you want to try ‘Nanjing food’. 😉

灌汤包! 黑的是鱼肉陷,白的是猪肉馅。一咬下去汤汁就爆出来了,味道刚刚好。

Can I recommend the soup dumping for you? 😉
If you are thinking the soup is inside this sumping and you are right! When you bite, the soup comes out...

当时在上海路吃的美食!

Other delicious food and drink in Shanghai Road in Nanjing.😍

值得一提的是我发现南京有好多大商场(毕竟大城市)很适合买买买...
IMG_3541(20181013-235803).jpg
It's worth mentioning that it's also a great city for shopping because there are many big shopping malls!

短短三天,时间过的很快,在这里还有很多我们想去但却没能够的地方 不过我相信我还会再来的
这次旅行的唯一遗憾就是照片!不够多!(因为自己记忆力实在是太差了,时隔一年早已记不清很多细节)
以至于后来的每一次出游都时刻提醒自己用拍照的方式记录下来
很喜欢这种想到什么就写什么的记录方式
很遗憾没能早一点开始
所以打算利用自己的闲暇时光+有利的环境
顺便多练练自己的英语🙈 欢迎指正!

Three-day trip is too short. I would like to go to​ more places in Nanjing. I believe I will come back there.
It's a pity that I didn't take enough photos. I can't remember many details on​ this trip.( bad memory!)
So all my future travels are full of taking photos to record my every discovery.
I like this way of writing very freely to record something happened to me.
It should have been done earlier.
So now it's time to do it, at the same time, to improve my English! Welcome to correct my poor English.

I hope you can enjoy my sharing!🙈

附上一张上周拍的晚霞! (苹果自带滤镜美爆)

Beautiful pictures I took last week for the ending, here.
