Antiques

I have never seen so much antiques in my life and they are all not for sale.
I think they are very costly and I am sure I couldnt afford it.

If you need a hiding place from all the sales talk and need to rest your feet escape to the higher levels.

Antique Pavillion

This antique pavillion is found with many other jade antiques.

Most items are on display here and not for sale.

But do stop by to rest your feet and if you need a place to avoid all the sales talk, you know where to hide yourself.

Mochou Lake - The Mochou Rock

T word that was carved on the rock is "Mo4 Chou2".

It is a direct translation for "Dont Worry".

But this place has it name not because its a worry free place.
This place was named aft MoChou a young lady.

Mochou Lake - Beautiful Landscaping

The whole entrance is well decorated with beautiful landscaping and well maintained tress.

You hardly can see any litter in the Mochou Lake.

The air is good and you can see many elderly folks coming to exercise in the park.

Mochou Lake Entrance

This is the entrance to Mochou Lake. The lake was turned into a park in 1952. Behind the threshold, visitors will see rockeries, pools and fountains.

Lying behind is the famous Shengqi Pavilion (Pavilion of Winning I-go). There are paintings and calligraphy works being displayed in the ancient two-story-pavilion.

Boat Ride at Fu Zi Miao Night Market

Take a boat ride at the Fu Zi Miao Night Market.

The boat ride will take you along the river and you can see many buildings all with colourful lights.

Many painters and photographers set up their stall along this river and bridge, so bring back an artistic piece home.

Can u see the dragons on the wall?

This place is colorful lit at night and the dragons on the wall really stands out in golden colour.

Take a boat ride to go closer to the wall and a cruise along the river.

at the river side

Qin Huai River is located southwest of the city and extending 110 kilometers long and is a branch of Yangtze River.The river used to be the most flourishing place of Nanjing since it was the red-light district famous throughout the nation and many love romances spread from here.

Today, the Qin Huai River has been archaized and revived.There are decorated by lanterns hung high and with music played hoping to restored its glory.
