The intricately decorated Yuejiang Tower is breathtaking!

👉Yuejiang Tower is located at the peak of Lion Mountain in Gulou District, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, beside the Yangtze River. It was first built in the seventh year of the Hongwu reign of the Ming Dynasty😎. 🌟This place is famous for the 'Record of Yuejiang Tower' written by the early Ming Dynasty writer Song Lian, and is known as the 'First Tower in Jiangnan'👏! 🌇The main tower is 52 meters high, with an exterior of 4 visible floors and 3 hidden floors, making a total of 7 floors. The entire building is intricately decorated with carved beams and painted rafters, and has a glazed tile roof that shines brilliantly under the sunlight. It is simply magnificent🤩! 💡Tip: It is recommended to enter from the south gate and climb the steps directly to Yuejiang Tower. If you have enough time, you can stroll around the back mountain to learn more about the history and exit from the east gate🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️. 🍔Dining: There are not many dining options near Yuejiang Tower, so you might want to bring some food with you🥪🍕. 🚌Transportation: There is a parking lot at the scenic area, but the metro does not reach directly, so you need to transfer to a bus🚌.
