Visit Xuanwu Lake and explore the ancient city wall of Nanjing. The first spot to visit when coming to Nanjing is the ancient city wall from the Ming dynasty. Right below the city wall is Xuanwu Lake, one of the three famous lakes in the south of the Yangtze River. Historically, the area around the ancient Xuanwu Lake was the most suitable living space in Nanjing. Xuanwu Lake is a shallow lake, a remnant of the ancient Qinhuai River channel of the Yangtze River, and is the 'heart' of Nanjing's urban water system. The Nanjing city wall is the largest brick city wall in the history of Chinese city walls and is one of the longest, largest, and most authentic brick and stone structure city walls in the world. Walking here, you can feel the footsteps of history.
