- In a city experiencing rapid development, most of Nanjing's old architecture is being torn down. However, in southern Nanjing-the root of Nanjing-some older buildings remain scattered. Local families knew each other intimately, speak the most authentic Nanjing dialect, have the best street snacks and know the best old Nanjing tales.
Lao Men Dong is the core of southern Nanjing. Like Xintiandi in Shanghai, it is one of the city's most successful urban restoration projects. On the ground floor of former residential buildings, you will find lots of tea houses, local venders, design shops, folk artists, boutique hotels, bars, international restaurants and old former residences of celebrities.
A museum complex locates here as well which is redeveloped from former Nanjing Colorful Fabric Factory. It includes Nanjing Painting and Calligraphy Academy, Jinling Art Museum, and Museum of Southern Nanjing Memory, where you can better understand Nanjing local culture.
Today, Laomendong has become a famous historical and cultural block in Nanjing. It starts from Changle Road in the south, reaches the Ming Dynasty City Wall in the south, and extends to Jiangning Road in the east. This area covers an area of about 700,000 square meters totally.
On the principle of preserving the historical buildings and cultural relics, some old factory houses were transformed into Nanjing painting and calligraphy academy, Jinling art museum, etc. The traditional Chinese wooden buildings and Ma Tau walls were reconstructed in accordance with traditional styles, in order to restore the original appearance of the old town.
Jingling engraving scripture, Nanjing Baiju Opera, Deyun Society, and such folk crafts including hand-made kites, fabric painting, bamboo engraving, cutting paper and marionette are all available to see here. It still maintains the ancient architectural designs and the cobble stone streets.
Also, many traditional delicious snacks of Nanjing can be found here, such as Meihuagao dessert, Ice Douhua, soup bun, Nanjing duck and sour cream.
In the evening, various kinds of lanterns light up the old block, making it a peaceful and harmonious destination.
Nanjing, capital of China’s eastern Jiangsu province, is roughly 300km up the Yangtze River from the city of Shanghai.
It was the national capital during part of the Ming dynasty. Many monuments and landmarks remain, including Zhonghua Gate (Gate of China), a preserved 14th-century section of the massive wall that contained the old city’s southern entrance.
Nanjing means "southern capital" (versus Beijing meaning "northern capital".)
It is a renowned historical and cultural city and was the capital of several dynasties over the course of Chinese history. It has many historical sites including Ming tombs that are on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
With a current urban population of approximately 9 million people, Nanjing is an important centre for commerce and trade in Eastern China.
Nanjing has a humid subtropical climate, influenced by the East Asian Monsoon. It is one of the 3 members of China's Three Furnaces along with Wuhan and Chongqing, both of them known for their hot and muggy summers with Nanjing being no exception.
The average July temperature is 28.1°C (82.6°F). Daily highs usually surpass 32°C (90°F) which along with the the humidity (80%), can make the heat unbearable.
On the other hand, summers are sunnier than winters and all of precipitation (which is a lot due to the summer monsoon) falls as downpours leaving enough time for the sun to come out. 35°C (95°F) or above readings, usually occur sometimes but long hot periods are rare.
Once an imperial examination testing center for the entire Jiangsu region, this museum comprises a tiny fraction of the once-massive original buildings.
The rest of the site is a massive, labyrinthine market; a top tourist attraction and a place where you can get all your haggling out of your system.
Get your picture taken with the Confucius sculpture and grab some tea on one of the gondolas on the canal. On the southern side of town next to Zhonghua Gate and the Taiping Museum.
Qin Huai River, a branch of the great Yangtze River, is 110 kilometres (about 68 miles) in length and covers a drainage area of 2,631 square kilometres (about 1,016 square miles).
The river was originally called Huai River, and it is said that the river was channeled to the city of Nanjing during the reign of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, so it was named Qin Huai River from then on. Qin Huai River is the largest river in the Nanjing City area and is the 'life blood' of the city.

This place was destroyed by the Japanese people and they showed extreme level of cruelty towards these kind, honest and such good people. But now this city has become like a heaven. When I will become big I will definitely come to visit. Just waiting for the moment when I will visit the city. But thanks my friend for showing this beautiful city to me by virtual means. Thanks a lot bro 😊. Keep going. Lots of love from India and it's people to are beloved Chinese brothers and sisters. 🇮🇳❤️🇨🇳

Thanks, my dear friend
That's a sad history for the city..
Good day!
日本人当年几乎摧毁了整个南京，可美国让中国的建筑专家（梁思成）提供核弹轰炸日本城市建议的时候，中国人为了保护日本的古代城市和建筑避开了大阪和东京，核弹最终投下在广岛和长崎。

哇~都说“世界并不缺少美，而是缺少一双发现美的眼睛”，我从你的镜头语言和剪辑中感觉到独具个人特色视角下的南京的美。国内拍摄这类型视频的博主不少，但我觉得相比他们你更擅长去挖掘美，对成片把控也是最好的。另外视频开始配乐是新的吧，我越来越期待你新的作品了！

You did it again! Thank you for another great city experience in beautiful China. I visited in January- February 2020 so I did not see much of this beautiful city, more the countryside from Nanjing to Dengjiapu because the government was in the process of protect its people from the pandemic. I was very impressed with what I seen from the rapid responses to effective communication to the people & compliance of the people. However, I had the privilege & honor to explore Beijing, Changsha & Zhangjiajie in October 2018. I was so overwhelmed with the beauty, history, kindness, technology & safety everywhere I went. The dreams as a 10 year old boy to one day visit beautiful China was finally realized at age 48. Visiting the Forbidden City & Summer Palace took my breath away. I was more moved at that time than at the pyramids in Giza or any other of the 15 countries I had the privilege to experience. Now praying I will have the honor to visit beautiful China again in March 2022 to take our Engagement Tour with my fiancé (Nanjing native) hand in hand to deepen our love & connection with this magnificent country & culture. Again, thank you for sharing your great unnarrated videos with the world. Wishing you joy, health & continuous blessings.
Dear Detrick, thanks for your warmhearted words.
I really hope you would have an amazing trip of China next year.
Best wishes to you and your lover!
Wish you blessing too!🌹

Thanks for your love!
Nanjing means southern capital while Beijing means northern capital.Nanjing was a capital city for six dynasties and ever since the Three Kingdoms it was a capital city for the Wu.
Great information, friend
Which Wu are you talking about ? Is it Wu of Chu or Wu of Han ?
@@sohamdutta2144 Chu Han hegemony was an ear exsisted before Han was established with Han as the winner. Three Kingdoms was an era that Han collapsed and splited into 3 kingdoms as Shu,Wei,Wu,hope this helps.
@@luckyh1217 Yeah this really hepls.
Actually in history , Nanking was the capital of 12 regime political powers.
Recently went to meet a fortune teller with my parents and he asked me do you know why you're so much obsessed with ancient times in China ? And I told him no and he told me in my past life I was there and that's the reason why I'm so much obsessed with Chinese ancient culture. 💓💓💓💓
Love the old towns, it is very charming and peaceful. I have been to Nanjing but missed this one. The Nanjing museum cannot miss. A must-see.
Thanks for your sharing!
I have been to NanJing about 10 years ago. It was a nice city. I guess it must have changed a lot from then. Thanks for bringing me back good memories
My great honor, friend
So much has changed in ten years! Welcome to visit Nanjing again!
I love the lights in China it's so amazing
勾起多年前去南京出差的回憶。
當時住在南京金陵酒店，早餐很棒很豐富，地下街很熱鬧，也有很多漂亮的小姊姊。

Nanjing was my favourite city in China when I visited it in 1985 with my mother. I loved the ancient shopping areas lined by beautiful trees all over the city. The Sun Yat-Sen mausoleum was a beautiful sight set in the mountains honouring modern China's founding father. Back then the main bridge that spanned the Yangtze River was a symbol of Chinese determination. When the Russians left with all the plans, China had to construct the bridge using their own technology. And what a beautiful sight it was. Nanjing also represents a Pheonix that rose from the ashes of the second world war. The massacre of Nanjing by the Japanese will always be a reminder that China has to be strong militarily and never be bullied again. Max, you are so wonderful to show us all these amazing places. I hope that you get to visit the famous war museum even though filming the inside might not be allowed.
Thanks for your kind sharing!
Yes, filming are not allowed in some museum.
Your words are always encouraging!

Hello! The old streets in Nanjing are simply beautiful and atmospheric for walking at night, you can feel the spirit of that time! Thanks for the video walk! On Sakhalin, in the city of Kholmsk, the day before yesterday a ship was thrown aground during a storm! The ship came from China called Xing Yaung our local authorities helped to leave the ship and give them to the hotel now they are safe! I would like to see a walk but Nanjing during the day !!
No problem, dear friend!
@@WalkEast Thank you very much 😊!
Thank you for helping the Chinese ship! Maybe you could come to China with the ship and have some fun 😊
@@firefly4784 I will gladly come to China, but only by plane😊!
thank you for helping stranded Chinese ship and the crew, I was living in sakhalin for about one year. Nice nature. Welcome to visit China. My friend.
Wow 2:11 what an amazing sight of two beautiful women and gentleman in historical dress....stunning!!! Laomendong Historical District is incredible!!! 9:42 that's sad that most of old Nanjing is going to be torn down, I was shocked to read that. I'd love to go to a tea house. I have the pleasure of meeting another beautiful Chinese young woman whom we have become friends, it's wonderful getting first hand explanations of China. She keeps encouraging me to go to China, the array of food is unbelievable and the sights amazing, she said the temp in Gizzy maybe lower compared to China but the heat is much harsher in Gizzy. 11:33 another awesome artist!!! Thanks to the Nanjing Municipal People's Govt for putting english words with the plaques so people like me can read it, very much appreciated. My mind explodes when I read 9 million people. I love all the alley's you were walking down....thank you. 50:16 Qin Huai River looks like a story book setting.....sooooo pretty. 51:18 looks like a love story scene about to happen. 1:03:19 - 1:05:13 BEAUTIFUL!!! I love the singing in the temple scene and the entire area is extraordinary. 1:36:42 the young man has a lovely voice, and plays the guitar beautifully. Thank you for another awesome post take care blessings of good health to you from Aotearoa [NZ]

Well done as usual, thanks for sharing. 城南旧事，国泰民安，心驰神往。曾在南大教书研究数年，再次体验骑行南京古朴街巷的感受。建议对街牌和路线标识有适当定格画面，帮助观众了解具体定位和方向。再接再励精致图强：）。

1:13:58 At the bell ringing she says:
一生平安 (ONE safe life) on the first ring
好事成雙 (May good things come in pairs/TWO)
三陽開泰 (THREE yang {as in yin-yang} begets peace)
So it's a play on words/a special blessing for each time they ring the bell.
Thanks for your great interpretation
Amazing!
Hope you 一生平安，好事成双，三阳开泰~！
What a beautiful city!

Thank you for the enjoyable video. Nanjing is an amazing city. Streets and alley ways are clean, people feel safe walking about at night, even in dimly lighted areas, for the first 1 1/2 hours there were no policemen or security guards on sight. That is one city I really want to visit, especially to see the Dr. Sun Yat Sen Memorial where he is buried and to see the Nanking Massacre Memorial Museum.
