Hey Cherie! I just watched this whole video and will be watching more! I am from the USA but will be studying at Nanjing normal university and this video was so helpful!
Oh I'm glad to hear that and hope you have a great time! There's so much to explore in Nanjing itself but it's also close to other cities like Shanghai so you'll have lots to do when you're not studying :D
Hey Cherie, nice video! Very informative. Just quick question. Where can I find the bus tour stop? Also, I’m bringing my elderly parents and they don’t have WeChat or Alipay. Do you know if I can book museum tickets and pay for their metro as well using my WeChat or Alipay?
The museum you can book for a group of people at once :) however, the virtual metro card through Alipay and Wechat works like a physical card so I’d assume you can only tap on and off for one person at a time. I’ll have a look for the tour information and send it to you but just double checking you are wondering about the Zhongshan Mountain/Purple Mountain area hop on and off busses? ☺️
@@cherie.diaries oh, I didn’t know if the hop on and off bus have specific areas. I thought it may be a daily pass thing that offers unlimited ride so was thinking if I can just find the map to see all the stops.. also, I don’t think I can book as a foreigner as on the official website, seems like I must have a local number (which I don’t) … so I’m like clueless now as how to book, so have to bring my elderly parents and try our luck to register on the spot
@@angelvonne hmmmm I’m going to have a further look into this and get back to you :) for completeness the hop on hop off busses are for a really large scenic area within Nanjing, I’ll see if I can find some information in English for you!
@@cherie.diaries oh thank you so much!! You’re too kind! ❤️❤️ it’s my first time visiting and I am bringing my elderly parents so i really want to make sure I don’t mess things up 🤣
Hi. Nice video. How many days, would you say, is the ideal number of days to stay in Nanjing? Provided you have the time and money. And, what's the name of that hotel?
Good question! I think three days two nights for a first visit would be the sweet spot. In addition to the attractions I visited in the video, you can also check out Jiming Temple, go for a walk on the city wall, spend more time exploring the attractions and views at Purple Mountain (Xuanwu Lake is at the foot of the mountain and some other sights are there which I didn’t visit such as a pagoda). Three days should be enough to cover these attractions at a leisurely pace. The hotel I stayed at: Atour Hotel Confucius Temple 南京夫子庙亚朵酒店 Hope this helps!
@@angelguevara9241 no problem! Nanjing is pretty close to other cities that I think are worth exploring: Shanghai, Hangzhou and Suzhou. Feel free to ask me if you have any other questions!

Great. Thank you. Yes, the plan is to go to Suzhou, then Zhouzhuang ancient town, then Nanjing, and then back to our city.@@cherie.diaries
