Wutong Avenue Travel Guide

Here is a travel guide for Nanjing's Wutong Avenue: Transportation Guide • Subway: Take Metro Line 2 to Muxuyuan Station, exit from Exit 1, and walk about 5 minutes to reach the destination. • Bus: Take bus routes 20, 203, or 315 to Weiqiao Station, then walk about 3 minutes. • Driving: Navigate to "Lingyuan Road" or "Wutong Avenue," where nearby parking is available. Best Time to Visit • Seasons: Suitable year-round—spring brings vibrant greenery, summer offers cool shade, autumn features romantic golden leaves, and winter showcases stark, artistic branches. • Time of Day: Early morning or evening for soft light and fewer crowds. Recommended Routes • Classic Route: Muxuyuan Metro Station → Lingyuan Road → Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum → Music Terrace → Linggu Temple. • Leisure Route: Lingyuan Road → Plum Blossom Valley → Qianhu Lake → Pipa Lake. • Photography Route: Lingyuan Road → Meiling Palace → Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum → Liuhui Pavilion. Must-Visit Spots & Photo Locations • Lingyuan Road: Nanjing's iconic wutong tree corridor. Arrive before 7 AM for shots near the small train tracks. At the Music Terrace intersection, admire the heart-shaped wutong archway. • Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum Gate 5 Curve: Capture the deep, straight wutong avenue—a perfect photo spot. • Meiling Palace: From the parking lot overlook, the wutong avenue encircles the palace like a "sapphire necklace." The sightseeing bus stop at the entrance is ideal for Tyndall effect photos. • Linggu Temple Road: A hidden gem with an S-curve offering a deserted road vibe. Stand in the middle for magazine-cover-worthy shots. Photography Tips • Outfit Suggestions: Pair the green backdrop with French floral dresses, light-colored trench coats, or props like transparent umbrellas, woven bags, or retro DV cameras. • Shooting Techniques: Use the wutong trees' depth for layered compositions. Nearby Dining • Nanjing Impressions: Sample local Nanjing snacks. • Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum Teahouse: Perfect for a leisurely afternoon tea. • Around Muxuyuan Metro Station: Various dining options available.
