Whether you'd like to find out more about our place in space, or stare up at stars and planets that fill our night sky, Purple Mountain Observatory will bring out your inner astronomer.
When you've finished up at this out-of-this-world attraction in Xuan Wu, why not make your way to Temple of Confucius, Nanjing Presidential Palace, and Xuanwu Lake Park? They're not very far from Purple Mountain Observatory and also a favorite with many tourists.
