Gate of China Tours

Having witnessed many significant moments in local history, Zhonghua Men Gate has a few stories to tell. Stroll around the structure and it just might reveal some interesting facts.

Gate of China is a great place to begin your day of discovery in Qinhuai Qu. This historic structure is recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only spot to see here. Allow time for other sights like Temple of Confucius, Nanjing Presidential Palace, and Xuanwu Lake Park to really experience what's on offer in the area.

5.6/10 (9 reviews)
It was tricky to find the entrance, as other reviewers have mentioned - for reference it is on Lujiali across from the Suwu office building - but the apartments were conveniently located, clean and very comfortable. The staff were also really lovely. There wasn’t a lot of cutlery but the kitchenette worked fine for basic cooking. I recommend as a food place to stay in central Nanjing.
