I only came here once and was really amazed by Niu Shou Mountain!

It is said that Nanjing spent 4 billion to build Niu Shou Mountain. Don't just check in at the Buddha's Head Palace and leave. It would be more interesting to visit the nearby Jinling town as well. Niu Shou Mountain has beautiful natural scenery, with undulating hills and shady green trees. The Buddha's Crown Palace has a magnificent architecture and gorgeous interior decoration. If you drive by yourself, it is recommended to set the navigation to the west gate of Niu Shou Mountain. It takes about 40 minutes to drive from the city center to the west gate. If you take a taxi, it takes about 40 minutes to get from the city to the west gate of Niu Shou Mountain. The one-way fare is about 40 yuan, and the round-trip fare is about 80 yuan. If you take the bus and then transfer to the subway, take Line 1 to Tianlong Temple Exit 2 and transfer to Bus No. 710, 712 or 755. Take bus No. 710 and get off at Jiujiatang Station, cross the road and walk straight for 10 minutes to reach the west gate of the scenic area; take buses No. 712 and 755 and get off at Niu Shou Mountain Scenic Area Station to reach the east gate of the scenic area. You can first go to the Buddha's Head Palace pool, then go to the Buddha's Head Palace corridor, look at the archway, enter the Buddha's Head Palace, go down to the underground palace, and finally go up to the Buddha's Head Pagoda. Two days and one night can be played like this Day 1: Depart from Nanjing South Railway Station to the small city of Jinling (evening plus night tour, it is beautiful), and find a place to stay at the foot of Niu Shou Mountain. The next day: Enter from the west gate of Niu Shou Mountain Scenic Area, go to Buddha's Head Square, Buddha's Head Palace, then go to Niutou Zen Temple, Zheng He Lake, Baoxiang Lake, and Yinlong Lake. Local people can try the delicious duck blood vermicelli soup, crispy beef pot stickers, and sweet osmanthus candied taro shoots. Pay attention to sun protection and hydration when playing. Please remain quiet and civilized when visiting the interior of the Buddha's Crown Palace. Book your accommodation in advance to avoid being stuck during peak travel times.
