Fangshan Scenic Area

Exploring the Fangshan Scenic Area in Nanjing was like walking into a peaceful painting. Known as the “natural oxygen bar” of the region, Fangshan offered a much-needed escape from city life. Surrounded by lush green forests, rolling mountains, and clear streams, I felt instantly connected to nature. The air was fresh, the atmosphere was serene, and the sounds of birds and flowing water made the experience feel incredibly calming. One of the highlights was hiking up the mountain trails. While some parts were steep, the views at every turn made it worthwhile. Ancient pavilions, natural caves, and cliffside inscriptions gave me a deeper appreciation of the area's cultural and historical significance. Fangshan is not only beautiful but rich in heritage—some of the Buddhist carvings and temple ruins here date back centuries. I was especially moved by the Qixia Temple, nestled quietly in the mountain. With its peaceful courtyards, red walls, and incense drifting in the air, it was a deeply spiritual and grounding experience. Another unforgettable moment was standing at the mountaintop, looking out over the endless sea of green, with Nanjing's skyline faintly visible in the distance. It was a perfect blend of nature and city, history and modernity. Fangshan is a must-visit if you're in Nanjing—whether you're into hiking, photography, spirituality, or just want to breathe clean mountain air and unwind.#fangshan #nanjingtravel #visitchina #scenicchina #naturelovers #hikingchina #explorenanjing #nanjingmountains #chinascenery #fangshanscenicarea #qixiatemple #chinaadventure #chinesenature #culturalchina #mountainview #hiddengemschina #peacefulplaces #naturalbeautychina #travelasia #中国旅行 #南京旅游 #方山风景区 #templehiking #chinahikes #buddhistsiteschina
