The 39th Qinhuai Lantern Festival, a folk cultural event popular in Nanjing, is also known as the Jinling Lantern Festival or the Confucius Temple Lantern Festival. It is one of the first national intangible cultural heritages and enjoys the reputation of being the "best lantern festival in the world." It is also the only large-scale comprehensive lantern festival in China that integrates lantern exhibitions, lantern fairs, and lantern markets. At the same time, it is also the longest-running, most attended, and largest folk lantern festival in China.

The lantern display at Bailuzhou Park is amazing! I wasn't in Nanjing for the Spring Festival and missed this beautiful lantern display. Even though the holiday is over, I had the chance to come to Nanjing, so I definitely had to see it! The lantern festival is very elaborate, especially the butterfly section, which is stunning! You can also visit the nearby Laomendong area. 📍Bailuzhou Park

Watching lanterns is a traditional Chinese custom for the Lantern Festival. As the crowds are huge on the 15th day of the first lunar month, it's much more relaxing to see the lanterns after the festival. The main exhibition area for the 2025 Nanjing Lantern Festival is Bailuzhou Park. There are also lantern exhibitions in Fuzimiao and Laomendong. The lantern exhibition in Bailuzhou Park is large-scale, with exquisite lanterns showcasing the traditional lantern-making skills of veteran artisans. A highlight of the Laomendong lantern display is a large golden snake lantern erected along the Zhonghuamen city wall. Its dynamic form recreates the image of a golden snake dancing wildly, demonstrating exquisite craftsmanship. It's not easy to depict a snake in lantern form, but this lantern has an approachable feel and attracts many viewers. Every year, the Zhonghuamen Castle lantern display has its own unique charm. This year, I waited until the lights were on before climbing up to Zhonghuamen Castle, only to find a dozen or so small lanterns on the city wall. After inquiring with the staff, I learned that the castle wasn't participating in the lantern exhibition this year. This year's lantern exhibition wasn't as large as in previous years, perhaps due to the current economic climate. Hopefully, it will be even better in the future.

❤️ The lantern festival is themed "Egrets and Snakes, 600 Years of History," featuring 46 colorful lanterns that recreate the lanterns of the Shangyuan Festival 600 years ago. The lanterns are beautiful, and I personally think some of the main lanterns are quite dreamy, but not particularly stunning. 💖 Lantern viewing route in the park Wudingmen Subway Station → South Gate → Yanbo Bridge → Xinyuan Building → Yinyue Bridge → Wanyue Bridge → Huanhua Bridge → Qiubo Bridge → Xiexiu Pavilion → Yuanjia Bridge → South Gate (you can also go around to the North Gate exit, which leads directly to the Confucius Temple) 1 My favorite main lantern this time is "Hongfu Qitian Sui Ping'an," with the sleepy little qilin being too cute. There is a market by the lake where you can buy some food and sit by the lake to enjoy the view while eating. 💚 Tips for visiting: ① Money-saving tip: If you're not in a hurry, you can buy a day ticket to enter the park, wait for about an hour, and the lanterns will light up. You can enjoy both the day and night views. I tried a few snacks on the street in the park, and they were pretty good. ② It's not recommended to bring a stroller to the park during the Spring Festival. ③ Our route was to visit the park and then go to the Confucius Temple. Around 9 pm, the crowd was smaller, and we had Jiming Soup Dumplings without queuing. Then we took the subway from the Confucius Temple Station. ④ Try to prepare a transportation card in advance, as there are long queues for tickets during the Spring Festival. You can apply for a card in the Alipay travel section and use it.

👏 Bailuzhou Park is one of the "Forty Scenic Spots of Jinling." It was the back garden of the Xu family, a family of meritorious officials during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, and is also known as Xu Zhongshan Garden. 👏 The park has a lake island called Bailu Island, which is surrounded by water on all sides. The island is home to Xiexiu Pavilion, which offers a panoramic view of Bailuzhou from the lakeside pavilion. It is also a great spot for taking photos. The island is also mentioned in Li Bai's poem, "Three mountains fall beyond the blue sky, two rivers divide Bailuzhou." Don't miss the bamboo path that leads to the lotus pond (the best time to visit is from June to August, when the lotus leaves and flowers sway in the wind). ‼️ If you have time, don't miss Jiufeng Zen Temple in the northeast corner.

A city without parks is incomplete. 'Three mountains half beyond the green hills outside, two waters divide the White Egret Isle,' this place is unforgettable to the immortal poet Li Bai. It is a quiet corner amidst the hustle and bustle, a picturesque bridge among willows, a boundless expanse of greenery that fills the eyes with beauty. Here, one can travel through time and find the fragrance of flowers; here, one can slow down and catch a glimpse of the distance. Over a hundred years of time have accumulated, layering the stories of generations, condensing everyday life into this space. As time flows, parks are no longer just a pastime for the middle-aged and elderly; strolling in parks has become a new trend. Willow trees and painted bridges exude the gentle temperament of the south of the Yangtze River, winding paths lead to secluded spots, and the eyes are filled with lush greenery. Indeed, this is the White Egret Isle Park, one of the 'Forty Scenic Spots of Jinling'. Only a quiet path separates this place from the White Egret Isle Park, and one would generally not come here without paying attention. Blue bricks, white walls, glazed tiles, and small bridges over flowing water, this is the 'Ten Miles of Qinhuai' with the sound of oars and the shadow of lights. Underneath the Ming city wall, one can stroll here, pause for a rest with friends, and enjoy the oars and lights before their eyes, where a casual snapshot captures the full essence of the Jiangnan atmosphere. Love at first sight, and even more so upon the second. Standing alone here, looking at the rippling blue waves, one's heart can't help but grow still.

🏮"Children, come out to play with the lanterns, we don't need red, we don't need green, we just need a little candle," this nursery rhyme is the memory of many Nanjing children's childhood! The Qinhuai Lantern Festival is no longer limited to the Spring Festival period, and this year it has been extended to May. Why not avoid the peak and the hot daytime, and find a night to enjoy the lanterns?! These three places are a must-visit this year! 1. Bailuzhou Park 🖼Because of Li Bai's poem "The two waters divide Bailuzhou," this place is called Bailuzhou, but what he wrote was about the Yangtze River, which has nothing to do with this place! However, the park's Bailu Island, Jiu Feng Temple, and other relics, as well as the newly built and restored various small bridges, create the charm of the gardens of the south of the Yangtze River. It is also a waterway that connects the Qinhuai inside the Confucius Temple and its painted boats! It has become an important sub-venue of the Qinhuai Lantern Festival during the New Year period in Nanjing! Look, the lanterns are already set up, just waiting for the arrival of the Spring Festival!! With such beautiful scenery, how can you miss photography?! 📍Location: 174 Changle Road, Qinhuai District 🚗Transportation: Direct access from Wudingmen Station on Metro Line 3! 2. Laomendong 🏯The ancient streets and alleys have witnessed the cultural heritage of Nanjing city. Here, it used to be a gathering place for craftsmen to hone and exchange skills. And now, it is one of the main venues of the Nanjing Qinhuai Lantern Festival. Walking into the two rows of lanterns before entering Laomendong, by telling the cultural history of Nanjing, it digs into the folk cultural memory of the old city south and highlights the characteristic charm of the historical and cultural district. 🏮Once upon a time, going to the Confucius Temple to buy a lotus lantern was called celebrating the New Year, and if the conditions were better, pulling a rabbit lantern was even more "showy," and you could show off in front of your friends for a long time. Seesaws, herding goats, and eagles catching chicks were also the childhood fun that we, the post-80s, used to play! Here is the Chinese New Year of old Nanjing. There are also authentic Nanjing snacks and the atmosphere of the streets and alleys of the old city south! 🏘And at night in Laomendong, the lanterns are as bright as day, and the visitors are like a weaving. Along the city wall, the Laomendong exhibition area is all about lanterns! 3. Confucius Temple 📍The Dacheng Hall is in the most central area of the Confucius Temple, directly opposite the Tianxia Wenshu Archway across Gongyuan Street, and the Ju Xing Pavilion (Zhuangyuan Pavilion) on the left is also the most historical building in the Confucius Temple, echoing the Kui Xing Pavilion on the west side. 🏮Every year during the Confucius Temple Lantern Festival, the Dacheng Hall is the main venue with the most lanterns, and this year is no exception. The circular arch in front of the Lingxing Gate, Zhuangyuan, dragon, lotus lanterns, and other traditional elements of the Confucius Temple complement each other. And inside, it's waiting for the "All Lanterns Hold the Moon" on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month! 📍Location: The west gate of Zhanyuan Road, the north gate of Jiankang Road, and the east gate of Pingjiangfu Road are all accessible. 💰Except for the Dacheng Hall and the Imperial Examination Museum, no tickets are required! 🚗Metro Line 3 Confucius Temple Station, Wudingmen Station can be reached! It is recommended not to drive!

"Egrets dance around the isle, green shades envelop the painted bridge. The scenery of Yun Dang is beautiful, the flowers are lovely, and the people are even more charming." The beauty of White Egret Isle is mesmerizing, making one linger and forget to return. Especially during the transition from spring to summer, the Nanjing White Egret Park is bright with spring light and the reflection of lanterns. Strolling by the water, the scenery changes with every step. "White Egret Fragrant Isle" was originally the estate of the descendants of Xu Da, the Prince of Zhongshan during the Ming Dynasty, and with its exquisite natural scenery, it ranks among the 'New Forty Scenic Spots of Jinling'. Tickets | General admission to the scenic area, free before 10:00 AM in spring Address | No.1, Bailu Village, Fuzimiao, Qinhuai District Bus | Subway Line 3 to Wudingmen Station
