Beautiful area , nice to spend a whole day
Beautiful area for an afternoon walk. many trees, gardens and open grassy fields. kids can run and play freely. also many quiet spots to sit and relax, smell the fresh scented air, and take in the scenery
Good for family day out as there are many attractions for kids but if you are looking for a nature walk there are many better places to choose from.
I love Xuawu lake and park. I went there every month when I lived in Nanjing. Wonderful place. It is a free park with gardens and lake. I enjoyed the boat rides with some friends which is totally worth the payment. Loved hearing the crickets in the gardens. Its a lovely place for couples, family, friends...and even singles to sit and meditate.
Nice place to go and take a walk, its really crowded... you can get a boat, carry your own snacks, there’s performaces to watch, kite flying during spring... great place to just go and unplug from the world
