Take a walk through the vast park centered around Xuanwu lake, sprinkled with small, verdant islands that are linked by bridges. Have a lakeside picnic in the shade of ginkgo and cherry blossom trees, or on one of the scenic islets, home to numerous bird species, flowers, and lotus ponds. Take a boat ride on the lake and enjoy strolling through the rose and peony gardens, bamboo groves, and willow trees of the islets. Work out when and for how long to visit Xuanwu lake and other Nanjing attractions using our handy Nanjing driving holiday app.

Huge lake. There are 5 islets across this lake so plenty to explore and experience. We were there on the last day of the Coffee Festival so that was extra for us. However, it was realllllllly crowded.
