Relics of Six Dynasties(220-589AD)

These relics were unearthed during the construction works of Nanjing Library. Now it has been preserved under a glass floor. Here you can find the city walls, brick road with wheel marks from old days, street drainage, well, and roof tiles etc.. Personally it’s one of my favorite sites. It’s not that grand or majestic as other tourist attractions, but the perfect harmony of ancient trails and present life feels like a well-blended rich-flavored cocktail. Similarly, the ghetto wall during WII in Warsaw is now part of the current wall of a grade school. Part of an ancient theater in Rome has been integrated in a modern condo. The stone carvings from Six dynasties line up the entrance of a grade school in Nanjing. This combination has its unique charm.
