Nanjing Botanical Garden Mem. Sun Yat-sen
The 186 hectare Nanjing Botanical Garden is a fine place to escape the crowds of Nanjing city. Inside the garden are 100s of Bonsai trees, roses, a greenhouse with cacti, succulents and foliage plants, 10 meter tall Magnolia trees and many other types of plants.

Bridge World
Totally unrelated to the theme of the rest of the park, included inside the gardens is a place called 桥世界 (Qiao Shijie) which translates into "Bridge World". It includes a series of obstacle bridges. During weekdays it receives very few visitors, but it is still staffed and well-maintained. There is no additional fee to enter Bridge World, but for an extra 5 yuan you can ride a bamboo raft in the pond.
How to Get There:
Tourist bus #3 (游3) as well as bus numbers 20w and 315w stop at the entrance. Taxis pass by occasionally but are not nearly as plentiful as they are in the city.
User reviews
Great for kids and family.
We`ve been live in Nanjing for almost 5 years, it was so hard at the first year because the language and culture difference, but now, we already adapt to the life here, and we enjoying living in Nanjing special.
Every weekend, i will take my family out to spend sometime with family members, and we came to Nanjing Botanical Garden Mem. Sun Yat-sen last weekend, it was so great, we flew kites, had picnic, kids were having fun, and they seems like to communicated with local people here too, we are so happy to see that.
