Worth visiting around the fall

This place have an abundance of maple trees so the best time to go is during the fall season to enjoy the autumn colors. We were fortunate that we visited Nanjing the first week of December and still was able to catch the beautiful colors.

Really nice, far from the city.

When coming to Qixia, try to remember that it's a temple on a mountain. If you have any more expectations than this, then you will surely be disappointed. The people there are friendly and if you go on weekdays there typically aren't many people there.
