About Nanjing
Purple Mountain rises above this ancient capital where the Ming Dynasty established one of history's most powerful seats of government. The massive Ming City Wall still encircles the center while museums preserve imperial treasures and tragic history. Nanjing represents China's sophisticated classical period before Beijing dominated imperial geography.
