The Seat of Kings, China’s Southern Capital: Nanjing
历史之不能令人承受之重。 太多的传统, 太多的帝王, 太多的奇珍异宝, 以及太多的战争。 在秦淮河畔, 蕴藏着无尽的美丽 和心碎。 敢于揭开这个历史宝藏, 它那诱人而沉重的过去 将唤起一阵情感的旋风, 并在你的灵魂上留下难以磨灭的印记。 现在准备迎接永远的改变,因为我现在要说的是: 欢迎来到南京 嗨,我是大川。 跟随我的脚步,一起踏上惊险的冒险之旅, 去探索发现中国的隐藏宝藏, 并在旅途之中 完成随机的旅行挑战。 每次我踏足南京, 六朝古都, 曾经的帝王宝座, 空气中弥漫着迷人的香气, 一股承载着无数历史故事的气息, 一种能够穿越时光的芬芳。 让我们的时间之旅开始吧, 现在是挑战的时刻… 南京是一座以文学闻名于世的城市。 通过记录你和你的观众对南京的见解, 将自己融入南京的文学传统中。 所以我准备了这本日记。 在我南京之旅中, 我将记录我对南京和生活的最深刻和最代表个人的想法、经历和梦想。 我鼓励你也分享你的见解 所以继续观看, 分享你对这座美丽城市的感受, 分享你对这个视频的评论, 就这样, 你的话可以 被铭刻在南京历史的传说中永存于世。 那么我们出发去探索南京, 在一个充满历史和文化的六朝古都的首都城市里, 我们从哪里开始呢? 嗯,从正门开始如何? 漫游者们,睁大你的双眼仔细看看这中国之门, 宏伟的南京入口 和南京城墙, 中国保存最完好的城墙之一, 由3.5亿块城砖堆砌而成。 不仅如此, 南京城墙将是你遇到的最伟大的南京历史和地理教师之一。 首先这座堡垒的布局展示了该地区绵延起伏的壮丽地形, 蜿蜒而行,穿越着城市美丽的山丘、 湖泊和河流。 但南京首先是一个历史古城, 而你在这里可以真正感受到南京的精髓, 它是对美好时光的回忆, 就像这里的宣武湖的景色一样宁静, 这是一个有着1500多年历史的自然避风港。 无论是悠闲地乘船漫游, 还是进行每日早晨锻炼, 或与爱人漫步, 宣武湖都能带给每个人一些乐趣。 然而,如果南京的历史是一首歌, 其中肯定也有一些痛苦和绝望的旋律。 这道城墙本身就是南京在历史上所面临的入侵、 烧毁和破坏的提醒。 然而,真正令人惊叹的是, 如果你仔细观察, 你会发现刻在城墙上的铭文, 讲述着南京过去的重要记忆, 吟唱着优美的中国诗歌, 纪念着曾经在这些城墙上行走的伟大人物。 现在,让我们来解读这些内容记录在日记中。 老实说,我完全不知道这些是什么意思, 但有一句著名的南京格言我牢记在心, 那就是… "地即帝王宅,山为龙虎盘。" 这是中国伟大诗人李白的名言, 指的就是我所站立的这片土地,南京最负盛名的山–紫金山。 一方面,紫金山有 "虎踞龙盘 "之说,是南京城的守护神; 另一方面,紫金山又有 "帝王之居 "之说,是南京城的象征。 李白所说的 "帝王居", 指的是紫金山是南京历史上几位 伟大帝王和重要人物的最后安息之地, 其中包括中国近代之父孙中山先生, 他是推翻清王朝、建立中华民国、 实现国家统一和现代化的关键人物。 紫金山迷人的自然风光、 深厚的象征文化印象以及中国历代统治者、 天子的墓葬, 都意味着这里不仅仅是狂热历史爱好者的旅游胜地。 紫金山是皇权的象征, 也是连接今世与往世的精神之门。 在经历了世外桃源般的徒步旅行后, 让我们再次回到现实, 参观南京最著名的寺庙之一。 夫子庙 这是一个宁静的学问圣地, 儒家信徒可以在这里瞻仰和学习伟大哲学家的教诲, 直到您进入地狱之门。 这就是江南贡院的别名, 又称科举殿。 而在这里,赌注很高。 试想一下,你怀揣着出人头地的梦想, 不远千里从家乡来到大城市, 希望一举通过科举考试,高中状元。 在接下来的九天里, 你将和你的考友一起在狭小紧密房间中度过, 在通往传奇成败的道路上克服重重障碍。 通过考试是一项真正的挑战, 但如果你做到了, 你的人生将因此而改写, 有机会在朝堂之上就此平步青云。 从长远来看, 科举制度对中国作为一个长期帝制国家的稳定具有重要意义。 科举制度根据考生的智力和能力选拔人才, 旨在确保负责国家日常事务的人员具有较高的资质。 在孔庙, 我们窥见了一个逝去的时代, 在这个时代里,志向、挑战和对知识的追求交织在一起, 在王者之都留下了不可磨灭的印记。 夜幕降临, 在南京,唯有漫步在秦淮河畔。 秦淮河对南京来说意义非凡。 几个世纪以来, 这里一直是南京的经济中心, 对南京的发展和繁荣起着举足轻重的作用。 如果想更深入地了解南京, 我强烈推荐叶兆言的《南京人》。 通过令人回味的文字, 叶兆言完美地捕捉到了秦淮河的壮美精髓。 我在这里写下了这样一段话: “秦淮河上,月色之下, 船笛歌声, 沉寂柔和,美不胜收。 轻纱薄绢, 黄梅束发, 两岸佳人, 卷帘依栏, 静静倾听。 于是,灯船鼓声, 两岸卷帘; 龙香烟雾, 月华泛水; 观之,令人心生道家仙境之思…… 这番话语曾激荡过许多来到南京街头漫步、 领略奇景的外地人心灵,徜徉于秦淮河岸。” 如果你觉得那个景象美不胜收, 那你将会有更大的惊喜。 碰巧我们在中国新年前来到南京, 这给了我们参观秦淮灯会的绝佳机会。 以上就是我写的全部内容, 现在,我的南京感悟已经完成一半。 它包含了一些对南京这座城市的精彩见解, 但我认为最重要的是, 它为这个频道的未来提出了一个振奋人心的愿景, 从一开始,这是一个探索中国各地美丽城镇的旅游视频频道。 虽然我仍计划探访并拍摄中国所有最令人惊叹的地方, 但这本身只是表象,是这段旅程的基础。 我想让你想象一下,社交媒体平台有能力把世界带到你的家门口, 点燃你内心的火花, 鼓励你,赋予你活出最好生活的力量。 每段视频都是一剂强大的正能量, 是个人成长和转变的催化剂。 它就像为你的灵魂注入健康和免疫力。 但我无法独自推动这个频道的发展。 我邀请你和我一起踏上这段壮丽的旅程。 首先, 这本感悟需要你的灵感之语。 我会把它留在南京, 我邀请大家都来看看它, 并在空白页加入你们的想法和感悟。 这是一部流传后世的编年史,是南京的又一件历史文物, 也是对非凡未来的预言。我很高兴你们能参与其中。 就这样, 我期待着在下一次伟大的 "中国之旅 "中与大家见面。

Very informative and academicism, lol
Very nice video. Thank you for showing Nanjing city.
Nanjing served as the capital of several Chinese dynasties, including the Ming Dynasty and briefly the Republic of China in the early 20th century. Nanjing boasts a rich cultural heritage with numerous historical sites and landmarks. The city's most famous attraction is the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, the burial site of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty. The imposing Nanjing City Wall, the Presidential Palace, and the Confucius Temple are among other notable landmarks.
But as a Chinese, I have to mention that Nanjing is also a place of sadness for every Chinese. During the Second World War, the civilians of Nanjing suffered mass killings by the Japanese army, with women and children being raped, houses being extensively burned, and cultural relics looted. The innocent civilians who perished numbered over 300,000. Now, in Nanjing, there is a Memorial Hall for the Victims of the Massacre.
If you want to see 3000 years of Chinese history, visit Xi'an.
If you want to see 800 years of Chinese history, visit Beijing.
If you want to see 30 years of Chinese future, visit Shenzhen.
If you want to see a mix of futuristic and old-school China, visit city of Cyberpunk Chongqing.
If you want to see the most spectacular natural scenery, go to Guilin, Guangxi.
Every province in China is different. There are so many interesting places.
Beautiful freedoms great china 🇨🇳 ❤
magnificent
great video, let's make this channel viral 🙂
My great-grandmother left Nanking before the Japanese entered. Although this city is not hometown for me, it still has a different weight in my heart. Wish Nanjing prosperity!
You did really great videos. For everyone who plans to travel to Nanjing, it can be a good preparation.
fantastic narration, if i close my eyes, i would think it comes straight from a documentary, i really enjoyed it
No other civilizations can compare to the amazing Chinese, in depths, profundity and can be overwhelmingly mixed of emotions. Need to spend a lifetime going into research and studying through. Getting to soak all the experience through the vastness and diversity takes a lifetime. Those Western fools, blinded in cultures and virtue will find how admirable and amazing China is. Westerners and European cultures are nice but incomparable to the great Chinese people.
I love Nanjing, a thoroughly modern city steeped in history.
I'm going to China in May for a 10 days vacation and my first stop will be Nanjing!
❤❤❤
your vlog is much more interesting and informative than those professional travel vlogger that didn’t do any preparation before their journey. Your product is respectful to say the least.
Your vlog just came into my feed. Very impressive narration, beautifully filmed, and inspiring. Thank you!

Your ability of speech is really awesome, you are the modern version of Marco Polo.
I also made alot of videos in Nanjing
What is the weather like in Nanjing?
南京“六朝古都”这个称呼是唐朝人给的,那个时候有很多诗词怀念南京这个“六朝古都”,有一种专门的诗词题材叫做“金陵怀古诗”。
事实上南京还陆陆续续做过其他都城,比如明朝、民国等,所以南京又称为“六朝古都、十朝都会”,而常用的“六朝古都”只是延用唐朝人的说法。
