The Lower Qinhuai River

The Qinhuai River runs around and through many parts of Nanjing, including Fuzi Miao. However, in the west it seperates the older parts of Nanjing from the newer areas known as Hexii. It is in this area that there are many parks which line the side of the river, in some parts with paths which run all the way down to the river bank. This stretch of river is ideal for walking or jogging, and it also runs very close to other parks such as Gulin Park in the north and Qingliang Shan and Shitoucheng in the south.
