Nanjing City

Q: Are there many people going to Nanjing for Mid-Autumn Festival? When are there relatively fewer people?

There are many people. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the average daily visitor flow at key scenic spots in Nanjing was about 680,000, with the peak from 10:00 to 15:00 on the second day of the holiday, and the evening peak at Confucius Temple lasting until 21:00. The relatively low-crowded periods were before 8:00 on the first day of the holiday and after 16:00 on the third day, with core scenic spots seeing about a 50% drop in visitor flow.

Q: How can Nanjing avoid crowds?

A one-day tour is feasible. It is recommended to arrive at Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum before 7:30, enter the Confucius Temple after 16:00, and transfer to indoor venues like Nanjing Museum during the break. Plan off-peak routes and book tickets in advance to cut queue times at core scenic spots by more than half.

Q: Is it congested to drive to Nanjing during Mid-Autumn Festival? How do you solve parking problems?

On the first day of the holiday, the Nanjing toll station on the Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway is congested for about 3 kilometers from 9:00 to 12:00. It is recommended to switch to high-speed rail. The core scenic lot of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum and Confucius Temple is full during the holiday. You can park in the outer areas and transfer to Metro Line 2 or Line 3. Public parking lots around the scenic area cost ¥30 per trip.
