Radisson Collection Resort Nanjing

Nanjing is the capital of Jiangsu, East China. The city, which is located in the southwestern corner of the province, has 11 districts, an administrative area of 6,600 square kilometres (2,500 sq mi), and as of 2021 a population of 9,423,400. Situated in the Yangtze River Delta, Nanjing has a prominent place in Chinese history and culture, having served as the capital of various Chinese dynasties, kingdoms and republican governments dating from the 3rd century to 1949, and has thus long been a major center of culture, education, research, politics, economy, transport networks and tourism, being home to one of the world's largest inland ports. The city is also one of the fifteen sub-provincial cities in the People's Republic of China's administrative structure, enjoying jurisdictional and economic autonomy only slightly less than that of a province. It has also been awarded the title of 2008 Habitat Scroll of Honor of China, Special UN Habitat Scroll of Honor Award and National Civilized City. Nanjing is also considered a Beta city classification, together with Chongqing, Hangzhou and Tianjin by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network, and ranked as one of the world's top 100 cities in the Global Financial Centres Index.

Nanjing has been the capital of several Chinese dynasties, and its rich history is evident in the many ancient landmarks and historic sites scattered throughout the city. One must-see attraction is the Nanjing City Wall, which dates back to the 14th century and is one of the longest city walls in the world. Another historical site is the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, the final resting place of the Hongwu Emperor, who founded the Ming dynasty in 1368.

But Nanjing isn't just about history. The city also boasts modern attractions, such as the Nanjing Olympic Sports Center, which hosted the 2014 Youth Olympic Games. You can catch a game or concert at the center's 61,443-seat stadium, or take a stroll through the adjacent Olympic Forest Park.
