at Yinnianjin, one of the locals' favorites for
steamed dumplings. Each basket contains
eight hot and adorable meaty pockets with

nearby Xuanwu Lake. The massive park has a
breathtaking landscape and a buzzing morn-

energy for the long walk ahead. The Republic
of China-themed space features staff in peri-
od costume, an open kitchen and plate after
plate of mouth-watering local fare.

President Palace, which is a 10-minute walk
from Daxinggong station on Metro Line 2.

spree by the Japanese soldiers

Nanjing is the capital of Jiangsu province in
eastern China and has a prominent place
in Chinese history and culture, having been
the capital of China on several occasions. Its
present name means "Southern Capital" and
was widely romanized as Nankin and Nan-
king until the pinyin language reform, after
which Nanjing was gradually adopted as the
standard spelling of the city's name in most
languages that use the Roman alphabet.
Located in the lower Yangtze River drainage
basin and Yangtze River Delta economic
zone, Nanjing has long been one of China's
most important cities. It is recognized as
one of the Four Great Ancient Capitals of
China. It was the capital of Wu during the
Three Kingdoms Period and the capital of
tbe Republlc ot Cblna prlor to lts Nlgbt to
Taiwan during the Chinese Civil War. Nanjing
ls also one ot tbe tteen sub-provlnclal cltles
in the People's Republic of China's adminis-
trative structure, enjoying jurisdictional and
economic autonomy only slightly less than
that of a province. Nanjing has long been a
national centre of education, research, trans-
port networks and tourism. The city will
host the 2014 Summer Youth Olympics.
