Last weekend, we went to nanjing. We took the new train which is about 1 hour journey from wuxi to nanjing. It quite a beautiful place, at least better than wuxi.
Opposite the train station is a big lake park.

After which, we went to the city area. The traffic was terrible. The shopping mall are boring. All branded stuff. Then we headed on to one of nanjing's tourist attraction, zhong shan ling. This place is very very big. We din even mangaged to explore what to were supposed to see and we had to leave the place beacuse at 5.30pm, the sky is already pitch dark.This place is where sun zhong shan corpse is buried. From all the history recorded, he is someone definitely worth praising. This entire maseuloum is built like a bell shape at the top view. It's completed in 1929.

Tons of steps...
A cauldron...
"grand palace"
Scenic viewThis is where his corpse is place. The figure on top of the coffin is crafted by a czech dude.
Nothing musical inside.
white pigeons!!! Fei Ke Chuan Shu
It's really tiring walking up and down...
At night we went to this famous place called fu zi mian. In the older days, this place is where all the prostitute are located.
We stayed somewhere nearby Lv's friend university. After we settled down, we went to his university and have a look. It's very spacious and nice. Perfect place for couples to date. It's freaking cold in the night. Smoke is coming out of our mouth as we speak.
Next day, we went to the president house aka istana. Once again, this place is gigantic. How i wish i have a house like this. We walked for so long and it's only part of the place.
Emperor seat aka. Long Yi

Some ex president office. Kinda it's kinda boring to visit historical place as it's not really related to me or my country but well it's an experience...
Conference room..
After which, we went to visit a guy in nanjing university of aeronautical and astronatical. Lv is under a misson from her friend to take a photo of him. Got to know each other thru china version of friendster. Quite a cool university except that it's majority guy. Students here are linked to the government sector, air force or airline pilot. The drink vendors there sold draft beer at a damn cheap price.
We rushed off to the train station asap after staying in that uni for sometime. The most infuriating was we can't get the new train back to wuxi. We had to take the stupid and slow old train back which is around 3 hours instead of 1 hour. Moreover, the seats are much more uncomfortable as compared to the new train. Old train tickets cost half the price of new train tickets.
Got a new hair cut plus dye. Gotten curl treatment in the centre and straightening by some cream in front. Sat in the saloon for 3 hours but it's worth it. 150 RMB which is 30 SGD. And their cutting skills are reallly professional. This hairstyle is taken from a jap magazine. Quite ahppy with it beside the tiring part staying at the saloon.
