Nanjing, a bustling metropolis in eastern China that serves as the capital of Jiangsu province, has embraced eclectic influences across its long history, from foundations laid during the Six Dynasties (220-589) to the intellectual cosmopolitanism of China’s Republic era (1912-1949).
Its culinary scene is infused with the Halal flavours of its Hui Muslim residents and imperial influences, all niftily blended with the precision of Huaiyang chefs.
A weekend trip to Nanjing is a great idea for those who love great food and architecture with a side of history. Here is an itinerary to consider.
