Strolling down Xiaotang Road feels like stepping into old Nanjing - the blue-brick buildings with slate tiles ooze 1920s charm, while sycamore-shaded alleys hide artisan cafes perfect for Instagram. When lanterns glow along the cobblestones at dusk, this is prime time for atmospheric photos! Don't miss granny's sticky lotus root desserts by the corner stall, a crunchy-sweet snack locals have loved for generations.
