The Qinhuai River, the cradle of Nanjing culture, is renowned for its saying, ‘Clothes and culture, prosperous in the south; literary elegance, unparalleled in the world.’ It has also witnessed the history of the establishment and capitalization of Nanjing, with numerous historical sites and stories along its banks. There is a local saying, ‘One Qinhuai River, half of Jinling’s history.’ As people travel by water, the boat seems to move within a painting. The Qinhuai River cruise ship is a mobile cultural teahouse, using various scenic spots as carriers and integrating historical anecdotes, folk culture interaction, and historical appearances into a new tourism ecosystem, providing tourists with a rich, convenient, and comfortable travel experience.
