The Nanjing City in China and its surroundings has many famous tourist attractions. They have a historical, religious, social, or ecological significance. But there is one unusual tourist site that gives you a vantage point from where you can get a panoramic view of most of the other attractions. That is the Taicheng wall which is the western section of the Nanjing City Wall bordering the scenic Xuanwu Lake. If you climb to the top of the Tiacheng Wall, besides the Lake you can see Jiming Temple, Jiuhuashan Hill, Zhongshan Hill, Jiefang Gate, and other popular sites around Nanjing. The Wall also has a museum showing the history of the Ming Dynasty City Wall.
