1. Peaches - fruit of the Season
Favorite thing: These are called peaches. There are really delicious!. It is seasonal. You can eat it with its skin, so it's a convenient fruit to take along when travelling China in Nanjing- Just wash it and eat it!. Eating one of these could really fill up your stomach. Some are soft and juicy and some are hard and crunchy - ask for the type you like.
You buy peaches in weight. Two of these huge ones cost 10.80yuan

2. Nanning's Main Train Station
Favorite thing: Nanning's Main Train Station is located along the main road of Zhonghua Road. It is a big station and lots of trains go to the various provinces of China. Around this area there are many hotels, motels and guesthouses. You can also find lots of eateries here. Many of the intercity buses stop around here. Good place to base yourself in this vicinity especially if you are a backpacker.
3. Jiangnan Bus Station in Nanning
Favorite thing: If you happened to arrive in Nanning's south bus station called the Jiangnan Bus Station which is away from the city centre, you can board an intercity bus to the town centre which is more convenient and accessible to places of interests. Go across the main road which is opposite this bus station and catch the following buses :-
1) Bus route no. 41 which is a 25mins ride will take you to near the Main Train Station - along Chaoyang road (Fare is 2yuan, unit for Chinese currency)
2) Bus route no. 407 which is 20mins ride will take you to town centre's bus station (Fare is 1.20yuan)
4. Monkeys in Yi Ling Ya
Favorite thing: After your tour in the Yi Ling Cave which is about 45minutes to an hour, you will arrive at the exit where most of the visitors will be waiting for their photos to be ready (those that were captured by the photographer inside the cave). Right outside this counter, there are lots of monkeys, big and small waiting for you to feed them. You can buy from the vendors, small packets of groundnuts, costing 1yuan to give the monkeys a meal.
Becareful when feeding the monkeys - they could be greedy and notorious and come snatching your packet of nuts.
