With a history of more than 600 years, Shixiang Road in the Xiaoling Mausoleum, China's Jiangsu Province, is known as Nanjing's "most beautiful 600 meters," adorned with tallow, gingko and trident maple trees.
The road serves as the first section of the shinto to the Xiaoling Mausoleum, the burial site of the Ming Dynasty's (1368-1644) founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.
