Location & Transportation

Nanjing Sport Institute sits at the foot of Purple Mountain (Zijin Shan) in Nanjing’s eastern suburbs, right next to two famous attractions: the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum and Linggu Temple Park. The address is No. 8 Linggu Temple Road, Xuanwu District, making it easy to reach by taxi or public transport. If you’re coming from downtown Nanjing, take Metro Line 2 to Xiaomafu Station, then switch to Bus 20 or 315. The campus covers over 600 acres (about 25 football fields!) and feels like a hidden gem tucked between historic sites and natural beauty.

Natural Scenery

The institute’s location is pure magic. Imagine training or strolling surrounded by forested hills, fresh air, and seasonal colors—think golden ginkgo leaves in autumn or cherry blossoms in spring. Purple Mountain’s trails are right outside the campus, so you can easily go for a hike after exploring. The area is super peaceful, perfect for escaping city crowds while still being close to top sights.
