NANJING · JIANGSU · PURPLE MOUNTAIN GOLF
Nanjing was capital of China six separate times, and the golf sits in the pine forests at the foot of Purple Mountain, twenty minutes from a Ming-dynasty city wall. History density per kilometre is unmatched anywhere on this website.
THE GOLF IN NANJING
The reference round climbs the pine slopes of Purple Mountain — mature tree-lined corridors, quiet weekday tee sheets, and the mountain park that holds the Ming Xiaoling mausoleum as a neighbour. Every card below includes how a visitor actually gets on the tee.
NANJING · PURPLE MOUNTAIN · MATURE PARKLAND
A championship course in the pine forests at the foot of Purple Mountain, twenty minutes from the old city wall. Tree-lined demands off the tee, quiet weekday pace, and autumn leaves that change the whole scoreboard.
BEST MAR–MAY & SEP–NOV
VISITOR ACCESS · BOOKED VIA CGTNanjing rewards travellers who read before they fly. Round at Purple Mountain in the morning; Sun Yat-sen’s mausoleum walk, the city wall at sunset and the memorial quarter on the culture days. February adds plum-blossom season to everything. One hour from Shanghai by train, and nobody expects it — that is rather the point.
For the non-golfers — Purple Mountain’s mausoleum and Ming Xiaoling, the Nanjing Museum, Xuanwu Lake at dusk, and the Yangtze riverfront. The non-golf days here are the equal of any city in China.
A WEEK, ROUGHLY
A three-day spine your plan grows from — arrivals, tee times and the day your non-golfers remember. Every private itinerary is built around your flight times, not a template.
Touch down at High-speed rail hub, meet your English-speaking driver, and — if the flight lands before mid-afternoon — take Zhongshan International Golf Club as the opening round. Evening is kept deliberately loose: hot pot, an early night, or whatever the jet lag votes for.
A full day built around the course your planner ranks first for your handicaps. Non-golfers get the day their way while the golf runs — we drive them out and pick them up.
A morning without an alarm, then the part of Nanjing people actually remember — Purple Mountain’s mausoleum and Ming Xiaoling, the Nanjing Museum, Xuanwu Lake at dusk, and the Yangtze riverfront. Transfer to High-speed rail hub timed to your flight.
WHERE WE PUT YOU
Hotel and villa picks scored on one metric above all: minutes from the first tee, then breakfast, then the view. In that order.
Lake-view comfort inside the city wall ring; the course, wall and mausoleum all within twenty minutes.
Republican-era architecture lanes — the dinner-and-evening walk district.
COURSE FILES
Each course has its own file: the honest description, who designed it, when it plays best, and how a visitor actually gets on the tee. Open one, or ask us to sequence them into a week.
ASKED BEFORE YOU ASK
And the honest answers. Everything else — visas, weather, your handicap versus that back nine — is one message away.
March – May & September – November (plum bloom Feb–Mar) — that is the honest window. The greens keep their condition because these are resort-standard courses, and your planner will push you inside the sweet season rather than the cheapest one.
Some of China's best courses are members-first. We hold long-term club relationships precisely so visitors don't have to — tee times are arranged as part of the trip, with caddies, carts and the driver between hotel and clubhouse.
One message with your dates and handicaps. Within a business day you get a day-by-day plan — courses matched to your game, hotels near the tees, drivers, transfers — and a single fixed all-in price. No deposit to see the draft.
DOORS, TRAINS & TEE SHEETS
Nanjing South is one of China’s biggest rail hubs — Shanghai in an hour, Beijing in three and a half. Most golf groups arrive Shanghai, ride north after two rounds, and fly home from Nanjing or back down the spine.
