A former national capital on the Yangtze, Nanjing layers city walls, mausoleums and memorial sites under plane-tree avenues — while running one of China's strongest university clusters: Nanjing University, Southeast University and a dozen more. It delivers Shanghai-tier education at lower cost, one hour up the rail line, with a slower, greener city rhythm.
