The Nanjing Museum holds the distinction of being the first national museum in China. Even today, it remains one of the largest museums in China, with over 400,000 items in its permanent collection. The museum's palatial architecture is breathtaking, encompassing a historical area and art gallery with a total of 12 exhibition halls. Some of the most precious ancient artefacts are exhibited here, making it a must-see for history enthusiasts. An important Chinese art masterpiece, “Story of the Grand Capital”, is digitally animated and projected onto textured backgrounds.

Separated from Laganas by a 5-kilometre stretch of beach designated as part of the National Marine Park (and as such, free of buildings), Kalamaki is less raucous than its near neighbour and certainly more appealing to families and couples. It shares the same marvellous sands and striking views, and it is very close to the airport.

With the exception of Cardiff Castle, St John the Baptist Church is the oldest building in the city. The church originally dates back to 1180 but was destroyed in 1404 during the Welsh Revolt and rebuilt thereafter in Gothic style. Now it serves as an Anglican church and is open to the public for prayer or visit.
