Zhongshan Wharf, Historic ferry terminal in Gulou District, Nanjing, China

Zhongshan Wharf extends along the southern bank of the Yangtze River, featuring a passenger terminal building and multiple steel bridges for boat docking.

The terminal, completed in 1928, gained its current name in 1929 when it received Sun Yat-sen's remains during the grand funeral procession to Nanjing.

The terminal building incorporates architectural elements from the Republican era of China, with detailed stonework and traditional Chinese roof structures.

The ferry service operates daily from 5:00 AM to 11:00 PM, with departures every 20 minutes connecting Zhongshan Wharf to Pukou Terminal across the river.

The terminal served as a landing point for the People's Liberation Army during the Crossing of the Yangtze River Campaign on April 23, 1949.
