Nishan Sacred Land

It is said that Confucius was born on Nishan Mountain 2,500 years ago, around the same time as the Buddha Shakyamuni. In 2018, Nishan Sacred Land was built to commemorate the "Confucius of the World." The main attractions of the scenic area are the 72-meter-tall bronze statue of Confucius (representing Confucius' 72 disciples) and the Confucius Institute. The bronze statue of Confucius is the tallest bronze statue in the world, and it stands in front of Confucius Lake as if bowing to the world. Thousands of students who come here are all children of China who have been immersed in Confucianism for thousands of years. Standing in front of the statue, you might as well bow deeply to this great master of the past, as this is also a precious treasure of Chinese faith! The Confucius Institute is also magnificent. From the 72 sages' oil paintings at the entrance to the 72 sages' corridor, the Shanxi clay sculpture technique is used to show the stories of Confucius marrying off his daughter, Yan Hui eating from a ladle, and more. It is very suitable for children to study. Climb the stairs and look up at the plaque that reads "High Mountain," and you will feel the mountain of knowledge. On the second floor, there are five cultural exhibition halls, "Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, and Trust," which vividly display the profoundness of Confucian culture! On the first basement floor, there is the famous "Golden Sound and Jade Vibration" live performance. The 60-minute performance is exciting, depicting a Confucian disciple from birth to adulthood, from making achievements to starting a career, and finally to the great success of cultural dissemination! With the help of high-tech sound, light, and electricity, every visitor can travel through time and space, communicate with sages, reflect on themselves, and imagine the future of their descendants! Of course, there is also a performance featuring drones, fireworks, and water curtains, which will once again shock you with the world of Confucius and the Confucius of the world! Welcome to Nishan Sacred Land, a place full of wisdom and humor!
