Yongcheng Mangdang Mountain | A thousand-year dialogue with Confucius

| Have a thousand-year-old dialogue with Confucius. He who controls the Central Plains controls the world - Yu Jian Mangdang Mountain is a 5A-level scenic spot in Yongcheng. Here, you can not only see Liu Bang, the first emperor of the Han Dynasty, slaying a snake 2,000 years ago and feel the might of the Han Dynasty, but you can also pay homage to Confucius in the Confucius Temple and feel the wisdom and etiquette culture of Chinese civilization. 📍Mangdang Mountain, Yongcheng Confucius (551 BC - April 11, 479 BC), surnamed Zi, clan Kong, named Qiu, courtesy name Zhongni, was a native of Zouyi (now Qufu City, Shandong Province) in the state of Lu during the Spring and Autumn Period. His ancestral home was Liyi (now Xiayi County, Henan Province) in the state of Song. A temple was also built for the great Confucius in Mangdang Mountain, Yongcheng City, Henan Province, to commemorate the profound influence of Confucius' Confucian literature on the Central Plains for more than 2,500 years. Friends who travel to Yongcheng can come to the Confucius Temple in Mangdang Mountain to pay homage to Confucius, and then walk on the glass plank road to experience the charm of historical literature and the challenge of modern high altitudes. ps: There is also a statue of Liu Bang beheading a snake in Mangdang Mountain, which is quite spectacular. You can also go hiking to see it. The scenery is great. It is also a good place for Yongcheng residents to relax and experience history and culture on weekends.
