Nishan Sacred Land Attraction Park
According to legend, Confucius was born about 30 km southeast of Qufu, in a cave on Nishan (mountain). As a modern way to honor Confucius, the Nishan Sacred Land Attraction Park opened on 28 September – Confucius’ birthday – in 2018. The centerpiece is the world’s largest Confucius statue, made of brass and standing impressively tall at 72 m.
A splendid building here is used for educational exhibits and visits. There is a striking level of detail in the design, incorporating and celebrating Confucian values.
