Welcome to friendly Shandong and Shandong. Speaking of tourism in Shandong, I believe most people will think of Mount Tai, which is not only a world cultural and natural heritage, but also the first of the five mountains. Since Qin Shihuang, 13 emperors have personally climbed Mount Tai to offer sacrifices. It is because of their great fame that other famous mountains in Shandong are little known. Mengshan can be regarded as one of them. Mengshan is called the first mountain in Shandong, second only to it.
Mengshan is located in the hinterland of Yimeng Mountain in the northwest of Linyi City, Shandong Province. Because it is located in the east of Shandong Province, it was called Dongmeng and Dongshan in ancient times. It is one of the components of Yimeng Mountain Scenic Area, a national AAAAA-level scenic spot. Now it is also a world geological park, a sacred place for health and longevity in the world, with a vegetation coverage rate of over 98%. It is also the first ecological mountain in China. It can be said that you can feel different ways of keeping in good health here.
Mengshan Mountain originated in Taishan Mountain, with a total area of 1 100 square kilometers. The main peak is called Guimengding, with an altitude of165,438+056 meters. It is the largest mountain in Shandong and the second highest peak after Mount Tai. Since ancient times, Gui Mengding has always enjoyed the reputation of Adai. Mengshan is above sea level 1000.
Mengshan, in addition to the beautiful ecological environment, the most important thing is the cultural heritage here, which is quite outstanding. Historically known as the Dongyi civilization. During the Western Zhou Dynasty, a series of sacrificial activities were mainly held in Mengshan, where there were also many well-known poems. Confucius once brought his disciples here, overlooking the mountains and rivers in Shandong. "Confucius climbed Dongshan and became a little Lu." Dongshan here refers to Mengshan.
When I came to Mengshan, the first thing I saw was the turtle top, which was named after the shape of its peak resembled that of a lying turtle. Here, you can also see the largest mountain carving in the world, named "Mengshan Shouxian". The whole sculpture has a size of 218m and a width of198m, which was once recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records.
All kinds of hills here in Mengshan are quite steep, giving people the most direct feeling that they are horizontal like knives. It is also the first choice for many outdoor adventure lovers. Camping here is quite exciting. Every night is the gospel of many astronomy lovers. The stars in the sky here can see through the whole galaxy at a glance when the weather is good, which is quite beautiful. Be sure to bring your family to see the beautiful scenery here during the holiday!
Another scenic spot in Shandong has also become popular, where the world's largest "Shoutao" is hidden, also known as the first mountain in Shandong.
