Taishan Mountain

Located in Shandong province in East China, Taishan Mountain was regarded as pre-eminent among China’s Five Holy Mountains. 72 Chinese emperors from various dynasties made pilgrimages to Taishan Mountain for sacrificial and other ceremonial purposes.

With a large and impressive rock mass covering 25,000 hectares and rising to 1545 meters above the surrounding plateau, Taishan Mountain is also considered one of the most beautiful scenic spots in China.

In 1987, Taishan Mountain was added to the World Cultural and Natural Heritage List of UNESCO.
