Journey to Chinese Classics, New Chinese Style Check-in at Nishan Sacred Land in Shandong

Taking advantage of just finishing the exams, we came to Nishan Sacred Land in Shandong for a trip to experience the edification of sage culture and to relax in nature. We flew from Guangzhou and then took a taxi from the airport, which was very convenient. Upon arrival at the destination, we quickly settled our luggage at the Nishan Guesthouse. I came with my family, and we booked a twin room, which was clean and tidy, full of Chinese elegance. Staying here makes one feel particularly peaceful. There is also a Nishan Academy 🏨, surrounded by greenery, full of poetic and picturesque scenery, nestled by the mountains and water. Looking out the window, you see a sea of green, and walking on the shaded paths, with the gentle breeze, is very pleasant. You can choose according to your preferences and budget. I highly recommend watching "Jin Sheng Yu Zhen" ✨. It interprets the charm of Chinese ritual and music culture, showcasing the traditional virtues of filial piety, respect, and care through the integration of music, dance, and stories. I think it is not just an artistic feast but also makes one realize oneself and is thought-provoking. The activities here are arranged according to the time, and they vary slightly at different times. During our stay at Nishan Sacred Land for a few days, we not only visited the exhibitions but also viewed the statue of Confucius, admired the fountain of Shengshui Lake, and experienced the Hanfu garden tour, feeling the Confucian culture. The surrounding green trees and the endless sea in the distance are very pleasant; we also tasted the local specialties. We Cantonese people love food culture, especially the delicacies from different places. By the way, now that summer vacation is here, in July, there is the Kongming Lantern Appreciation "For You, Three Thousand Lights". Hundreds of drones carry lit Kongming lanterns forming the shape of love, very creative; and in August, there is "The Phoenix Comes", where hundreds of flying fire phoenixes can be seen in the night sky of Nishan Sacred Land, dazzling and beautiful, unforgettable at first sight. During this trip, we also saw many children coming for a family-style study tour. On the one hand, they can experience the edification of our thousand-year-old ritual and music culture, and on the other hand, they can do some interesting handicrafts, such as hand-reading the Analects, and stone rubbing, cultivating hands-on and thinking abilities. There are also some special interest classes, such as making bamboo slips of Wei Bian San Jue, which are very interesting to learn while playing.
