Introduction to the main tourist attractions in Jining, Shandong Province Top ten tourist attractions in Jining, Shandong Province

What are the tourist attractions in Jining?

Jining is a famous historical and cultural city with many tourist attractions. It is also the area I have visited the most.

Speaking of Jining’s tourist attractions, they are undoubtedly the Three Confucius Confucius Mansion, Confucius Temple, and Confucius Forest. It is the hometown of Confucius, and I was deeply impressed by the pancakes rolled with green onions I ate there.

I also climbed up Shuibo Liangshan, saw the Juyi Hall in Liangshan, felt the history and culture of Shuibo Liangshan, and tasted Wudalang sesame cakes.

During last year’s National Day, I climbed Mount Yi. I was surprised by Mount Yi. I didn’t expect that Mount Yi would be so majestic. The huge boulders all over the mountain were shocking.

After descending from Yishan Mountain, we drove about 20 kilometers north and arrived at an ancient village (Shangjiu Village). Unexpectedly, it was an unexpected surprise. The ancient stage was preserved in the village before the Cultural Revolution. The various houses and furnishings are worthy of your exploration.

I have been to Jining a few years ago. The city is relatively clean and Shandong people are also very hospitable. Due to the rush of time, I only looked at a few surrounding attractions. I remember going to Sankong and Baoxiang Temple in Wenshang County. The tooth bone relic of Sakyamuni in Baoxiang Temple is very shocking. It is two or three times the size of an average human tooth. It is said that the incense here is very powerful.

Wenshang County was the place where Confucius first became an official. It was at the county magistrate level, and it was the largest official he had ever held in his life. It is said that he is considerate of people's sentiments, has a good reputation, and has good political achievements. He was too good to be an official, and had no ambition to serve the country. He traveled around the country, trying to achieve great things, but encountered obstacles at every turn. In the end, he had to return to Anxin and become a teacher. He accepted three thousand disciples and gave birth to many Sun Wukong, Bajie, Monk Sha, White Dragon Horse, etc. A big-shot figure, he was an official, a worker, a peasant, a businessman, a student, and a soldier, but he was also a role model for others, whom he admired for thousands of years, and became his own school of Confucianism.

I remember that there was a famous Weishan Lake fish feast in Jining City, and a local friend took it to eat. They are all aquatic products from Weishan Lake. They are made with various techniques and are full of color, flavor and flavor. They are still fresh in your memory and are very good.

I will visit Jining again if I have the opportunity in the future.

As for Jining, it is not a place close to the sea. It is a warm temperate climate area located in the East Asian monsoon climate zone.

If you want to eat this kind of fish, it is more convenient, because it is in the urban area of ??Jining. As for it, it is also very good to eat it with green vegetables and lotus root.
