Just a quick email to thank all at Tour Beijing for a brilliant 3 days tour from Beijing to Jinan, Qufu and Mt.taishan. All the guides spoke English really well and each had an amazing knowledge of the local area and history. The hotels were fantastic. I will be recommending Tour Beijing to anyone visiting China for the tremendous support I received both in person and over the phone. Please pass on my thanks to all of the local guides and keep up the good work.
Yours truly, Helen Brewis
Shandong is a coastal province of the eastern China. "Shandong" literally means “mountain's east”, which is related to the province's location east of the Taihang Mountains. Shandong is located in the lower reaches of Yellow River and extends out to sea in the Shandong Peninsula. Shandong borders the Yellow sea to the southeast, Bohai Bay to the north, Henan to the west, Hebei to the northwest, Jiangsu to the south and also have a very short border with Anhui. Sandong is nicknamed "Qilu"after the two states"Qi" and "Lu" existed here 2000 years ago during the Spring and Autumn Period. Shandong boasts of a great number of historical places and scenic spots, like Mount Tai, Qufu, Jinan, Qingdao, Weihai, Zibo, Weihai and Yantai.
Qufu and Mt.Taishan are two of the most important places of interest worth visiting. Qufu is a famous historical and cultural city best known as the hometown of Confucius (551-479BC). Confucius was born in 551 B.C and was a great philosopher in the Chinese history and the founder of the Chinese Confucian school. He has had a decisive influence on the moral character and the cultural formation of the Chinese nation for more than 2000 years. Mount Taishan is located in central-western part of Shandong Province. Rising 1545 meters above sea level, it is the most significant of the sacred peaks in China. During the period of Qin Dynasty and Han Dynasty, Taishan Mountain has gradually turned into a famous mountain where the emperors granted titles to Buddhists and did their worship until the Ming and Qing Dynasty. In history, 72 Chinese emperors came here for worshiping or holding ceremonies of handing crowns.
