Mount Tai

Mount Tai, usually called the head of the five mountains in China, has the reputation of "the first mountain in the world", also known as Dongyue, and is one of the ten most beautiful and shocking famous mountains in China. Mount Tai, located in the middle of Shandong Province, has magnificent natural landscape, which has been permeated and rendered by spiritual culture for thousands of years and set off by human landscape. Famous scenic spots include Tianzhu Peak, Sunview Peak, Baizhang Cliff, Xianren Bridge, Wudaokou, hope people loose, Longtan Waterfall, Qiao Yun Waterfall and Santan Waterfall. Mount Tai was listed in the World Natural and Cultural Heritage List on 1987. For thousands of years, twelve emperors have come to Mount Tai to worship Zen. Confucius left the admiration of "Climbing Mount Tai and Being Small in the World", and Du Fu left the eternal swan song of "Climbing to the Top, the other mountains all appear dwarfs under the sky.". .

Pangu opened the sky and turned to Mount Tai.

There are countless famous mountains in the world, headed by Kaidongyue in Pangutian. Why do emperors and sentient beings all respect Mount Tai in Dongyue? This must start with Pangu, who created the world. Legend has it that a long time ago, when the world was just formed and heaven and earth were just separated, there was a man named Pangu who grew up between heaven and earth. The sky rises ten feet a day, the earth grows ten feet a day and Pangu grows one foot a day. So day after day, year after year, he lived tenaciously. After 18,000 years, the sky is extremely high, the ground is extremely thick, and Pangu grows extremely high. His breath evaporated into wind, his breathing turned into thunder, and his eyes blinked, flashing blue light. It was lightning. When he is happy, the sky becomes clear, and when he is angry, the sky becomes rainy. Later, Pangu grew old and died suddenly. In an instant, the giant fell to the ground, his head became Dongyue, his abdomen became Zhongyue, his left arm became Nanyue, his right arm became Beiyue, his feet became Xiyue, his eyes became the sun and the moon, his hair became vegetation, and his oil became rivers. Because Pangu created the world and later generations respected him as the ancestor of mankind, his head became Mount Tai. Therefore, Mount Tai is known as the supreme "the first mountain in the world" and has become the head of the five mountains.
