Taishan has accompanied the inheritance of Chinese civilization over the past five thousand years. It symbolizes the prosperity of the country and the survival of the nation. It is the spiritual home of the Chinese nation, a microcosm of Eastern culture, and a place where the idea of "harmony between man and nature" is entrusted. It carries rich geographical, historical, and cultural connotations. The ancients regarded it as a paradise "leading directly to the imperial throne", making it a sacred mountain worshipped by the common people and sacrificed to by emperors.
