A great place for immersive Confucian cultural study tours!
Confucius said: "Be steadfast in your beliefs and love learning; uphold the Way even unto death; do not enter a dangerous state, nor reside in a chaotic state; appear when the Way prevails, and remain hidden when it does not. In a state where the Way prevails, to be poor and lowly is shameful; in a state where the Way does not prevail, to be rich and noble is shameful."
Recommended by a friend from Shandong, this is a relatively new tourist attraction. The visitor center has a large parking area with plenty of spaces. After reaching the main gate, you need to take a bus to get to the rest of the park; the ticket includes shuttle bus service. The park itself is quite large. The university hall has eight floors and five exhibition halls themed around benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness. It also features performances, souvenirs, a 5D movie, and a restaurant. Outdoors, there's a 70-meter-tall statue of Confucius, and there's a light and fireworks show at night. It's definitely worth bringing children to experience.

We made a special trip to Qufu to pay homage to the Confucian sage, visiting the Confucius Mansion and the Confucius Temple. I would definitely recommend inviting a teacher to give a guided tour, otherwise it would be impossible to fully appreciate the profound historical and cultural heritage and understand the sage-like philosophy of Confucius. He truly deserves to be called the founder of Confucianism and has been revered and worshipped by royalty and common people throughout history. I think it's worth a visit!
Of the Confucius Temple, Confucius Mansion, and Confucius Cemetery, the Confucius Temple is my favorite. You can experience the reverence shown to Confucius by successive emperors and visit the old well at the Confucius Residence. The Confucius Mansion is the residence of Confucius' descendants, and the Confucius Cemetery is the burial site of the Kong family. You can purchase a combined ticket for both.
The Confucius Temple also features performances including the opening and closing ceremonies, a Confucius memorial performance, and a light show. Staying near the Confucius Temple is highly recommended for convenient viewing.

Mr. Kong’s explanation was wonderful. There were many children in the group, and his explanation and interaction were very targeted. They were vivid and detailed, yet humorous and witty. He was passionate throughout the two and a half hours. I could feel his full involvement. He was by no means superficial or perfunctory. I was very moved!
It is still very necessary to listen to the explanation of the Confucius Museum. We were very lucky to meet Teacher Chen, who is very beautiful, elegant and very connotative! She took us through the whole process with great patience. The explanation process was not boring at all. She also interacted with the children. The children liked it very much and were always very focused! Teacher Chen will carefully introduce each exhibit, and the meaning behind each exhibit is very moving! A very good experience! Recommend Teacher Chen! 👍
