What I am gonna talk about today is the Three Confucius Sites which is located in a city called Qufu, Shandong Province. Qufu is widely known as the hometown of Confucius who is highly regarded as a Chinese teacher, politician and philosopher.It is said that Confucius and his 3000 students have greatly shaped Chinese culture in a hard way for thousands of years. Therefore, Confucianism is a cornerstone of Chinese civilization.

I first visited the Three Confucius Sites this summer during my family trip. The Three Confucius Historical Sites consists of the Confucius Temple, the Cemetery of Confucius and the?Kong Family Mansion. Ancient architectural buildings, ancient stone tablets,

and Confucius culture are the highlights. Especially the architectures within it have been considered as the second largest scale ancient Chinese architecture complex after the Forbidden City, therefore, it is a great treasure to the entire country which shows the beauty of oriental architecture and art in a vivid and real way. Besides, many of the plants in the Three Confucius Sites could be traced back to thousands of years ago which really amazed me, when I walked in the yards, you know, that was astonishing.

The reason why I chose to visit the Three Confucius Sites can be really simple. That is, Confucius and the Confucianism have been worshipped by millions of Chinese people over centuries.What also interests me mostly is that this historic site features in the combination of natural scenery and historic appreciation. I definitely would go there again someday.
