  Confucian Memorial Services now monthly in QufuTravel Tips & Tourist Informatio
  841 Hits (Posted by Genova Posted on Apr 02, 2006) (2 Comments)
Every year on September 28th, the city of Qufu holds a grand "memorial service" for Confucius, known locally as "Kongzi". Beginning this month, however, a more simplified version of the memorial service will be held every 28th of the month between April & October.

Qufu locals (many of whom are related to Confucius and who are expert fortune tellers too- for 10 RMB) will be dressed in traditional ancient costumes, performing the rituals based on the Qing Dynasty period. This multiple-memorial service was designed to give more tourists a chance to see how these rituals are performed, some of which dates as far back as the Western Han Dynasty of 206BCE - 24CE.

History and Historic Sites

Jinan has a long history. The archaeological excavations have proven that there were traces of human activity in the vicinity of Jinan as early as eight to nine thousand years ago, during the early Neolithic Age. During the time of the Dawenkou Culture (6100-4600 B.C.), activities of the ancestors of Jinan people had become more abundant. They finally settled down and began building cities during the Longshan Culture Age (4600-4000 B.C.). An urban area covering some 200,000 square meters excavated at Chengzi Cliff, Longshan Town, Zhangqiu City, Jinan, ranks at the top among city relics of the same age discovered so far within China.
The name of Jinan changed with the replacement of China's feudal dynasties. The district and suburb of Jinan today was under the jurisdiction of Jibei Prefecture with the name Lixia County when Qin Shihuang, the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty (221-206 B.C.), united the separated states in China's history for the first time. At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty (206 B.C.-A.D.24), Jinan prefecture was incorporated, marking the birth of the name of Jinan. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), Jinan became the capital of Shandong Province, the residential city of the administrative, military and juridical chief officers. Since then, Jinan has continued to be the political center of Shandong. At the time of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), Jinan remained as the capital of Shandong Province and experienced a faster growth than before. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi, Jinan became a commercial city of considerable magnitude. Thus, through the passing of time, Jinan has marched from ancient to modern history with steady strides.
Famous scenic spots, rich in culture, are found at Daming Lake, Baotu Spring, Qianfo Mountain, Lingyan Temple, the Four-door Pagoda, Wufeng Mountain, and the Great Wall of the Qi Dynasty. Relics of Longshan Culture abound. Of special interest is the Han Dynasty King Mausoleum at Luozhuang, where every brick, tile, and building is symmetrical, balanced, simple, and vigorous, a reflection of the brilliance of eastern culture.
