Situated in the eastern part of the country ' it was called the East sacred Mountain, the First of the Five Sacred Mountains. Its principal peak rises majestically 1,545 metres above sea level. There are many famous scenic sports and places of (Historical interest on Mount Taishan. In historical times Mount Taishan was held in reverence by emperors of the various dynasties. Many of them, after ascending the throne, made pilgrimages to Taishan to confer titles on the mountain to show that they were acting on the will of Heaven so that they might reign in peace. Attracted by its frame, many scholars and men of letters in the past also left their foot prints on Mount Taishan.
