Laoshan Taiqing Palace

⛩️ Taiqing Palace | A Taoist Kingdom on Mount Laoshan, Qingdao If you want to experience the tranquility and ancient atmosphere of China, don't miss Taiqing Palace (太清宫), an ancient site dating back to the Han Dynasty. It sits atop a hill surrounded on three sides, facing the sea. 🌊 The palace is surrounded by inscriptions and scenic spots that tell fascinating stories of Taoism. This makes it more than just a palace, it's also the largest center of Taoist culture and architecture in Qingdao and Shandong Province. Don't miss the statue of Laozi, the ancient philosopher who founded Taoism, standing tall in the center of the palace. A visit here guarantees tranquility, grandeur, and a sense of faith. ✨ #ChinaTravelGroup #China #Qingdao 📸 cr. 好运🍀, 姐姐在路上......., 一朵沛纭【小红书】
