Why is Mount Tai the head of the five mountains, and is the ancient worship of heaven also there? Wh

The five mountains are because of the majesty of Mount Tai, the danger of Huashan in the west, the beauty of Hengshan in the south, the wonder of Hengshan in the north, and the steepness of Songshan in the middle.

1. Mount Tai runs through the central part of Shandong, in the territory of Tai'an City, between Tai'an City and Jinan City, it was called "Daishan" and "Daizong" in ancient times, and was renamed "Taishan" in the Spring and Autumn Period. Mount Tai is adjacent to Confucius's hometown Qufu, and the spring city of Jinan is at its back. Mount Tai rises in the east of the North China Plain, above the Qilu Plain, borders the sea in the east, relies on the Yellow River in the west, has the water of Wen, Si and Huai in the south, and is about 200 kilometers long from east to west.

2. Huashan, known as "Xiyue" in ancient times and "Taihua Mountain" in ancient times, is one of the five mountains, located in Huayin City, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province, 120 kilometers east of Xi'an, the provincial capital. It is connected to the Qinling Mountains in the south and the Huangwei Mountains in the north, and has been said to be "the first mountain in the world of strange dangers" since ancient times.

3. The main peaks of Hengshan include Huiyan Peak, Zhurong Peak, Zigai Peak, Yuelu Mountain, etc., and the highest peak is Zhurong Peak with an altitude of meters. The main part of Hengshan is between 27°4 -27°20 north latitude and 112°34 -112°44 east longitude, showing a northeast-southwest trend, starting from Futianpu Township, Hengshan County in the north, Zhangmu Township in Hengyang County in the south, starting from Jiepai Town in Hengyang County in the west, and ending in Nanyue District of Hengyang City in the east, with a length of 38 kilometers, a widest point of 17 kilometers, and a total area of 640 square kilometers.

4. Heng Mountain lies between the northern plateau of Shanxi and the Jizhong Plain, and has become a battleground for soldiers because of its steep natural mountain terrain and geographical location. The inverted horse pass, Bauhinia Pass, Pingxing Pass, Yanmen Pass, and Ningwu Pass in the mountain valley are in danger, and they are the throat of the Saiwai Plateau leading to the Taiyuan Basin and the Jizhong Plain.

5. Songshan Mountain is an important birthplace of Chinese civilization and a scenic spot in China, and is the middle of the five mountains. In February 2004, it was listed as a UNESCO Global Geopark.

Mount Tai, the first of the five mountains, is located in the central part of Shandong. It covers an area of 10,000 square kilometers The altitude of the Jade Emperor Peak is meters.

Shandong Mount Tai was regarded by the ancient people as a paradise on earth that went directly to the emperor's throne, and became the common people admired, and the king sacrificed to the public mountain, there is Taishan An, and the four seas are safe. The geological structure of Mount Tai is very complex, dominated by rupture, and its structural characteristics are the uplift of fault blocks.

Mount Tai is the largest mountain in the hills of Shandong, and its geological structure is a typical substrate and caprock structure area of tatami platform in North ChinaThe southern side has a large growth range, the caprock is lost by the regolith layer, and a large area of substrate is exposed, and the Taishan complex, that is, the geological structure of the Taishan Group in the Archean Realm, which is definitely 2.5 billion light years old, is one of the geological structures with a long history in China. The growth range in the north is small, and the caprock stores the typical Paleozoic geological structures that grew and developed on the platform in North China. The topography of Mount Tai is divided into four types: alluvial platform, dissolution sedimentary hilly terrain, structural dissolution low mountain and corroded structure low mountain.

The climate of Mount Tai is characterized by a vertical transition. At the foot of the mountain, the four seasons are distinct, the peak is spring in three seasons, the winter is bright like a mirror, that is, there is a rime crystal clear and transparent like a mirror in winter, which is one of the key garden landscapes. There was a lot of dust in the spring.

Mount Tai spring water is full, the rivers and streams are horizontal, and the water sources are relatively rich and colorful. The Taishan River takes the Jade Emperor Peak as the demarcation point. In the north, the Yufu River and the Dasha River are introduced into the big river, the Shiwen River and the Zhaijiazhuang River in the east, the Combing River and the Hangzhou Xixi River in the south, and the Panwen River in the west are all introduced into the Dawen River.

Because the terrain of Mount Tai is steep, the river is short and rapid, the corrosion force is good, and the embankment is manipulated by the broken block, so there are many falls and waterfallsThe bedrock of the valley is eroded by the flowing water and is mostly cave-like, and the water is stored into a pool, which is very easy to produce the garden landscape of the replacement of the pool and waterfall. The key waterfalls of Mount Tai are the Black Dragon Pond Waterfall, the Three Pools Stacked Waterfall and the Yunbu Bridge Waterfall.

Because Mount Tai is the highest mountain in the eastern plain region, and it is also the highest mountain in the plain area since the pre-Qin period, there are works describing Mount Tai from the "Lu Song" in the pre-Qin period, which can be said to have laid the foundation for Mount Tai to become the first of the five mountains.

Mount Tai is the symbol of the Chinese nation, the epitome of oriental culture, the place of sustenance of the idea of "the unity of heaven and man", and the home of the spirit of the Chinese nation, so it is called "the head of the five mountains".

The five mountains are the crown of the world, and the majestic vastness is more wonderful. The peaks and peaks are stacked on top of each other, and the Taishan show is climbing.

Because there are many legends about Mount Tai, and there is a saying of Pangu, I feel that Mount Tai is a very solemn place.
