## About Mount Ni

The birthplace of Confucius. On the mountain are the Temple of Confucius, the Qufu Mount Ni Temple of the Mountain God and the Qufu Mount Ni Academy. The Mount Ni Confucius Temple and Mount Ni Academy were restored by several generations of Confucius's descendants, and they are simpler and more unpretentious than the official temples built by successive dynasties.
