During their visit, participants explored Nishan Sacred Land, admired the towering statue of Confucius, and sampled traditional Kong Family cuisine. They also experienced the "Golden Sound and Jade Vibration" ritual music performance, while a stunning drone and water-screen fireworks show blended modern technology with ancient heritage after dark.

French travel creator Alonzi Quentin was captivated by the creative performance. "Confucius's philosophy has a global influence," he noted. "The ingenious immersive experiences here bring ancient wisdom to life, and I've already recommended this unique cultural charm to my family members and friends."
