How high is Laoshan Mountain and how many meters above sea level?
Laoshan Mountain is 1132.7 meters above sea level.
Laoshan, located in Laoshan District, Qingdao, Shandong Province, was also called Laoshan, Laoshan and Aoshan in ancient times. It is the main mountain range of Shandong Peninsula. The highest peak of Laoshan Mountain is called Jufeng, also known as Laoding, which is located at 36 1' north latitude and 12 37' east longitude, with an altitude of 1,132.7 meters and a peak area of about 1.5 square kilometers.
Laoshan Mountain is the highest peak in China's coastline and is known as the "first famous mountain" on the sea. There is an old local saying: "Although Mount Tai is high in clouds, it is not as good as the East China Sea Lao." Laoshan Mountain is high in the east and close to the sea, gentle in the west and hilly, with a mountainous area of 446 square kilometers. The mountains are centered on Laoding and extend in all directions, especially in the northwest and southwest.
Four branches are formed, namely, Jufeng, Sanbiao Mountain, Shimen Mountain and Wushan Mountain. The remaining veins of Laoshan Mountain extend from the east coast to the east of Jimo District to the west of Jiaozhou Bay, and the remaining veins in the southwest extend to Qingdao City, forming more than ten hills and ups and downs in the urban area.
Humanistic value:
The reason why Laoshan Mountain is famous is that on the one hand, it stands out from the sea and changes endlessly, and more importantly, it is due to the Taoist culture that has been circulating for more than 2, years, which exactly corresponds to Liu Yuxi's famous saying in the Tang Dynasty that "the mountain is not high, the fairy is famous, the water is not deep, and the dragon is spiritual". Here, mountains and seas are connected, peaks and valleys are dangerous, and the water is beautiful and strange. Since ancient times, it has been called "the house of the supernatural" and "the house of the gods".
As a famous historical and cultural mountain, Laoshan Mountain has been a treasure house for Taoist alchemists to cultivate immortality and alchemy since the Qin and Han Dynasties. At its peak, there was a saying of "Nine palaces, eight views and seventy-two temples", and there are still more than a dozen places. Taiqing Palace is the largest Taoist temple with the longest history in Laoshan Mountain, which has been more than 2,1 years, and is the representative of Taoist culture in Laoshan Mountain.
