Mount Tai is arguably the raison d'etre of Tai'an City, to which it has bestowed its name.
Towering at over 1,500 meters, Mount Tai has an impressive sublimity. It is one of only five sacred mountains in China, and within that group, it reigns supreme, proudly claiming the title "Chief of the Five Sacred Mountains" and featuring a stone inscription with the same message to officialize its status.
