The main reason we picked 山東省 Shandong Province as our first destination to travel to for the “中國旅遊 中国旅游 China Tourism” project was to visit the 孔府 Confucius Mansion.

 

# 孔府 (Kǒng fǔ) [1]

 

孔府 (Confucius Mansion / Kǒng fǔ) , also known as 聖公府 (shèng gōng fǔ), is located in 曲阜市 Qufu City in the 山東省 Shandong Province of 中國 China. It is the residence mansion of the Confucius family.

 

The 孔府 Confucius Mansion, the 孔廟 Confucius Temple, and the 孔林 Confucius Cemetery [2] are collectively known as the 「三孔」“three Confucius”. They are part of China’s key protected cultural relics, and is listed as part of the World Cultural Heritage in December 1994.

 

孔府,又稱衍聖公府,位於中國山東省曲阜市,是孔子的世襲衍聖公的後代居住的府第。孔府與曲阜孔廟、孔林合稱「三孔」,是中國重點文物保護單位,1994年12月被列為世界文化遺產。

# 聖府大門

 

聖府大門 (圣府大门 “Holy Mansion Grand Entrance” Shèng fǔ dàmén) is the main door to the 孔府 Confucius Mansion, which was designed in the style of 懸山式建築 (悬山式建筑 “hanging cliff styled architecture” Xuán shān shì jiànzhú)[2].

 

The two characters “聖府” (圣府 “Holy House” Shèng fǔ) were written on the 匾額 (匾额 “plaque”) [3]. It was written by 嚴嵩 (严嵩 Yan Song [4]) from the 明朝 (Ming Dynasty) [5].

門兩邊有對聯一幅“與國咸休安富尊榮公府第,同天井老文章道德聖人家”,其中“富”字少上面一點,寓“富貴無頭”,“章”字一豎通到上面立字,寓“文章通天”,此聯概括出千百年來“聖人家”的氣派。[6 / Google Translate]
