章節(jié)摘錄

Owing to the promotion of tourism, some Confucian Temples with along history in the south of the Yangtze, such as Fuzi Temple in Nanjing,Confucian Temple in Shanghai, Confucian Temple in Jiading, ConfucianTemple in Jiangyin, and others, were renovated and opened to publicover a decade ago. But the Confucian Temples, Study Palaces and the ceremony of offering sacrifices to Confucius still remain strange and unknown to most visitors. They do not know that Confucian Temples existed in every county and city across the country as early as over 100 years ago.For some reasons, the study on government-run schools, Confucian Temples, in ancient China is almost in a blank state, and even college students who have studied the history of Chinese architecture have little knowledge of the structure of Confucian Temples, let alone the commonpublic.
