Mount Ni (Chinese: 尼山; pinyin: Ní Shān) is a hill about 30 km (19 mi) to the southeast of the city of Qufu[1] in Shandong Province, China.
[3] The existence of the Temple of Kong He can be traced back to the times of the Northern Wei dynasty (386–535 CE).
However, the temple was abandoned and restored repeatedly during the Later Tang, Later Zhou, Song, Jin, and Yuan dynasties.
[1] Other structures in the academy include the Erdai and Sandai Halls, the Liang Wu, the Lingxing Gate (靈星門), the Shen Bao, the Tudi Temple (dedicated to the local Earth Deity), and the Guan Chuan Pavilion.
[1] Outside the eastern enclosure wall lies the Confucius Cave (Chinese: 夫子洞; pinyin: Fūzǐ Dòng).
