Introducing Feicheng
Feicheng, part of Tai'an City, is located in central Shandong Province, on the western slopes of Mount Tai. It is a resource-rich region known for its peaches. The Feicheng city emblem, a sculpture of a fairy offering peaches, stands atop an arch, surrounded by a small flower garden. The arch is supported by its four corners. The Taixi Armed Uprising Monument is located on the south side of the eastern section of Wenhua Road, directly opposite the south gate of Longshan Park and across the road from the Longshan Pagoda. The local wetland park blends natural beauty with man-made art, creating a stunning display of islands that appear to be a natural creation.
