　　ntroduction:

　　Zhushui Academy is located about 4 kilometers northeast of Qufu City, and is named for the “Zhu River flowing to its south and the Si River passing to its north.”

　　After Confucius returned to Lu following his travels across various states, he edited the Book of Songs and the Book of Documents here, standardized rituals and music, annotated the Book of Changes, and gathered disciples to teach. From the Han Dynasty to the Song and Jin Dynasties, it was called the Lecture Hall, and was renamed Zhushui Academy in the Yuan Dynasty. It now covers an area of 39 mu, featuring structures such as the Lecture Hall, the Dacheng Hall, side halls, as well as stone tablets from the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties.
