Victoria Shandong Association and Chamber of Commerce - Join hands to create brilliance, welcome to join the Victoria Shandong Association and Shandong Chamber of Commerce

Shandong, this ancient land, has nurtured a splendid history and rich cultural heritage. As one of the important birthplaces of Chinese civilization, Shandong is not only the hometown of great thinkers such as Confucius and Mencius, but also the birthplace of numerous heroes. Shandong culture, centered on Confucianism, emphasizes benevolence and propriety. These ideals have profoundly influenced the character and conduct of Shandong people, making them renowned worldwide for their hospitality, honesty, and trustworthiness.

Shandong's history dates back to ancient times, leaving behind a wealth of cultural relics and historical sites, such as the Temple of Confucius, the Cemetery of Confucius, and the Confucius Mansion in Qufu, as well as Mount Tai and the ancient city of Qingzhou. These are all invaluable cultural heritage of the Chinese nation. Shandong's natural landscapes are equally captivating, from the majestic Mount Tai to the coastal scenery of Qingdao, showcasing the natural beauty of Shandong.

Shandong people are renowned for their wisdom and diligence, achieving remarkable success in agriculture, industry, and science. As one of China's eight major cuisines, Shandong cuisine, with its rich flavors and unique cooking techniques, has become an integral part of Chinese culinary culture.

In a province rich in cultural heritage and rich in history, Shandong people not only inherit traditional virtues but also demonstrate an open and enterprising spirit. They are courageous in exploring new knowledge, actively integrating into the tide of globalization, and through their hard work and wisdom, have left a significant mark on the world.
