Chinese Painting Exhibition of Shandong opens
As the home of the Qi and Lu states during the Spring and Autumn (770-476 BC) and Warring States (475-221 BC) Periods, Shandong, one of the origins of Chinese civilization, was also called Qilu in ancient times.
It is also a pivotal cultural and religious site for Taoism, Chinese Buddhism, and Confucianism.
Shandong's Mount Tai is the most revered mountain of Taoism and somewhere with the longest history of continuous religious worship. The city of Qufu is the birthplace of Confucius, and was later established as the center of Confucianism.
Shandong's artists display the profound Qilu culture in their works, depicting scenes of grandeur and elegance.
