Shandong, Province in eastern China.

The province extends between the Gulf of Bohai and Yellow Sea, featuring mountains, fertile plains, and a 3,000-kilometer coastline with numerous harbors.

The region served as the birthplace of Confucius in 551 BCE and remained a center of philosophical thought throughout the Spring and Autumn period.

Mount Tai, rising 1,545 meters above sea level, stands as a sacred mountain where emperors conducted ceremonies for over two thousand years.

The transportation network includes three major airports in Qingdao, Jinan, and Yantai, connected by high-speed rail lines to Beijing and Shanghai.

The Shandong Peninsula contains significant mineral deposits, including gold, diamonds, and sapphires, making it a central region for gemstone mining.
