\nShandong Museum, located in Jinan, China]s Shandong Province, is a national first-class museum and a national-level museum jointly built by the central government and local authorities. Completed and opened to the public in 2010, the new Shandong Museum boasts a total floor area of 128,000 square meters.
\nIt features 23 exhibition halls covering 25,000 square meters and houses a collection of over 400,000 artifacts, with a special focus on oracle bone inscriptions, Han dynasty stone carvings, and costumes. Since its establishment in 1954, Shandong Museum has been dedicated to the inheritance of Qilu culture, the promotion of public education and academic research, becoming one of the important bases for the inheritance and development of Confucian culture in China.
\nShandong Museum takes education as one of its core missions, and has launched a variety of educational activities, including thematic lectures, immersive experiences, and digital interactive study tours, to meet the needs of in-depth visits for visitors of different age groups.
\nIn the context of the integration of culture and tourism, Shandong Museum has constructed a new education model through cross-border cooperation, achieving a breakthrough in bringing museum education into people\u2019s daily lives.
