Shandong has preserved the values of Confucianism. She highlighted how children in the province are taught the importance of humility from a young age through Confucius' quote - "two heads are always better than one." Yulia also noted that the warm hospitality of the local people can be traced back to another quote by Confucius - "it's a pleasure to have friends coming from afar."
