On August 27, 2024, the Academy of Tourism under “Silk Road” International University of Tourism and Cultural Heritage hosted the opening ceremony of the first International Shandong Window as well as the Oriental Cinema Window in Uzbekistan, which will further promote cultural cooperation and dialogue between the peoples of China and Uzbekistan.

This cultural institution is to promote sincere interaction and cooperation in research, education, exchange of experience, information and knowledge related to World Heritage.

The initiators of this project are Shandong Provincial Foreign Affairs Office, Qingdao University and “Silk Road” International University of Tourism and Cultural Heritage.
