Baotu Spring Park - Part 1
This is the most famous set of springs in Jinan and are located in the centre of the city, across the road from Quancheng Square. The existence of the Baotu Spring has been dated back more than 3,500 years to the times of the Shang Dynasty. The spring is mentioned in the Spring and Autumn Annals, the official chronicle of the ancient State of Lu and one of the Five Classics of Chinese literature. The park is home to a cluster of about 20 named springs out of a total of 72 for which the city is famed. As well as the springs, there are a whole host of buildings including pavilions, halls and teahouses.
