Baotu Spring Park

📷📷📷 Baotu Spring, this famous spring site located in Jinan, Shandong, really made me linger and forget to return. The scenery there is picturesque, and every drop of water seems to contain a thousand years of stories. 👀👀 The moment I stepped into Baotu Spring Park, I was surrounded by the rich greenery. Walking on the bluestone paths, it's as if I could hear the echoes of history, and each stone has witnessed countless years passing by. ⛲️⛲️ The three streams of Baotu Spring, like three blooming white lotuses, are tumbling and leaping, continuously gushing out. The spring water is so clear that it seems to wash away all the dust and fatigue. I squatted by the spring, quietly watching the water surge out, feeling its vitality and vigor. In addition to the springs, other attractions in Baotu Spring Park are also eye-catching. For example, those ancient pavilions and towers, each with its unique story. And the garden full of green trees and red flowers makes one feel as if they are in a paradise. During the visit, I also tasted the local specialties, and the flavors of those delicacies are still memorable to this day. This trip to Baotu Spring has deeply made me feel the magic and beauty of nature. I think this is the meaning of travel, to step out of our familiar environment and explore those unknown beauties.

#chinatrip This is the Baotu Spring Park located in Jinan, Shandong, China. It is mentioned in the Spring and Autumn Annals, one of the Five Classics of Chinese literature, and was declared the "Number One Spring under the Heaven". The spring pool of the Baotu Spring is fed by an underwater limestone water through three outlets; the volume of the water coming out of the spring can reach peak values up to 1.6 cubic metres per second. The water jets from the spring are said to have reached highs up to 26 metres. The place looks gorgeous. Worth a visit!

The first sight of Baotu Spring is just green and damp, a vision filled with greenery and water. By noon, as the sunlight pours down and the crowd becomes lively, the dampness fades away with the feeling, leaving behind green and clarity. This clarity is truly crystal clear, making one linger and forget to return. 🌿 · Spring water gushes out from the underground limestone caves, with 70,000 cubic meters of spring water emerging daily. The spring has three outlets, with the maximum flow reaching 162,000 cubic meters per day. The temperature of Baotu Spring water remains around 18°C throughout the year. · Legend has it that Emperor Qianlong, during his southern tour, found the tea made with Baotu Spring water so mellow and sweet that he bestowed upon it the title 'The Number One Spring in the World'. · Surrounding Baotu Spring are notable historical sites worth visiting, such as Luoyuan Hall, Guanlan Pavilion, Shangzhi Hall, Li Qingzhao Memorial Hall, and Li Kuchan Memorial Museum. I particularly like the Li Qingzhao Memorial Hall, and it was only upon visiting that I realized Li Qingzhao was from Jinan.

Revisiting Baotu Spring on a spring day, I explore the beauty of the city of springs. The morning sun shines on the land of Jinan, and with anticipation for the scenic beauty of the city of springs, I first set foot on the renowned Baotu Spring. The spring water gushes, as if singing a hymn to nature, adding vitality and vigor to this spring. Then, I strolled to Wulongtan Park to experience the unique beauty of the lake and mountains. Continuing along Qu Shui Ting Street, the ancient streets and alleys exude an old-world charm, as if time has reversed, taking me back to a distant era. The tranquility of Zhenzhu Spring and the exuberance of Heihu Spring weave together before my eyes into a beautiful tapestry. The afternoon sun grows even more brilliant, and I wander through Quancheng Square, feeling the pulse of the city. Unexpectedly, at the end of the day's journey, I find myself back at the gates of Baotu Spring. With time to spare, why not re-enter this verdant world? In the afternoon, the Baotu Spring under the sunlight appears even more clear and aqua green, with sparkling ripples. The lively spring water seems to be telling the story of Jinan. Once again, I immerse myself in this tranquility and beauty, enjoying the gifts of nature. Today's journey has allowed me to appreciate the scenery of the city of springs and to feel the charm of nature. May every trip bring me more beauty and insight.

Listening to the gurgling sound of the spring water is very healing. As a famous tourist spot in Jinan, Baotu Spring is a place where everyone must check in. Recently, the water volume is large, and you can clearly hear the sound of the spring water bubbling. When Emperor Qianlong made a southern tour, he brewed tea with Baotu Spring water because of its mellow and sweet taste, and he conferred Baotu Spring as the 'First Spring under Heaven'. There are also stories about the summer lotus on the bank of Daming Lake. The internet is heatedly discussing the cold wave in Jinan, wondering if it will freeze Baotu Spring. However, it is still exuding a fairy-like aura, with chubby fish leaping over the dragon gate. Jinan at this moment is a romantic Jinan.
