Must-see Jinan site, this famous park contains gardens, pavilions, a bizarre imitation cave with neon-lit Buddha art, an enormous golden Buddha, statues, the Shandong Revolutionary Martyr's Cemetery for the Revolution of 1911, and temples containing the ancient Buddha statues set into stone grottoes. The top of the hill has an impressive view over the city.
泉城公园 or Spring City Park
A large public park to the south of Jinan city centre and west of Qianfu Mountain. Paths lead through the densely planted park and around a central pond that contains swan-shaped boats that may be rented. A small children's amusement park stands beside the pond. At the eastern end is a small museum of ancient jades containing interesting examples from most Chinese dynasties (you may need to find an employee to ask them to unlock the door for you).

Li Mountain
It is one of the three major scenic spots in Jinan and used to be known as Lishan. During the reign of Emperor Kaihuang of the Sui Dynasty (581-600 AD), due to the prevalence of Buddhism, thousands of Buddha statues were carved along the mountain terrain, hence the name Qianfo Mountain.
