This has to be the must-visit place when in Jinan. We only spent a couple of hours walking around the lake and just covered about half of this whole place. Absolutely beautiful all around! Seemed like this lake area took up half of the old city surrounded by the moat.

The Qianfoshan (Thousand Buddha Mountain), is Jinan’s largest downtown park. The mountain includes about 130 Buddha statues carved during the Sui Dynasty (581-618 AD), a Ten Thousand Buddha Cave at the foot of the northern slope, and other statues and buildings from 2,000 years ago. The big golden statue of Buddha is beautiful and the mountain is an awesome place to take panoramic views of Jinan, especially at sunset. The climb up takes about 30 minutes walking. There is also an option of taking a bus or cable car. The Confucius Restaurant at Qianfoshan provides excellent vegan and non-vegan food as well as tea, wine, and beer and its right at the entrance of the park.

We passed through this city on our road trip and decided to stop by and see the Ancient City. Zibo the city itself didn’t seem to have much to offer for an overnight so we just visited this place. Entry was 60 per adult, half priced for kids above 1.4m and free for kids below 1.4m. The ticket price covered entry to all the museums but not activities/ experiences (like pony rides). The museums were interesting as they reflected the rich era of Zhoucun, a former central trading hub. It was once so prosperous, there were foreign businesses there such as Japanese silk stores and a Kent-Hilton tobacco store there! I had expected to see actual dye process taking place at the “dye factory” but there’s no more production at this place. There’s only museums. Tip: I would suggest you eat before coming. I ordered two different flavored beef noodle soup. Both came and taste the same hahaha. If you do need to eat, order handmade dumplings. Almost all the sit-down shops has them and they’re cheap but very delicious. A plate by itself is a mains.
