Reviews from Real Guests:
Trip.com User: The Baotu spring was like a lovely Chinese garden with the added feature of a spring. Daming Lake was less crowded and larger, but the spring was still a lovely place to visit. The kids enjoyed the animation of the emporer visiting the spring. After the park across the road had some lovely scenery (note the photo with boat) and a great range of sculptures that were fun for the kids.
Trip.com User: We spend a pleasant afternoon at this park last weekend. Read about the history of the hot water spring and walked around the amazing landscaped area. Small nooks and corners hidden away in the garden, beautiful walkways and of course the hot spring itself... Wished we could have spend more time there, but the light rain became harder and we had to leave reluctantly

Thousand Buddhas Mountain lies to the south of downtown Jinan. The mountain, Baotu Spring, and Daming Lake are collectively known as "Jinan's Three Great Scenic Spots." Thousand Buddhas Mountain lies on a branch of Taishan. Despite not being a very high mountain, it has undulating ridges and peaks and luxuriant forests. It derives its name from its many stone-carved Buddhas. You can enter the Wanfo(10,000 Buddhas) Cave to investigate this secret realm of nearly 30,000 carved Buddhas; alternatively, you can go to pray at Xingguo Temple. From the peak you can enjoy picturesque views of the whole of Jinan city.

Trip.com User: Looking down from the mountain, you can see the whole city. If you are interested in climbing mountain, this mountain is your first choice. When you are standing on the top of the mountain, you would see the whole city. Thank "Visit Jinan 济南" for letting me know this great place. And all kinds of Buddhas are everywhere. Also there are many stone statues.
Trip.com User: An awesome climb to the mountaintop giving a great view of the city. A calm and peaceful Buddha temple (operational) where we prayed for our sons success. Beautiful scenery all through and the final view of the grand huge Buddha on the other side, sitting with rosary beads on hand and overlooking mankind doing the rat race....!
