Is Daming Lake in Jinan fun?

Daming Lake is beautiful, wide and clear. Going to Daming Lake in summer is a good season to enjoy the lotus and is suitable for walking, but the scenery is average without lotus flowers. Tickets are a bit expensive. They were originally divided into paid scenic spots and non-paid scenic spots.

Walk into Daming Lake

As one of the three famous scenic spots in Jinan, it is a rare natural lake in a bustling city, known as the "Pearl of Spring City", located in the northeast of Jinan city center and the north of the old city. As early as the Tang and Song Dynasties, Daming Lake was famous for its breathtaking beauty. "The snake disappears, the frog doesn't sing, the rain doesn't rise for a long time, and the drought doesn't dry up" are the four monsters in Daming Lake. In 2009, Daming Lake was awarded the title of "The First Spring Lake in China" by world record association, China. Daming Lake is located in the center of Jinan, north of the old city. Together with Baotu Spring and Qianfo Mountain, it is called the Three Scenes of Jinan. Jinan is known as the "spring city", with more than 100 spring eyes, including 72 famous springs. Minghu Lake is a natural lake formed by the confluence of springs. Spring water flows in from the south bank, and when it is full, it flows out from the North Watergate built on the north bank. The bottom of the lake is composed of impervious igneous rocks, so the lake "keeps the rain from rising, and it will not dry up after a long drought" and maintains a relatively fixed water level all the year round. The park covers an area of 86 hectares, including 46 hectares of lakes. There are six islands on the lake, such as Lixia Pavilion, Huiquan Hall and Huxin Island. The natural landscape of the park is beautiful and pleasant. The lake is sparkling, kites are flying, fish are jumping and cruise ships are passing by. Since ancient times, Daming Lake has been full of lotus flowers, weeping willows and lush flowers and trees. "Lotus on four sides and willow on three sides, a city with mountains and half a city" is the best portrayal of her scenery. The human landscape of the park is very rich. More than 30 places of interest, such as Lixia Pavilion, Tiegong Temple, Nanfeng Temple and Arctic Temple, are hidden among trees and flowers, showing a long history and culture.
