Daming Lake

Hailed as the "Pearl of the City of Springs", the Daming Lake is the largest lake in Jinan, capital of east China’s Shandong Province, and one of city's main natural and cultural landmarks. Located to the north of the historical city center, the lake is fed by the artesian karst springs of the area and hence retains a fairly constant water level throughout the entire year. Covering an area of 57 hectares, the lake is picturesque, with a number of ancient temples and houses surrounding it, making it a national tourist resort.
