Furong Street

Furong Street, also known as Lotus Street, is one of the most famous historical and cultural streets in Jinan, Shandong Province. Located in the heart of the city near Daming Lake and Baotu Spring, this 432-meter-long pedestrian street dates back to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). The street gets its name from the lotus flowers that once bloomed in the nearby ponds. Today, it preserves the architectural style of old Jinan with traditional courtyard houses, stone-paved paths, and ancient wells. The street is a living museum of Shandong culture, where visitors can experience authentic local cuisine, traditional crafts, and the daily life of Jinan residents. It perfectly represents the harmonious blend of history, culture, and modern tourism that characterizes this Spring City.
