In today's video I go to Jinan. Jinan is the capitol city of Shandong Province here in China and its known as the Spring Water city with 72 natural water springs. I stayed at the Intercontinental Hotel in Jinan City Center which was centrally located in downtown Jinan close to all the action. Highly recommend if you are making a visit to Jinan.
