Quanlin Springs Scenic Area

　　The Quanlin Scenic Area gets its name from the gathering of numerous famous springs, densely clustered like a forest. In September 1998, it was designated as a provincial-level scenic spot by the People’s Government of Shandong Province, and in November 2008, it was rated as a National AAA-level Tourist Attraction by the Shandong Provincial Tourism Bureau. According to the 1888 "Sishui County Annals" from the Qing Dynasty, Quanlin boasts 72 named springs, dozens of major springs, and countless smaller ones. Confucius once stood at the foot of Peiwei Mountain and sighed with the timeless reflection, “Thus flows all things—ceaselessly day and night.” In 1684, Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty stayed at Quanlin and composed the renowned "Record of Quanlin." Emperor Qianlong had a particular fondness for Quanlin, visiting nine times and leaving behind a wealth of poetry and prose. The springs here maintain a constant temperature of 14–18°C year-round, with a flow rate of 1.35 cubic meters per second. The scenic area currently preserves multiple historical sites, including the ancient ruins of Bian City, the national cultural heritage site Bian Bridge, thousand-year-old ginkgo trees, the "Zi zai chuan shang chu" (Confucius by the Riverside) site, stone boats, imperial palaces, imperial bridges, and imperial steles.
