A Spring Sprung
Jinan is known for its springs and one morning we all got to go to a park with well-known springs. It was very busy there. Like every park that I have been to in China, interesting activities are happening. At this spring there was a man writing calligraphy on the pavement.It seems that here, keeping the old arts alive is very important. Calligraphy is very respected and is still taught in school.
Also, for some reason still unknown to me, there were seals in one of the springs.
Besides seals, a lot of the ponds were full of fish.
After wandering around a bit, I came across a bridge and there was a group of men playing musical instruments. Most were traditional but one guy was playing a saw. He played it really well, too.
