Rebirth of Jinan - An old Commercial City

Jinan is an old commercial city that is filled with the charm of the architecture of the Republic of China and a combination of Chinese and Western styles. Rows of Chinese Parasol Trees between longitude and latitude witness the romance of old Jinan.

In recent years, with romantic elements such as Rose Waterfall and Hearts Crosswalk becoming popular, the old commercial city has returned to the public eye and is gaining new life in its own way.

In the old commercial city, you can see a blend of Chinese and Western culture and also witness the century-old openness and prosperity of Jinan.

The Grand View Garden shines brightly with the oil-paper umbrellas and Chinese-style lanterns. The buildings built in the Republican Period and the modern customs blend together to create a dazzling atmosphere in the old commercial city. Cross talk is hilarious, and the performances of street artists are intoxicating. Following the shouts of street vendors, it feels as if we are back in old Jinan, more than a hundred years ago.

Relying on the characteristics of old buildings, such as Rose Waterfall, Hearts Crosswalk, Sandwich Alleyway, Giant Rose Bear, and Cupid Wall, integrate elements such as love and roses that can be seen everywhere in the old commercial city, creating a full romantic atmosphere and becoming a new symbol of internet celebrity in Jinan. The current activity and past bustling blend together, and a revitalized old commercial port is thriving with new vitality.

Jinan is not the only city famous for its commercial culture. There are other places that have their own unique commercial cultures. For Jinan, commercial culture is an important component of its historical and cultural context. This is the history and spirit of Jinan.

The wheels of history roll forward, and although the stories and scenes shrouded in light and shadow pass by in the long river of time, the symbols representing old Jinan gradually regain their true meaning in the ever-changing trend of the times. The architectural culture, commercial culture, and life philosophy extended from the commercial port culture have also influenced people's lives to this day.
