Emperor QianLong thought the Pearl Spring even surpasses Baotu Spring. He wrote the poem; "Jinan has famous springs, grand mountains and clear water but which is the best?”. Baotu is rich in resources. The pearl forms naturally, creating an immortal area. There are 72 outstanding crowns and includes the Daming Lake. The general idea of this poem is that the Pearl Spring and Baotu Spring are the best in the Jinan 72 springs. But Baotu Spring reveals slight artificial trace whereas the Pearl Spring is completely natural with true colors.
The Pearl Spring pond assumes the rectangle shape with an area amounting to 1,240 square meters. It is equipped with white marble carving hurdles all around. There are many opening from the springs with the string silver blister turn from under the water. Flowers and plants were planted around the Pearl Spring and a pavilion was constructed with rock and stone bridge. The scenery is extremely exquisite.
