Take bus k202 and get off at the next stop of Qianfoshan. It will be a lot closer. It takes 6 minutes to walk. There are not many people. After entering, I found that there is a ropeway. 28 yuan per person. Because there are more mountains to climb, I don't think there is any need to sit, so I walked all the way. It took about 50 minutes. The top is not bad, the wind is a bit big, it will be cold after a long time. 15 minutes down the mountain. Very fast.
It is worth coming. There are many places to visit halfway up the mountain, you can play, or go directly to the top of the mountain to watch the sunset, which is beautiful. You can see the city and mountain views of Jinan. The big Buddha under the mountain is quite shocking whether it is looking at it in the distance or close. Although there is no specific belief, it is still awe-inspiring when it comes to the front.
