An antique-style, courtyard-based commercial district east of Quancheng Square and a landmark of Jinan's night economy. Lantern-lined lanes, bars, time-honored Shandong-cuisine restaurants, and creative shops mix together; the district retains some old courtyards and ancient trees. Its name comes from Kuanhousuo Street, said to be named for the locals' generous folk customs in the Qing dynasty (according to records). Separated from Black Tiger Spring and Jiefang Pavilion by just one street, it forms the golden triangle of the ancient city's spring night tours, liveliest after the lanterns light up in the evening.
Getting there: Bus, Quancheng Square stop
