Hidden in the northern foothills of Mount Tai and south of Jinan, the Jiuru Mountain Art Village boasts a forest coverage rate of over 97%. It is a comprehensive leisure and holiday resort integrating sightseeing, entertainment, and vacationing. With its overlapping peaks, lush forests, cascading waterfalls, and crisscrossing streams, it's an ideal place to get close to nature and unwind.
