Jinan hosts intl conference on spring cultural landscape


More than 150 overseas representatives from member cities of the International City Alliance of Springs Cultural Landscape, as well as experts, researchers, entrepreneurs, foreign journalists, and Jinan government officials, attended the conference, sharing their experiences in developing and protecting spring cultural landscapes.
Mehmet Oktay, mayor of Marmaris in Turkey, said that the city signed a three-year memorandum of cooperation with Jinan to improve bilateral relations, and he expects further cooperation with Jinan in terms of cultural heritage, the environment, business, culture, arts and education to be agreed on during the conference.
Rick Jennings of the Sacramento City Council in the United States commended the rapid development he saw during his recent visit to Jinan and hoped to learn from the city's successfull experience. The city councillor particularly enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere of Baotu Spring Park and the obvious pride locals took in their city, which is something Sacramento residents can strongly relate to.
