Tourists turn ancient spring in Jinan into feet-washing basin (1/5)

Visitors soak their feet into “Jiunv Spring (nine maids’ spring)” in Jinan, Shandong province on June 29, 2014 to beat summer heat. With a history of over 300 years, the spring represents one of the “72 famous springs” in Jinan. Though officials of the municipality have issued a regulation banning people from soaking feet, swimming or washing clothes in the city’s springs, visitors still keep putting feet into spring water amid the scorching weather.
