Black Tiger Spring, Artesian karst spring in Jinan, China.
Water emerges from a limestone cave through three stone-carved tiger heads, flowing into a square pool before reaching the old city canal.
Ming Dynasty poet Yan Bizeng documented the spring in his works, establishing its significance as a cultural monument in Chinese literature.
Local residents gather at the spring pool to collect water while sharing stories about emperors who visited this natural water source.
The spring produces up to 410,000 cubic meters of water daily and remains open to the public without entrance fees throughout the year.
The water striking against rocks inside the cave generates sounds similar to tiger roars, which contributed to naming this natural formation.
