濟(jì)南是一個富有古典氣質(zhì)的城市,有著詩意的朦朧和詩人的憧憬。濟(jì)南有水這是不消說的,就先拿濟(jì)南的山而言吧,老舍先生曾說過:“濟(jì)南像是個嬰兒一樣躺在搖籃里,只有北面有一個缺口,這在數(shù)量上便已經(jīng)有了基礎(chǔ),再看濟(jì)南的山,不像是橫斷山去那想的險惡,沒有崢嶸的刺破霄漢的氣勢,但卻有一種別致與秀麗在里面,山抱著水水繞著山,一切都是那么的溫文爾雅,像是君子,也似小家碧玉的女子,不是那么顯露鋒芒。也幸虧濟(jì)南沒有這樣巍峨的山,要不環(huán)顧四周總是有一種壓迫的感覺,茫然若有所失,豈不是反而不好!所以大自然的鬼斧神工便造就了這樣一個鐘靈毓秀的地方?!?/p>
濟(jì)南的水,更是給這樣一個北方的城市平添了一絲江南的感覺,但卻又不失特色。家家泉水,戶戶垂楊,青石板上滋滋地冒著泉水。那些古人留下的詩句不禁把人們的思緒牽引到遙遠(yuǎn)的時代,沉浸在美好的光景之中。所以不需要多想,只是跟著這古老的詩句,輕輕撫摸著古老的街巷,任時間的年輪把人帶回遙遠(yuǎn)的國度,你就會發(fā)現(xiàn)你也會作幾首詩,吟唱幾首曲子。落雨時節(jié),去湖上泛舟,置身雨霧冥迷之中,看錦鱗時隱時現(xiàn)在陣陣漣漪之中,又如何不想放歌!
近年來,濟(jì)南按照“維護(hù)省城穩(wěn)定,發(fā)展省會經(jīng)濟(jì),建設(shè)美麗泉城”的總體思路,搶抓機(jī)遇,開拓進(jìn)取,努力開創(chuàng)各項工作的新局面,一座嶄新的泉水之都、活力新城、和諧濟(jì)南,正展現(xiàn)在世人面前。
