The Olympic torch relay in Jinan is the last leg of the sacred Olympic flame's tour in the province.

The relay kicked off in Shandong Monday and went through Qingdao, Linyi, Qufu and Tai'an in the previous two days.

A total of 832 torchbearers participated in the relay in Shandong.

The torch will then leave for central province of Henan.
