In the villages of Longchuan County, Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture, looking from a distance, emerald lotus leaves look like a delicate umbrella. Floating on the water or standing above the waves of green leaves, lotus flowers bloom one by one, some still in bud and others in full bloom. The refreshing fragrance of lotus comes with the wind, bringing a sense of tranquility and joy.

Pink and delicate lotus flowers stand out among lush green leaves, evoking a feeling of love and compassion. A gentle breeze with a subtle and elegant fragrance, dissipates the restlessness brought by the summer heat.

Lotus flowers are hidden in the villages of Longchuan. You may come across a lotus at some unexpected roadside, which will be a wonderful surprise for summer. Come and appreciate charming lotuses this summer! (Editors: Ines, Lexi)
