Where Summer Dances on Lotus Pads – West Lake’s Fragrant Aquatic Ballet"

#chinatravel In this Song dynasty-born garden, a thousand lotus leaves tremble like jade saucers, while pink blossoms rise like ballerinas on tiptoe—all choreographed by the same breezes that once inspired emperors to compose poetry over wine. ✔ UNMISSABLE MOMENTS → "Lotus Drunk" Pavilion– Where Southern Song officials sampled wines infused with floral pollen → Dawn Mist Walk – Watch the lake "roll up its silver carpet" as sun burns off fog → Hidden Boardwalk – A zigzag path that makes you walk on water through the blooms 📍 Location: Northwest West Lake (near Yue Fei’s Temple)
