The thousand-acre lotus pond in Xinjin is in bloom
Don't just think of the Cultural Park when you want to see lotus flowers!
The thousand-acre lotus pond in Xinjin has few people, it has just opened and is waiting for you to take pictures!
Corridors, pavilions, thatched cottages, arch bridges, artificial moons, large water wheels.....
Doesn't each scene deeply capture your heart?
There are white, off-white, pink, and dark pink varieties of lotus flowers. To take pictures of all of them, walking and stopping, it would take at least two hours!
If you don't want to walk, you can also take a boat.
If you just want to experience the boat ride, you can choose a boat ticket for 20 yuan per person (20 minutes).
If you think that's too short, you can row a black-awning boat yourself for 80 yuan per hour, or have a boatman row for you for 100 yuan per hour.
Besides the beautiful lotus flowers, there are also delicious and cheap foods here! Handmade ice jelly for 5 yuan, noodles for 7 yuan, corn grown by local villagers for 1 yuan each,
strangely shaped but richly flavored tomatoes for 3 yuan per half kilo. There's also a plum picking garden nearby, 19.9 yuan for one adult and one child to pick.
