On August 23, during the “Chushu” season (End of Heat) according to the Chinese agricultural calendar, the waters of Donghu Lake in Wuhan sparkle turquoise, and the scent of lotus fills the air. The Donghu Lake National Ecotourism Park covers an area of over 80 square kilometers, with a water surface area of 33 square kilometers. Hundreds of kilometers of bike paths, like emerald ribbons, connect picturesque zones such as Tingtao, Moshan, and Loyang, revealing the magnificent beauty of the lake landscapes in all their glory.

Since the beginning of the summer holidays, Donghu Lake consistently receives a record number of visitors. The dense thickets of blooming lotus and its sweet aroma attract city residents and tourists for strolls along the shore, where they can enjoy the charm of the lotus in the evening breeze.
