Solitary Mountain's rain-drenched lotus scenery

Sharing the latest lotus 'intelligence' from Hangzhou, the lotuses in Solitary Mountain Park have bloomed, but for now, most are just 'young lotuses showing their sharp tips'. Amidst the verdant green, the red buds that are revealed carry a sense of freshness and delicate beauty. It is estimated that a large area will bloom around mid-July. From Xiling Bridge to the Zhongshan Memorial Pavilion, the entire lakeside bay is densely packed with lotuses, and moreover, they are of excellent variety, known as the 'West Lake Red Lotus', with large flowers that are particularly valuable for viewing. The fine rain is like a woven curtain, strolling along Solitary Mountain Road, the winding North Mountain Street unfolds before your eyes. A gentle breeze lightly brushes over the emerald lotus leaves, like a soft whispering chant, adding a touch of tenderness and haziness to this summer lotus pond. The rain grows heavier, and the crystal-clear raindrops dance and converge on the broad lotus leaves, eventually sliding off gently, dropping into the water, and stirring up circle after circle of delicate ripples. The lotuses in the rain, without the flamboyance of the bright sun, possess a unique tranquility and elegance in the rain, refreshing the mind and spirit, making one forget the worldly noise. This soft rain, bringing not only the freshness of summer but also the romance within the verdure.
