Guangzhou Summer Exclusive | Complete Guide to Lotus Photography at Luoyong Park

The lotus flowers at Luoyong Park are in full bloom! With a 20,000-square-meter lotus pond and tens of thousands of lotus flowers competing to blossom, the park's arched bridges and pavilions perfectly complement the scenery, creating an enchanting ancient-style atmosphere.

The entire park is covered with layers of lotus leaves, showcasing pink and white lotus flowers standing gracefully. A vast "sea of lotus" unfolds before your eyes!

Featuring over 20 varieties of lotus and water lilies, the most stunning sight is the giant lotus flowers that reach up to 2 meters tall—an absolute visual spectacle! You'll also find tri-colored water lilies, ornamental lotus flowers, and edible lotus flowers. 🌺 Compared to crowded large parks, this location is more refined and tranquil, yet the scale and beauty of the lotus flowers are equally impressive. It's an ideal choice for a suburban getaway or a relaxing weekend in Guangzhou!

Photography Tips ⬇️
🔻 Visit between 7-10 AM or 4-5 PM for softer lighting.
🔻 The area opposite the arched bridge is better for photos; the bald cypress trees nearby have lotus flowers closer to the shore, perfect for close-ups.
🔻 There's a twin lotus flower in the center of the pond, but it's farther away, so you'll need a telephoto lens to capture it.
