This mountain village, about an hour drive from downtown Guangzhou, is an ideal escape from the daily hustle and bustle.
With green lotus leaves swaying in the breeze, pink flowers, blue sky and white clouds form a colorful picture of the beautiful countryside. In the middle of the lotus field, there is also a footpath and a pavilion for tourists to rest, take photos and get a closer look.

The steam train tour around the lotus field is loved by parents and kids. In the sound of the whistle, the tour train filled with tourists slowly goes through the green lotus pond with dancing flowers.
