Lotuses bloom in Yongsheng County

The recent summer days saw large areas of lotuses flowering in the Sanchuan town, northwest Yunnan’s Yongsheng County.

Falling under the jurisdiction of Lijiang City, the town forms a major access for tourists from Sichuan and Chongqing to travel to the scenic landscapes in northwest Yunnan. 

In recent years, a lotus lake occupying hundreds of hectares were built by locals to draw in more visitors, with dining and entertaining facilities finished for tourists near the lotus pond.
