The Chongyuan Temple located on the Yangcheng Lake Peninsula is also a good place to enjoy lotus flowers in summer.
The temple is surrounded by lotus flowers. An aerial photo shows the temple is like a huge lotus flower lying in a lotus pond. The unique landscape here embodies the Buddhist culture, because the lotus flower is a symbol of spiritual awakening, purity and faithfulness in Buddhism.
Walking around the lotus flowers or sitting near them to enjoy a cup of coffee make people feel peaceful and free from the secularity.
