Shortly after the beginning of summer (a solar term) on 6 May, lotuses are protruding from leaves in stretches in limpid water of the Longhong Stream Scenic Area, despite lotus leaves in West Lake just emerging from water. Such watery sites around West Lake allow a rejoicing view as Guozhuang, Changqiao Park, Huapu, Hangzhou Botanical Garden, Maojiabu, and Yuhu Bay.
