On June 11, the lotus flowers in full bloom marked the start of the peak season for summer viewing at Liwan Lake Park in Guangzhou. Among the vibrant sea of lotus leaves, a rare twin lotus stole the show—two flowers on one stem, like celestial twins dancing on ripples. The extraordinary sight drew crowds of photography enthusiasts, eager to capture this natural wonder through their lenses.

6月11日，广州荔湾湖公园荷塘荷花竞相绽放，进入夏日最佳观赏期。一株罕见的并蒂莲在连片荷叶间脱颖而出，粉白双花同茎而生，宛若孪生仙子起舞，引得大批摄影爱好者架起“长枪短炮”，定格一茎双花奇观。
