This photo shows a large ancient lotus taken from above at an angle so that the yellow part in the middle is slightly visible. Ancient Lotus Village, located in Gyoda City, Saitama Prefecture, is known as a beautiful sightseeing spot with ancient lotuses all around. The place is filled with ancient lotus flowers that have been in bloom for about 1,400 years, offering healing and inspiration to visitors. In particular, by visiting in the early morning hours, visitors can enjoy the fantastic sight of the pink petals shining transparently in the soft light of the sun. Ancient Lotus Village is a special place where lotus ponds spread over a vast area, harmonizing the beauty of the flowers with the view reflected on the surface of the water. When the light red petals are illuminated by the morning sun, their delicate beauty is even more striking. Because the lotus petals begin to open early in the morning, the cool morning hours are the best time to view and photograph the lotus flowers. Visitors can spend a relaxing time strolling along the promenade surrounding the lotus pond, enjoying the sound of the petals swaying in the wind and the fragrance of the flowers.
