In this photo, I found a beautifully shaped Ooga lotus and photographed it from right beside it, capturing its delicate form. I am conscious of the viewpoint from which the elegance of the petals stands out. Koga Koukata Park is a nature-rich park located in Koga City, Ibaraki Prefecture, and is popular among many people for its beautiful scenery and historical background. One of the park's representative attractions is the Ooga Lotus, which is at its best in the summer season. The Ooga lotus blooms brilliantly in the sunlight and attracts visitors with its reflection on the surface of the water. The soft hues of the petals and the shadows cast on the surface of the water create a special harmony between history and nature. The Ooga lotus in Furukawa Kouhou Park begins blooming in the morning and reaches its peak of beauty during the daytime. If you visit, the cool morning hours are especially recommended. There is a walking trail around the pond where the Ooga lotus is at its best, allowing visitors to observe the delicate petals and vivid foliage up close. Visitors can also enjoy the reflection of the flowers on the surface of the water and the actual flowers together, which is a moving experience for visitors.
