Who knows! The sunny day I missed in Dali during summer vacation finally met me at East Lake in Wuhan!! At this season, cycling in the Luoyan Scenic Area of East Lake really feels like Erhai Lake! I encountered two tall and vibrant phoenix trees. The bright sunlight shines on the phoenix tree leaves, making them sparkle. The colorful phoenix leaves are so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off them. I stumbled upon a newly opened light meal shop. A cup of coffee ☕️ + snacks (delicious and affordable) + great for photos. There’s also a hidden spot at East Lake where you can see Huxin Island and Zou Ren Qi Bird Island. At dusk and sunrise, you can capture stunning shots of cormorants flying!! Sitting on a swing like the ones at Erhai Lake is truly healing. Just like that, freely zoning out and enjoying the beauty of autumn. The grand autumn is embodied here at East Lake!!
