The romance of Xuanwu Lake in winter is absolutely stunning! The sunlight fills the lake surface, breathtakingly beautiful

Winter exclusive! Who truly understands the romance of Xuanwu Lake! 😍 💫 Who in Nanjing hasn’t basked in the warm winter sun at Xuanwu Lake? The shimmering lake surface really leaves you speechless with its healing beauty~ ✨ The midday sun just slants perfectly on the lake surface, the sparkling waves break into pieces of golden foil💎 and sway with the breeze. No wonder the ancients said "floating light leaps like gold." You have to see it with your own eyes to understand how stunning it is! 🌿 Without the summer crowds, only a few people stroll by the lake. Withered lotus stems faintly visible in the golden light, the outline of the ancient city wall in the distance is gentle and clear. Every snap feels like a photo with a built-in soft light filter📸 🚶‍♀️ Walk slowly along the lakeside boardwalk, the warm sun wrapped in the crisp lake breeze blows on your face, not cold but very comfortable. Occasionally stepping on dry fallen leaves🍂, with the sound of the wind and distant birdsong🐦 in your ears. No need to rush, no need to think about trivial matters, just quietly feel the warmth of the sunlight on your body☀️ even the gloom in your heart is scattered by the sun~ 🛶 When tired, find a bench by the lake to sit on, bask in the sun and daydream, watch boats glide across the golden lake surface, leaving ripples behind. Life moves at just the right slow pace⏳ 📍Address: No. 1 Xuanwu Lane, Xuanwu District, Nanjing 🎫Admission: Free 🕒Opening Hours: Open all day 🌤️Best Viewing Time: 10:00-15:00 (best sunlight)
