Did you know that the lotus flower is more than just a pretty face? 🌸 In China, this amazing plant has been part of the diet for thousands of years, and it seems to grow wherever there's water! 💧
We recently journeyed to the serene Honghu Lake to meet a family that's been cultivating lotuses for generations. 👨🌾👩🌾 Their connection to the lotus runs deep, and they showed us how this beautiful flower goes from the field to the dining table. 🍽️
Life by the lakeside is something truly special. The rhythms of nature, the traditions passed down, and the delicious meals made from lotus—they all paint a picture of a way of life that's both timeless and very much alive today. 🏞️🌿
Join us on this adventure with reporter Morag Hobbs in the new CGTN series, \"Eyes over Hubei.\" 📺 Follow along as we navigate the twists and turns of the majestic Yangtze River, exploring the breathtaking landscapes and rich culture of Hubei Province. 🛶✨
Whether you're a foodie looking for new tastes, a traveler seeking unique destinations, or just someone curious about different ways of life, this journey into the heart of China's lotus traditions is not to be missed! 🌍❤️
