For 16 years, celebrating the opening of thousands of lotuses at the Old Summer Palace has been a summer treat for people in Beijing city. Throughout July and August, the park features a green and pink backdrop for a series of programs, including dancing and singing as lotus carnival launches its first music festival. Pop singers and local bands perform along the bank of the lakes in the garden while visitors enjoy boating in a sea of lotus.
