The flower of summer

Which kind of flower would you choose to represent summer?

My choice is lotus.

I went to a theme park last Saturday, especially to see the lotus pond.

I was aiming to stroll in the park all day, and then watch the sunset by the lake next to the park. Eventually, I missed the sunset, but luckily, the lotus are blooming, and I enjoyed the time when I walked and played around the pond.

You can find the view of the lotus pond from this video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/r1N8oAtVLhw

I hope you can feel the fresh and fragrant air in the park like I did. That is an aroma that no perfume can replicate.


你会选择哪种花来代表夏天?

我会选荷花。

上周六我去了一个主题公园,特地去看了荷塘。

我打算在那个公园闲逛一整天,然后在公园旁的湖边看日落。最后,我错过了日落,但幸运的是,荷花在盛开,而我很享受在池塘边散步和玩耍的时光。

你可以在这个视频中看到荷塘的景色:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/r1N8oAtVLhw

真希望你能像我一样感觉到在那个公园里新鲜清香的空气。这种香气是任何香水都无法给予的。

"Played" sounds a little childish in English, not as common as 玩. There isn't a great substitute, so the most natural word choice would just be to omit it entirely, say only "I walked around the pond."

Feedback

Very well written, and the video is lovely!

There aren't many lotuses in my area, but I started watching Chinese dramas, and the lotus always reminds me of some characters. So now when I do see a lotus flower, it makes me happy. :)
