By the waterside of Shenshui, half is the Zen scent of lotus, half is a luxurious and elegant residence

When the midsummer breeze sweeps through the outskirts of Shenyang, the lotus flowers at Huilong Temple bloom like poetry, and the Haoze Ritz Hotel provides a gentle haven for this lotus-seeking journey. No need to chase the morning light, just slow down the pace and let Zen and luxury blend at this moment. Wake up in the soft bed of the hotel in the early morning, outside the floor-to-ceiling window is the rare quiet greenery of the city. Step into the restaurant, freshly baked croissants wrapped in the aroma of butter, paired with a cup of hand-brewed coffee, start a day full of anticipation. A drive of just over ten minutes brings you to Huilong Temple—green tiles and red walls reflect the lotus leaves reaching the sky, pink and white lotus flowers tremble gently in the breeze, and the moment dew drops fall on the petals, it feels as if time itself slows down. Choose a stone step to sit on, watch monks walk slowly along the lotus pond path, listen to the morning bell ringing in the distance, and with a gentle press of the shutter, capture this Zen moment of "lotus breeze sending fragrance, bamboo dew dripping clear sounds." Returning in the afternoon, the hotel's infinity pool reflects the blue sky and white clouds, soaking in the cool water to dispel the heat, or lie on a poolside chair reading a leisurely book, enjoying undisturbed comfort. In the evening, why not change into an exquisite dress and dine at the hotel's terrace restaurant? The chef carefully prepares Liaoning cuisine with innovative techniques; the signature sweet and sour pork is crispy on the outside and tender inside, paired with a glass of chilled fruit wine, and looking up you can see the dusk deepening and stars twinkling. If you want to capture more beautiful moments, you can take a set of ancient-style photos by the lotus pond in the early morning. The hotel’s customized travel photography service allows the green tiles, lotus flowers, and your smile to perfectly frame together; or in the evening at the hotel courtyard, use the warm yellow lighting as a backdrop to record warm moments with your loved one. Here, there is no need to travel far to enjoy the ideal vacation of "morning lotus viewing, afternoon leisure, and night under the stars." Shenyang’s summer is vibrant because of the lotus at Huilong Temple and complete with the companionship of Haoze Ritz.
