Diverse flowers alongside Fuxian Lake are still blooming in early autumn. Sunlight traveling through thick clouds shines on the lake as if glistening stars fell into the water.

Fuxian Lake in Chengjiang City, southwest China's Yunnan Province, is the second deepest freshwater lake in the country. The deepest part reaches 158.9 meters.
