Yes!! The Lotus are already in Full Bloom but get here at 6 AM to actually see them open!! The flowers are only open in full splendor from 6-8 AM!! But it is the largest Lotus garden in TOKYO and a must see!!
"I love the Lotus because although growing from mud, it is unstained" says Confucian wisdom! Holy flower for Buddhists & Hindu, today I came to the infamous UENO TOKYO Shinobazu Pond full of LOTUS in bloom NOW! Amazingly, 1300 years old seeds found in a dry lakebed in North China sprouted, so it can preserve itself over extreme long periods!! Other fun fact, not only beautiful but Lotus is all edible! Flower petals for tea or decoration in food, Roots can be pickled or boiled and parts of many dishes in Asian cuisine, or fried like potato chips, the Leaves are used to wrap food in them. The Seeds can be popped like popcorn! Or boiled soft and made into paste with sugar and used as filling in cakes! A rarity only available at the infamous Lake Inle in Myanmar, the lotus plant fiber is woven to produce robes for Buddhist statues ! Lotus buds are so cute too!!
