　　Double lotus is a treasure among lotus flowers. It is very rare. We arranged security guards to be on duty for 24 hours. After the flowers were thanked, a pair of double lotus was produced. On July 26, the security guards discovered that the lotus was taken by a foreigner during the normal patrol. The tourists are uncivilized.　　

　　[Explanation] Subsequently, the law enforcement officers of the scenic spot criticized the tourist.

　　We also criticized and educated the tourist and imposed a 200 yuan (RMB) penalty on him in accordance with the Xuanwu Lake Scenic Area Protection Regulations. We also call on tourists to take good care of our ecological environment when visiting our Xuanwu Lake scenic area and conduct a civilized tour.

　　[Explanation] The reporter saw at the scene that only the withered stalks were left after the lotus plant was picked off by tourists. Many tourists expressed their views on this.

　　It is a pity! There is only one among hundreds of thousands of plants, which should be protected and cherished, because it is not found every year after all.

　　I saw the news about Bing Tilian on the Internet and found it to be very beautiful. I still navigated through it, but when I found out, I was still very sad.

　　[Explanation] In order to properly keep this strain of Dilian Peng, the scenic spot has taken corresponding protective measures.

　　[Concurrent] Qin Xiaobin, Secretary of the Party Committee of Nanjing Xuanwu Lake Park Management Office

　　This double lotus lotus is very beautiful and very rare. In the next step, we will find a professional organization to preserve this double lotus (lotus) for a long time. At the same time, we will also develop some cultural and creative products around the double lotus to make this lucky. Let this auspicious share with tourists.

　　[Explanation] The reporter learned from the scenic spot that on the same day, the staff also found a second double stalk lotus. This double stalk is near the Tailing flower shelf in Xuanwu Lake Park, Nanjing. The buds are still small and the expected flowering period is about 7 days. Nanjing Ming City Wall and Jiming Ancient Temple complement each other and are very enjoyable. To this end, the scenic spot has arranged security forces, strengthened 24-hour patrols and guards, and actively advocated civilized tours for tourists.
