Tourists stroll and cycle around the spot, where limpid waters, lush mountains and blooming flowers combine in weaving a picturesque scene.
The delicate blossom seen floating there is Ottelia acuminata, an aquatic plant endemic to China, which is known to have extremely strict water quality requirements. It demands high water transparency, cleanliness and calcium content, and survives only in unpolluted waters, serving as a reliable natural indicator of aquatic ecological health.
Its large-scale revival vividly testifies to Erhai Lake's remarkable ecological restoration achievements.
China's Ecological and Environmental Code, enacted on Saturday, stipulates nationwide protection and restoration of river and lake ecosystems, providing solid legal support for systematic water ecological governance across the country.
As China advances its Beautiful China initiative, this code is expected to strengthen rule-of-law guarantees for ecological protection and provide fresh impetus for the country's green and low-carbon transition.
In the early 1990s, agricultural pollution worsened Erhai Lake's water quality, causing frequent blue-green algae outbreaks. A severe algae bloom hit the lake in 1996, leaving the water turbid and smelly. As the environment degraded, Ottelia acuminata nearly disappeared from the lake.
Thanks to years of targeted ecological protection and restoration efforts, the lake's water quality has improved steadily, maintaining an excellent Grade II standard from January to June 2026, and creating favorable conditions for the return of Ottelia acuminata.
Official data show that the plant's coverage on Erhai Lake has surged from 90,000 square meters in 2021 to 950,000 square meters in 2026, marking a remarkable ecological recovery.
The improved water environment has also brought tangible economic benefits, turning the lake's ecological advantages into a sustainable industry. From lake ecology to farm cultivation and consumer products, Ottelia acuminata's dual ecological and economic value has been fully realized.
In 2018, environmental worker Zhong Lan noticed the edible plant's great potential for water purification and industrial development. With support from local authorities and Shanghai Jiao Tong University in eastern China, she started a company and built a professional research base in 2024, developing standardized planting techniques that enable high-yield, repeated harvests and offering jobs for local villagers.
Villager Li Xinyuan, who quit Ottelia acuminata cultivation years ago due to low profits, resumed planting in 2023 and earns a stable monthly salary of 4,500 yuan (about 663 U.S. dollars) at the base.
His fellow villager Du Hongquan earned over 100,000 yuan last year from growing the plant and has more than doubled his planting area this year. "The base takes full charge of sales, so we can plant without any worries," Du said.
Eryuan County, the source of Erhai Lake, now has more than 200 hectares of Ottelia acuminata plantation area, creating numerous jobs yearly. The plant has been developed into a diverse range of products like tea, plant-based coffee and cookies.
"I used to think it was exclusive to Yunnan, but I can try it elsewhere too," said a tourist surnamed Ai after tasting the plant at a hotpot restaurant in Hangzhou, east China's Zhejiang Province.
The beautiful lakeside scenery at Erhai has also boosted local tourism. In 2025, Dali received over 120 million tourist visits, attracting visitors to enjoy lake views and experience local Bai ethnic culture, with 407,000 long-term visitors.
Last month, the State Council issued a plan for building a Beautiful China during the 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026-2030), setting out the overall requirements, targets, key tasks and major projects for comprehensively advancing this initiative.
According to the plan, China will achieve overall improvement in ecological and environmental quality and make significant progress toward building a Beautiful China by 2030, with green production and lifestyles largely established and the carbon peaking target reached on schedule.
。    週四上午，WNBA常規賽上演一場重頭戲，女武神主場迎戰天貓。兩隊近期連勝勢頭兇猛，各自具備足夠爭勝實力，這場榜首大戰誰能笑到最後？敬請各位拭目以待。
    
    　　彼此勢頭針鋒相對
    
    　　隨著上仗擊敗飛翼，女武神8月份以來6戰全勝，現已提前鎖定季後賽席位。天貓長時間雄踞榜首，上仗贏下與王牌的強強對話迎來四連勝，近15場贏下14場，穩定性可見一斑。
    
    　　基本數據不相伯仲
    
    　　女武神主場勝率78.9%，最近一波四連勝期間均場淨勝14分。留意官網數據，女武神均場失分和防守效率都是聯盟最佳，比天貓略勝一籌。天貓今季作客以15勝2負笑傲全聯盟；近6場全勝，均場淨勝10分，今鋪揮軍女武神的魔鬼主場毫無懼意。
    
    　　班底實力各有千秋
    
    　　儘管女武神沒有得分高手，不過包括嘉比威廉絲在內的多名主力能有均場至少8分的穩定輸出，團隊性拉滿。在納菲莎高妮亞此前長期傷缺的情況下，奧莉維婭米爾斯是天貓今季發揮最搶眼之人，此女乃最佳新秀大熱。全隊多達5人均場得分至少14分，核心球員實力上限高於女武神。

    　　對賽紀錄呈一面倒
    
    　　儘管上季至今6次交鋒女武神悉數輸給天貓，但前者現已具備打破被對方壓制的底氣。值得留意，天貓近2仗的末節得分都少於對手，這樣看起來並非不可戰勝。
    
    　　傷停情況
    
    　　女武神：I.路柏特因私人理由缺席；
    
    　　天貓：艾瑪捷奧娃養傷。
