The Taichung World Flora Exposition opened on November 3, 2018, and will end on April 24, 2019. The number of visitors has already reached a record high, with over 700 thousand people visiting. In addition to enjoying the flowers, sun, and day-time fragrances, the evening art scene has also been well received by the public. Taichung City Government indicated that the gardens, pavilions, and installation art of the flora parks were designed to correspond to artistic themes and showcase the brilliant dialogue between lights and flowers by presenting a unique nightly flora exhibition. Opening at 4 PM, the entry fee for the Starlight Ticket is NT$150.
Taichung City Government indicated that the nighttime exposition held at the three major parks each have their own stylistic brilliance. The Harvest Blessings Pavilion, Bamboo Structure Dining Area, public buildings, and other structures at Waipu Park become radiant with light embellishments at night and attract many visitors and photographers. The theme of the waterfront corridor at the 5th zone of Fengyuan Huludun Park is waterfront ecological flowers. Take a stroll along the river to relax, enjoy the beauty, and forget about worries.
As an added attraction, international lighting master, Lien Chou, who designed lighting for famous attractions such as the Statue of Liberty in the United States, was invited to help design the night lights at Houli Forest Park, Houli Horse Ranch Park, and Fengyuan zones 1 and 4. After sunset, the 1.2 kilometer Huama Road in Houli Park starts to light up. The lighting in the park perfectly illuminates the Flower Trail and Flower Bud Elevators to showcase the architecture and flowers in the park. Different from the excitement of the Flora Exposition during day time, nighttime scenery presents a romantic and mystical atmosphere. The lights also illuminate the two circular buildings of the Blossom Pavilion in Houli Horse Ranch Park, showcasing their curved surfaces. Lights are also used to create a visual image at the outdoor shelter and ticket booth depicting stars in the sky. The longest paper cutting rendition in the nation (made of iron) highlights Happy Moments for People and Nature Together, with the vibrant color of red representing happiness.
In addition, solar powered lighting is used to illuminate A Family of Four, a themed building in Houli Forest Park, with a lamp in front that emanates a warm lodge atmosphere. The wrapping art installation, called A Seed from the Sky, was made using nearly a hundred curved staffs of bamboo, with projection lights to create a sense of floating. There is also a bamboo shed exhibition named Lipahak that features rich light projection, as well as a large art installation titled Listen to the Sounds of Flowers.
The Purple Reflection Forest, Glamorous Forest, Sound of Nature Forest, and Romantic Forest in zones 1 to 4 of Fengyuan Huludun Park are even prettier at night, enabling people to sense the dialogue between light aesthetics and flower art.
"Everything is so beautiful!", Ms. Liao from Taichung remarked, saying that unlike the crowded noise during the day, the entire forest park quiets down at night, making it perfect for a leisurely stroll to enjoy the breeze. "The various lighting art installations are so beautiful under the glittering stars of the night."
Mr. Chen from Tainan felt that the Flora Exposition has different features during the day and at night. He preferred to buy the Starlight Ticket. "In addition to the half-price concession," he said, "the areas are less crowded, plus the romantic atmosphere reflected by the lights make you feel as if you are traveling abroad." He would definitely visit the exposition again if given a chance.
According to Taichung City Government, the night lights interspersed with the colorful flowers are intended to enhance the overall beauty of the Flora Expo. In consideration of walking comfort for visitors and seniors, the color tones were set to a warm 3,000K for trail guardrail lighting, while 4,000K color-toned lights were used to brightly illuminate green plants to make them look more vibrant at night.
