“Recreating the Natural Scene” Landscaping and Photography Expo Kicks-off
What’s new at the Taipei Collectible Botanical Garden? There is a new exhibition featuring endemic plants of Taiwan and design cases which utilized these endemic plants.
The event is organized by the Forestry Bureau under the Executive Yuan’s Council of Agriculture. It is an exhibition of the cases submitted to a related design competition. Due to the vast amount of endemic plants at Taipei Collectible Botanical Garden, the venue has been chosen to host both the competition and exhibition. The showcase will last through October 31.
In addition, there is an interactive activity for visitors. From October 27 to 30 (between 9 AM and 5 PM), individuals who take selfies with any of the displayed plants and upload it to the Facebook page of Taiwan Agricultural Science and Technology Resources Logistic Management Association can bring home a souvenir of their choice (canvas bag, notebook, or deck of cards) from the information desk of the expo. Only a limited number of gifts are available, so act fast!
