Sydney’s Chinese Garden of Friendship has been transformed into a marvelous wonderland reflecting the four seasons of the year and their changing light. The Nature Illuminated experience takes visitors on a journey through summer, winter, autumn and spring with a series of enchanting light displays that enhance the serenity of nature and the gardens for an otherworldly experience. And, it must close on Sunday 27 March!
Don’t miss out on Nature Illuminated at the Chinese Garden of Friendship—get your tickets here.
Nature Illuminated is also home to a number of interactive forest sprites. These creatures keep a watchful eye over the gardens and maintain harmony between nature and humanity as night descends on their home in the city. Not only can visitors interact with them in the gardens, but they can also go on an augmented reality treasure hunt perfect to help explore the flora and fauna of this fabled realm.
A string quartet will perform Vivaldi’s Four Seasons to serenade guests as they make their way through the four-season wonderland while themed cocktails will also be available to begin their evening visit.
To enhance the Nature Illuminated experience, a delectable eight-course Chinese Premium Banquet from The Gardens by Lotus can be added to your magical night out. Dine on Pacific oysters, Jade prawn dumplings, duck pancakes and pork xiao long baos among other dishes as autumnal reds and oranges, icy winter blues, scorching summer yellows and blooming spring greens light up your surroundings.
Pescatarian and vegetarian options are also available for the eight-course Chinese Premium Banquet.
Relax, unwind and get lost in this absolute dreamland.
This luminescent world is truly an incredible experience at sunset and when darkness completely envelopes the city.
