Taipei International Flora Exposition, Horticultural exposition in Taipei, Taiwan.
The Taipei International Flora Exposition was a horticultural exhibition organized across four park locations with 14 pavilions showcasing plants and artistic displays. The event featured garden installations, environmental technology demonstrations, and collections of botanical specimens across multiple themed zones.
The exposition took place between 2010 and 2011 and was the first internationally recognized event of its kind in Taiwan. It attracted significantly more visitors than projected, marking an important moment for Taiwan's cultural events on the global stage.
The exposition showcased gardening techniques and artistic elements through pavilions displaying diverse orchid collections from around the world. Visitors could experience both traditional and modern cultivation methods across the different exhibition areas.
The exposition spread across multiple park locations throughout the city and was accessible by public transportation. Visitors could enter from different points depending on which exhibition area they wished to explore first.
One pavilion called EcoARK was constructed from 1.5 million recycled plastic bottles and demonstrated innovative sustainability methods. This building was a striking example of how waste materials could be repurposed for large-scale structures.
