Celebrate the Lunar New Year with two captivating exhibitions steeped in Chinese culture and tradition. Gardens by the Bay ushers in the Year of the Snake with Spring Blossoms, a floral display at the Flower Dome that draws inspiration from the Legend of the White Snake, one of the Four Great Folktales of China. At the centre of the display is a stunning 4.5-metre floral rendition of the protagonist, Madam White Snake, standing amid a vibrant landscape of dahlias and festive blooms. Also on display are two intricately crafted wooden models of pagodas linked to the legend, on loan from the Asian Civilisations Museum. The models are part of a historic set of 84 pagodas carved by artists from Shanghai’s Tushanwan Workshop between 1912 and 1914. The collection travelled thousands of miles to San Francisco for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition of 1915, where it introduced Western audiences to traditional Chinese architecture. Visit Pagoda Odyssey 1915: From Shanghai to San Francisco at ACM to see the full set on display. Visitors to the Flower Dome enjoy free entry to this special exhibition (terms and conditions apply).
