Gardens of the Masters in Xi'an

From April to October last year, the World Horticultural Expo took place in the ancient Chinese city of Xi'an. It is little known that Australia was represented by Czech-Australian landscape architect Vladimír Sitta. Together with his team at Terragram, he designed the exhibition Garden of Passages.
The motto of the exhibition was the phrase "harmonious coexistence of the city and nature." The organizers created an environment full of flowers, green grass, and water. At the same time, they combined these natural factors with the rich history of Xi'an, local folklore, and humanity's desire to protect the environment and maintain low emissions of harmful substances. The area spanned 418 hectares, of which 188 hectares were water surfaces.
At the end of last year, the editorial team of Archiweb conducted an interview with Vladimír Sitta about the homeless park in Sydney. This time, we return to Sitta's work with his own text about the project for the horticultural Expo in China. The article was written before the closure of the exhibition there.
