Who says Lego is only for kids? From now to May 18, immerse yourself in floral splendour as Hong Kong's first-ever Lego botanical garden opens at Pacific Place. Start your journey at The Florishing Arch, adorned with foliage and Lego flowers, before reaching The Rose Reverie, an impressive Lego structure crafted by Andy Hung, the first Lego-certified professional in China and the only one in Hong Kong. Made from over 120,000 bricks, the display stands at four metres tall and took Hung over 840 hours to make! Over at The Dazzling Pavilion is a colourful Lego flower wall with a mirror setup that's perfect for photos, while adjacent floral displays featuring real tree branches showcase the creativity and craftsmanship of Kirk Cheng, a floral artisan known for his large-scale floral artworks across Asia.
We're off to a great start for the month of May with a long weekend to celebrate both Buddha's Birthday and the Cheung Chau Bun Festival. And as much as we love slumping on the couch and calling it a weekend activity, it wouldn't hurt to go out and do a bit of exploring around the city, especially when there seems to be something new happening every weekend! Here's our pick of activities that are sure to keep you entertained from Friday night through to Sunday.
