Ma Wan Park is an innovative new concept in Hong Kong by Sun Hung<br />
Kai Properties, with 18 hectares full of greenery <strong>and</strong> natural l<strong>and</strong>scaping.<br />
A Nature Garden is one of the attractions in the first phase, to be followed<br />
by exhibits such as Noah’s Ark <strong>and</strong> a Solar Tower. <strong>The</strong> second phase<br />
Ma Wan Old Village will be another tourist attraction with its culinary<br />
delights <strong>and</strong> cultural elements.<br />
Nature Garden spans 5.6 hectares with elements on the themes of<br />
nature, learning, arts <strong>and</strong> love in thee Rainbow Wall, Sweet Garden,<br />
Golden Mean Plaza, Windmill Station, Liberal Learning Centre, Hilltop<br />
Lookout <strong>and</strong> Heritage Centre. It was planned as a natural environment<br />
for interactive learning where it allows visitors to see nature close up.<br />
Renewable energy systems promote the conservation of resources <strong>and</strong><br />
sustainable development.<br />
(1) Renewable Energy<br />
<strong>The</strong> Garden’s Windmill Station developed with the Hong Kong<br />
Polytechnic University demonstrates renewable energy with solar, wind<br />
<strong>and</strong> hybrid power systems, geothermal coupling, biomass energy, biofuel<br />
technology <strong>and</strong> hydroelectric power. <strong>The</strong> systems supply some<br />
on the Park’s power requirements; cutting down on pollution from<br />
conventional power generation. <strong>The</strong>y also collect r<strong>esearch</strong> data for<br />
education <strong>and</strong> promote conservation.<br />
(2) Heritage Conservation<br />
A Heritage Centre built in a restored village school teaches visitors<br />
about cultural history <strong>and</strong> the importance of heritage conservation.<br />
Educational displays include a Tang dynasty lime kiln, Qing dynasty brick<br />
kiln <strong>and</strong> replicas of late-neolithic human remains found on Ma Wan.<br />
(3) Relationship with Nature<br />
An extensive wooden boardwalk was installed with minimal disturbance<br />
to the natural topography, vegetation <strong>and</strong> ecosystem to demonstrate<br />
the possibilities for green initiatives in building design.<br />
(4) Leisure, Love <strong>and</strong> Education<br />
<strong>The</strong> Nature Garden is an oasis of beauty <strong>and</strong> harmony <strong>and</strong> a living<br />
classroom for all ages in a natural outdoor setting incorporating learning<br />
with experts providing education on personal development, society<br />
<strong>and</strong> culture <strong>and</strong> science, technology <strong>and</strong> the environment. This provides<br />
children with a natural environment to enjoy all-round learning through<br />
a series of interactive programmes.<br />
