The spectacular night view is available only from August 17th to 26th each year. The lighting period coincides with the blooming season of fountain grass, zinnias, and sunflowers. The illuminated area focuses on the fountain grass zone, where lights dance to music at night, boldly casting vibrant rainbow hues across the adorable tufts of fountain grass — an incredibly beautiful and dreamy sight.
In the fountain grass area, the lights dance to the rhythm of music at night, creating a stunningly beautiful and dreamy atmosphere.

The vast, round, and adorable sea of fountain grass also takes on different appearances throughout the seasons. From July to September, the green-leaved fountain grass presents a refreshing summer beauty; by late September, it gradually transitions to red foliage, and during this transitional period, you can see gradient-colored fountain grass with striking red-and-green hues.
