Architect Ma Ke creates a Kiss Bridge with transparent acrylic boards and ceramic fishbowls. Bridges are often spots for dating lovers in traditional Chinese folklore and the goldfish in the bowls are witnesses of the lovers' kisses.
In the south plaza, an 18-meter-high interactive tree-shaped light installation encourages people to kiss. Each kiss activates a light sequence, reminding audiences of their sweet childhood memories of kisses and embraces.
At the side of the tree is a counter, in which each kiss is counted and represents a donation to charity organizations.
