Where Bricks Bloom: Pacific Place Unveils Hong Kong’s First LEGO® Botanical Garden
Step Into a Brick-Built Spring-Summer Wonderland Where Nature Blooms with Imagination
HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 28 April 2025 – What if nature were reimagined in bricks? This Spring-Summer, Pacific Place invites you on a whimsical journey through Where Bricks Bloom — Hong Kong’s first-ever LEGO® Botanical Garden, where floral splendour and artistic craftsmanship collide. Running from 24 April to 18 May, Garden Court at Pacific Place will transform into a celebration of the seasons, carpeted with intricate floral creations built from over 120,000 beloved LEGO® bricks and over 6,000 LEGO® flowers from the Botanical Collection.
A Symphony of Bricks and Botanicals
The spectacular displays of Where Bricks Bloom are brought to life by Andy Hung, the first LEGO® Certified Professional throughout the Greater China Region and the only one in Hong Kong, as well as Kirk Cheng, a floral artisan celebrated for his large-scale floral artworks across Asia. Together, they merge the beauty of nature with the structural artistry of LEGO® to craft an immersive showcase of creativity, architecture, and botanicals.
A Garden Bursting with Colours: A Journey in Bloom
Spread across five uniquely themed zones, the garden takes you on a journey that celebrates the many shapes and forms of blooming flowers. From bold roses to elegant orchids, each installation showcases nature’s artistry, infused with a touch of fantastical wonder.
| The Flourishing Arch | Start your journey at this eye-catching floral archway, a colourful and vibrant prelude to what lies ahead. Stabilised foliage intermingles with delicate LEGO® flowers and budding petals, evoking the first signs of spring-summer. |
| The Rose Reverie | Anchoring the garden is an impressive LEGO® roses sculpture, expertly created by Andy Hung, towering at nearly four metres tall and made up of over 120,000 LEGO® bricks.
Taking over 840 man-hours, the roses are crafted in a stunning gradient of red, pink, orange, yellow, and purple, capturing the brilliant tones of spring and summer. Each petal is meticulously built, making this larger-than-life sculpture a remarkable symbol of the season’s blooming beauty. Accompanying the brick-built roses is a creative collaboration with floral maestro Kirk Cheng, together with signature LEGO® blocks at the base, adding a playful yet elegant touch to this floral wonder. |
| The Dazzling Pavilion | As you make your way to the back of the garden, you’ll discover a striking pavilion bursting with colourful blooms. At its centre, a magnificent flower wall made entirely of LEGO® flowers creates a picture-perfect backdrop, inviting you to indulge in the blossoms and their delightful botanical aroma.
Flanking the pavilion are two European-inspired botanical showcases that reimagine the charm of spring and summer bursting with seasonal blooms in vibrant colours. Under Kirk’s creativity and craftmanship, the showcases are crafted from real tree branches and painted in dynamic colours, adorned with a variety of dried and silk foliage as well as a selection of LEGO® flowers including Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet, Wildflower Bouquet, and the newly launched Petite Sunny Bouquet box sets, injecting creativity into classic botany. |
| Floral Reflections | The journey continues with a wonderful reflective installation, overflowing with vigorous flowers, and grass elements — another photo opportunity in this creative garden walk. The mirror setup invites you to take in the fresh, radiant appearance and share it with friends. The reflection further enhances the blooming beauty around you, creating the perfect backdrop for a selfie with inspirational quotes. |
| Brick to Bloom Fleuriste | Complete your journey by visiting this floral stall encircled by cascading LEGO® flowers. Here, you can appreciate the unique features of all the fresh and blooming LEGO flowers, as well as learn the language behind these beautiful creations. On designated dates, you can redeem a charming LEGO® flower gift with a purchase of HK$1,500 or more at Pacific Place and Starstreet Precinct.

Technology + Scenario + Supply Chain = A New Benchmark for Regional Zero-Carbon Smart Transportation
Wing Kai New Energy X QIJI Energy X C&D Hi-Tech
HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 5 June 2026 – The 19th (2026) International Photovoltaic Power Generation and Smart Energy Exhibition & Conference (SNEC 2026) was grandly held from June 3 to 5, 2026, at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). Attracting over 3,000 exhibitors from 95 countries worldwide, the event stands as the largest and most influential professional grand gathering for the photovoltaic and energy storage sectors across Asia and globally.
During the exhibition, Mr. Yiu Wang Lee, Chairman of the Board of Wing Lee Development Construction Holdings Limited (“Wing Lee” or the “Group”, stock code: 9639.HK); Mr. Cai Huihui, General Manager of Wing Kai New Energy Technology Co., Limited (“Wing Kai New Energy”); Mr. Wang Yi, Key Account Manager of QIJI Energy; Mr. Xu Jun, Overseas Energy Storage Commercial Director of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL); and Mr. You Yuxian, ASEAN Regional Energy Storage Sales Director of CATL, jointly visited the exhibition booth of C&D Hi-Tech. The delegation engaged in in-depth discussions with the team led by General Manager Mr. Zhan Shengli, focusing on battery swapping station projects in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. By integrating multi-party resources, the teams successfully finalized and signed a Strategic Cooperation Agreement.
Through this signing, the three parties will join forces to address and resolve the industry pain points of overseas markets regarding regulatory compliance, engineering infrastructure, and supply chain coordination. The collaboration represents a deep integration of QIJI Energy’s cutting-edge battery swapping solutions, Wing Kai New Energy’s localized infrastructure and operational capabilities across Hong Kong and Shenzhen, and C&D Hi-Tech’s robust global resource allocation strengths. Moving from single-project development to an ecosystem of mutual win-win, this partnership will significantly enhance the delivery efficiency of green energy across Hong Kong, Macau, and the Southeast Asian region, setting a brand-new benchmark for regional zero-carbon smart transportation.
As a subsidiary of Wing Lee, Wing Kai New Energy has been rooted in Hong Kong since its inception while radiating its presence globally, deeply cultivating sustainable clean energy solutions. Addressing the acute pain points in the Greater Bay Area and Southeast Asian markets, where rapid fluctuations in energy prices have led to surging cost pressures for logistics distribution enterprises, Wing Kai New Energy will focus on urban distribution logistics battery swapping businesses in the future. The company plans to integrate site resources, infrastructure, and operations to fill the gap in regional infrastructure. We firmly believe that this cooperation will effectively bridge the cross-border green energy eco-link, accelerate the construction of a green energy service network, and contribute solidly to the realization of the “dual carbon” goals. Meanwhile, we sincerely invite more partners to join the Zero-Carbon Smart Alliance to jointly advance sustainable development.

The delegation of over 70 business and institutional leaders from Hong Kong and the Chinese Mainland is the largest and most diverse overseas mission led by the current term of the HKSAR Government so far.
Speaking to the media in Uzbekistan yesterday (June 4), Mr Lee set out the three main objectives of the visit: further explore emerging markets and lay the foundation for long-term economic and trade development; strengthen government-to-government (G2G) relationships and promote closer bilateral co-operation; and build a “hub-to-hub” model of co-operation.
He said the visit had been successful, yielding achievements in eight areas, including:
- Establishing high-level contacts and ties between the HKSAR Government and the Governments of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and reaching consensus on co-operation in multiple areas;
- A total of 96 co-operation agreements and memoranda of understanding (MoUs) were reached during the visit (61 with Kazakhstan, 35 with Uzbekistan), involving specific amounts exceeding US$1.65 billion in total;
- The governments agreed to commence bilateral discussions on agreements in various areas;
- Deepening project matching and research collaboration between Hong Kong and Central Asian region in areas including finance, innovation and technology (I&T), and aviation;
- Demonstrating Hong Kong’s effective role as a platform for going global and achieving substantial results, with Hong Kong and Mainland enterprises joining forces in tapping new markets and bringing synergistic advantages into full play;
- Facilitating more convenient people-to-people exchanges by promoting direct flights, aviation and transport co-operation, and extensions to the mutual visa-free period;
- Promoting exchanges in education, talent and culture to further deepen people-to-people bonds; and
- Advancing a hub-to-hub co-operation model to open up broader room for co-operation between Hong Kong and the Central Asian region.
While in Tashkent (June 3-5), Mr Lee met with local leaders, government officials and business representatives to deepen co-operation between Hong Kong and Uzbekistan in areas including trade, investment, finance, I&T, and people-to-people exchanges.
Mr Lee held meetings with the President of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Miromonovich Mirziyoyev, his Advisor on Strategic Development, Sardor Umurzakov, the Prime Minister, Abdulla Nigmatovich Aripov, as well as the Deputy Prime Minister, Jamshid Khodjayev, to exchange views on furthering mutual co-operation.
Mr Lee highlighted that under the “one country, two systems” principle, Hong Kong enjoys both the China advantage and the global advantage. He said that Hong Kong would continue to play its roles as a “super connector” and a “super value-adder” to further deepen co-operation and exchanges with Uzbekistan on various fronts in line with Uzbekistan’s goal of achieving high-quality development.
Earlier (June 3), Mr Lee met with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Uzbekistan, Bakhtiyor Saidov, after which they jointly witnessed an exchange of notes between the two places on a mutual visa-free arrangement, which would allow a visa-free period of 30 days for visitors from both sides.
“Moreover, we are glad to have initialed the Air Services Agreement with Uzbekistan, and look forward to launching direct passenger flights between the two places soon,” Mr Lee said, during a high-level business dinner (June 4). The Chief Executive pointed out that Hong Kong and Uzbekistan are important trade and investment gateways to their respective regions – the Asia-Pacific and Central Asia.
“It helps that we are all believers in the Belt and Road (B&R) Initiative, a modern expression of the ancient Silk Road spirit,” Mr Lee said. “Today, China is Uzbekistan’s largest trading partner, and the two countries work closely on major infrastructure and connectivity projects that are revitalising the Silk Road. Hong Kong is a pivotal player in the B&R Initiative, thanks to our world-class professional and financial services expertise.”
The delegation also toured the IT Park Uzbekistan and the Center for Islamic Civilization before concluding its visit in Tashkent.
