“An old airport in Taiwan has found new life in an unexpected form: an urban park,” Diskin wrote. Taichung Shuinan Airport has been transformed into the new Central Park designed by Mosbach Paysagistes, a French landscape architecture team who integrated the airport’s topography into the park’s landscape design.
The park features 12 different fields inspired by Austrian philosopher Rudolf Steiner’s “Principle of the 12 Senses.”
The article mentions an area where visitors can experience the creation of echoes and the olfactory experience area is full of flowers, allowing visitors to experience the fragrance.
The park also integrates solar technology and sets up solar panels to shield the park from humidity and pollution in the city.
There are as many as 200 species of plants in the park and more than 10,000 trees are expected to grow next few years.
