Gardens of Light / Ogrody światła





Winter Evening of Light 2014, The Royal Lazienki Museum



Gardens of Light is an international project aimed at showcasing the world’s most spectacular historic gardens and museums. The five unique royal residences specially selected for the project are the Royal Łazienki Museum in Warsaw, Prince Pückler Park in Bad Muskau (Germany), Tsarskoye Selo Museum in Saint Petersburg (Russia), Prince Kung’s Mansion in Beijing (China) and Château de Lunéville in France.

The main goal of the Gardens of Light is to communicate to the public the aesthetic visions of 18th and 19th century architecture and garden design with their focus on a seamless blend of nature and art and strong connections to scientific discoveries and philosophical thought of the period.

The first event in 2014 will be the Winter Evening of Light – an evening walk in the gardens, lit by lanterns. During the walk, the guests will have an opportunity to admire picturesque garden illuminations. The walk will take place simultaneously in all the participating gardens.
