At night, don’t miss out on the amazing light show with the theme “2020 Year of Rat” which will have the entire Grand Postal Building as a backdrop. 

Besides the grand light show, you can’t miss out on strolling around the neighbourhood for other installations. Because these shows are smaller in size, you can interact with them more closely.

Most of the installations will be located close to each other within walking distance, so don’t worry about getting too tired.
