00:00A new nighttime holiday display featuring music, colors, and over a million twinkling lights
00:09opened its doors in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. The exhibition, which opened on Friday,
00:16features towers of peonies, roses, and other flowers entwinted with strings of light several
00:25mirrors along. The artist created whimsical water lilies and giant dragonflies and transformed
00:31a Canary Island strawberry tree into a neon tree. The immersive Christmas trails, called
00:37Lightscape, are located in Sister Gardens in Chicago, Brooklyn, and London, but this is
00:43the first one in San Francisco. Crowds of locals and tourists have luck to see the show, which
00:50just three days after its inauguration has attracted almost 100,000 visitors and is expected to
00:58grow exponentially until its closing on January 4th of next year.
01:03At Lightscape, we're actually seeing people from all walks of life. Lots of families, lots
01:10of couples, lots of friend groups, maybe a little bit of corporate holiday merrymaking. I've
01:15actually met guests from Chile, from Argentina, from Guatemala, from Switzerland. So we're seeing
01:22folks come in from all over the world. This is the very first year that we've brought Lightscape
01:26to the San Francisco Botanical Gardens. We have had an exceptional reception and we'll
01:31be bringing Lightscape back next season in a totally different way.
