China Lights Flex Ticket
A "Journey Around the World" at Cologne Zoo.
64 light ensembles made up of over 1,000 individual figures, more than 4,000 LED lights and over 15,000 metres of LED string lights.
The central highlights and common thread are the architectural classics of every continent. The Statue of Liberty, Christ the Redeemer in Rio, Beijing's temple complexes, the Pyramids of Giza and the Eiffel Tower shine as handcrafted light sculptures.
The China Lights creators have added illuminated animal and fantasy figures to match each region, spread across 20 hectares of zoo grounds.
