Sanxing Lighting Illuminates the Ancient Capital of Six Dynasties - Outdoor Lighting Project of Jiangsu Garden Expo Park
Nanjing, renowned as the Ancient Capital of Six Dynasties, boasts profound historical heritage and the unique elegance of Jiangnan garden art. Located in Jiangning District of Nanjing, Jiangsu Garden Expo Park was built on the site of the 11th Jiangsu Horticultural Expo. Covering an area of 2.54 million square meters, it integrates ecological restoration, garden art, industrial heritage renovation and cultural tourism leisure, standing as a landmark ecological and cultural site in Jiangsu. The park features exhibition gardens from 13 cities, seven restored ancient gardens and six innovative themed landscapes. Surrounded by rolling hills and lush vegetation, it presents a perfect blend of natural charm and classical architecture.
As the core outdoor lighting solution provider for this project, Sanxing Lighting deployed LED Pole Lights Outdoor and LED Yard Lights across walkways, green belts, plazas and scenic zones of the park. Combining bionic aesthetic design and mature LED lighting technology, these products deliver excellent performance in functionality, artistry and environmental friendliness, creating a layered and artistic nightscape for the ancient capital. This project fully demonstrates Sanxing Lighting’s comprehensive strength in cultural tourism and landscape lighting, achieving a harmonious integration of light, nature and local culture.
Project Overview: Integrating Nature, Culture and Ecology with Light
Guided by the theme "Splendid Jiangsu · Eco-Intelligent Valley", Jiangsu Garden Expo Park creates an immersive garden landscape that changes with every step and presents beautiful views all year round. The lighting design is far more than simple night brightening. Prioritizing ecological protection and cultural inheritance, the team strictly controls light brightness and layers to avoid light pollution, and builds a three-dimensional lighting system that combines functional lighting, landscape illumination and artistic light effects.
Given the winding paths and diverse scenic zones, different areas put forward varied requirements for lamp styles, lighting effects and product adaptability. After multiple rounds of comparison and on-site tests, LED Pole Lights Outdoor and LED Yard Lights from Sanxing Lighting were selected as the main outdoor lighting fixtures. Featuring exquisite bionic shapes, soft uniform light output and outstanding weather resistance, they match perfectly with the style of Jiangnan gardens. Deployed in different zones, the two types of lights complement each other wonderfully. They guarantee safe night travel for visitors, serve as exquisite landscape decorations in the daytime, and create a poetic atmosphere after dark.
Two Core Lighting Products: Bionic Design Combines Beauty and Practicality
With years of expertise in the outdoor lighting industry, Sanxing Lighting adheres to the philosophy of "Design inspired by nature, technology serving people". Both LED Pole Lights Outdoor and LED Yard Lights adopt natural bionic design, combining traditional Chinese cultural implications, natural shapes and modern craftsmanship. They work as reliable lighting devices as well as decorative art pieces, ideal for gardens, scenic spots, municipal parks and other outdoor venues.
LED Pole Lights Outdoor: Elegant Lotus Style, Interpreting Oriental Classic Beauty
The lotus is a classic symbol in traditional Chinese culture, representing purity, harmony and prosperity, and it is also a typical element of Jiangnan gardens. Designed based on blooming lotus flowers, LED Pole Lights Outdoor inherits the graceful lines of lotus petals and features distinctive oriental charm. It is perfectly suited for classical exhibition gardens, waterfront landscapes and antique courtyards in the park.
The lamp body is made of high-pressure die-cast aluminum with outdoor special powder coating, which delivers excellent resistance against corrosion, sunlight and harsh weather for long-term outdoor use. The high-quality PC lampshade is heat-resistant and anti-aging to extend service life. The layered hollowed-out petal structure creates soft diffused light and a strong artistic ambiance. Equipped with high-efficiency COB LED light sources, the lamps offer warm white light with a color temperature of 3750K-4250K. The light is even, soft and glare-free thanks to the diffuse reflection optical design, building a quiet and comfortable night environment.
In addition, the products support intelligent individual lamp control and time-sharing dimming. Users can adjust brightness according to time periods and passenger flow. They cut energy consumption by more than 60% compared with traditional lamps, and the LED light source has a service life of over 50,000 hours, greatly reducing later maintenance costs and echoing the park’s eco-friendly development concept. Standing among the gardens, these lamps cast gentle glow that sets off ancient architectures, rockeries and waterscapes, fully showing the tenderness and elegance of Jiangnan gardens.
LED Yard Lights: Inspired by Sunflowers, Full of Natural Vitality
Inspired by sunflowers that stand tall towards the sun, LED Yard Lights symbolize optimism, vitality and hope. With smooth and dynamic lines simulating sunflower stems and flower discs, the products feature a minimalist modern style and lively temperament. They are mainly installed along leisure walkways, ecological wetlands and activity plazas.
The arc-shaped top and radial textures of the lamp perfectly restore the appearance of sunflowers, while the curved lamp arm presents an upward posture full of dynamism. Crafted from premium aluminum alloy with classic black and gold finish, the lamps are elegant and versatile. The fully enclosed structure is dust-proof and mosquito-proof for easy daily maintenance. Fitted with high-transmission lampshades, the lights are bright yet mild. The precisely designed light distribution concentrates illumination on walkways and green areas and minimizes light spillage to protect the local ecological environment.
Available in heights from 3 meters to 5 meters, these lamps fit various outdoor passage spaces. They boast superior performance in wind resistance, waterproofing and UV resistance, maintaining stable working condition and good appearance all year round. Walking under the warm glow of LED Yard Lights, visitors can enjoy a relaxed and pleasant night tour experience, while the vivid lamp shapes inject endless vitality into the whole park.
Project Implementation: Scientific Layout for Full Integration with Landscapes
In accordance with functional divisions, landscape styles and tourist routes of the park, the construction team arranged the two types of lights in a scientific and classified way to blend fixtures with surrounding scenery.
LED Pole Lights Outdoor are mainly placed in culturally rich areas including 13 city exhibition gardens, restored ancient gardens and waterfront belts. The lotus-inspired design harmonizes naturally with traditional gardens, ancient buildings, green plants and waterscapes. They act as delicate landscape ornaments in the daytime, and outline the silhouette of classical gardens with soft light at night, reproducing the poetic charm of ancient Nanjing.
LED Yard Lights are arranged along main garden roads, leisure plazas and ecological wetlands where crowds gather. Their lively shapes and comfortable lighting ensure safety for walking and outdoor activities, and add vigor to open spaces. The two lamp styles, one classical and tranquil, the other modern and energetic, are distributed across the park, forming a rich and diverse nightscape.
All lamps are connected to an intelligent control system, which automatically adjusts brightness and working hours according to day and night, holidays and passenger flow, practicing the low-carbon and energy-saving concept. Adopting anti-glare technology, all products control the lighting range effectively to reduce light pollution and protect the flora and fauna in the park.
Project Achievements & Value: A New Nightscape Landmark and Proof of Brand Strength
After the completion of the project, the brand-new night view has become a major highlight of Jiangsu Garden Expo Park. When night falls, soft light from LED Pole Lights Outdoor and vibrant glow from LED Yard Lights weave across the whole park, forming a stunning picture combining mountains, gardens and lights. The project has attracted numerous tourists for night tours and won high recognition from the property owner, design institutes and industry professionals.
In practical terms, the stable and high-quality lighting greatly improves night travel safety in the park. The intelligent dimming system reduces energy consumption and operation costs for long-term efficient management. From the perspective of landscape design, the bionic lamps enrich visual layers and highlight the unique cultural connotation of the scenic spot. For the industry, this project once again proves Sanxing Lighting’s outstanding capabilities in design, product quality and on-site service for cultural tourism landscape lighting.
LED Pole Lights Outdoor and LED Yard Lights have set excellent benchmarks for landscape lighting, providing valuable references for similar projects including gardens, scenic areas and cultural towns nationwide.
Light acts as a brush to depict the beauty of nature and inherit millennial culture. The lighting project of Jiangsu Garden Expo Park is another classic case of Sanxing Lighting integrating product design, lighting technology, regional culture and ecological concepts. Moving forward, Sanxing Lighting will keep focusing on outdoor landscape lighting, and keep developing high-quality lighting products with exquisite appearance, reliable performance and cultural value. We will deliver professional lighting solutions for gardens, municipal spaces and cultural landmarks worldwide, and use light to brighten more urban landscapes.
