I was not so interested to come to this exhibition until some friends said
that Indonesia won the Golden Award of Outstanding Exhibit in the past few
years.

Booth of Indonesian Consulate General in Hong Kong @ HK Flower Show 2013 |
As to support my beautiful country, I arrived at Victoria Park at noon
at the day when it was very sunny... I
went straight to the information center and asked for the Indonesian booth.
Well, the booth made me proud being an Indonesian in Hong Kong.

See the pic of Saman dancers @ Indonesian booth |
This year, Indonesia presented a booth themed on the Indonesian
province of Aceh. The booth attracted attention of many visitors. People were standing
in front of the booth taking pics of the booth and flowers, the Indonesian
dancers too. The booth was never alone!

Gile,
susah bener motret booth ini tanpa orang2,… Banyak yang mau foto bunganya, booth-nya, atau
foto bareng sama penari2nya…
Other booths from different countries (and other entities in Hong Kong) present gorgeous flower arrangement as well...

Tulips |
|
Thailand booth |
|
Macau booth |
|
Japanese garden style |
Without having planned it, I went there again on Sunday the last day of
the exhibition. The crowd seemed double! Victoria Park is always crowded anyway
on Sunday as it is the day off for the migrant workers.

What does it look like? |
|
Cute flower arrangement |
|
Cute "mushroom" flowers |
|
Bonzai |
Still the Indonesian booth organized by Indonesian Consulate General was
crowded.... Bahasa Indonesia with many different accents could be heard in
almost everywhere. The beautiful dancers
dressed up in different outfits. They are as pretty as always…

Some more Indonesian dancers |
This flower is not about moving Mong Kok flower market to Victoria
Park, but it is better than I expected.

My 2nd favorite booth, after the Indonesian booth @ HK Flower Show 2013 |
