Eden Project at Night
~

Page being prepared with photographs and information.

The Eden Project at night was simply spectacular.

During A TIME OF GIFTS, the Eden Project produced a magical winter transformation
(between November 2004 and early February 2005), with dramatic night-time effects in the biomes.
There was an eerie jungle soundscape in the Tropical Biome, with all the lights reflecting off the
inside of the biome like stars, and there were dancers and performers in the Warm Temperate Biome.
The outdoor landscape was littered with braziers, lanterns... and ice skating!

As dusk fell over Eden and the new ice skating "biome", the view transformed from this...

to this...

Looking down towards the ice skating rink...

and inside (before the skating and photography was not so easy!)...

While outside, the night-time Biomes beckoned...

The Tropical Biome
With the sounds of the jungle at night, the plants and dampness all around, the animals calling,
the cool night-time warmth, and the lights reflecting like stars overhead, it was hard not to imagine that
you were really there... and not in an old china clay quarry in Cornwall!

Peering through the jungle to the biome canopy...

A night-time of reflected stars...

The Warm Temperate Biome
...where there were musicians, dancers, performers, and more stars overhead!

Back to the Eden Project (by day!)
