A day in the countryside is not the only way to enjoy the beauty of flowers. Now, you can visit the ongoing Taipei International Flora Expo. There, you can bask yourself in the fragrance of blooming flowers to your heart's content.

Visitors to the Pavilion of New Fashion may be surprised by its special material. Its exterior wall is completely made of recycled plastic bottles -- over a million-and-a-half of them! This hexagonal building with its crystal outline is the architect's modern design for energy conservation. The interior space also boasts a solid and stable structure.

A specially designed corridor collects and recycles rainwater. Low-carbon ideas can also be seen in some hand-made apparel.

These pieces are about 2.5 meters long, and are also made of recycled textiles. Not only can visitors see the latest fashion here, but also some great ideas for a low-carbon lifestyle.
