7. Big Dig Garden Germany: Martin Cano About the Designer: Martin Cano, one of chief designers of Topotek 1 which is the most progressive design corporation in Germany, receiver of a number of awards such as the First Prizes in competitions of Wolfsburg, Tiergarten, and Eberswalde. About the Exhibition Park: Everyone has a dream about the world in his or her own heart, fancying the scene at the other end of the world. In my childhood, I have been told by adults that if I kept on digging a hole in the earth, I would finally get to China. What a crazy and wonderful idea. I cannot help practicing my childhood dream in Xi’an International Horticultural Expo: to dig a mysterious hole in the ground, through which everyone can travel to the other side of the world.
 8. Loess Garden Denmark: Stig L Andersson About the Designer: Stig L Andersson, famous landscape architect in Denmark, leading figure in landscape design in Scandinavia, chief designer of the renowned landscape design corporation SLA, and the receiver of 2002 Eckersberg Medal. About the Exhibition Park: Chinese civilization is build on clay which means the “Earth”(土) has profound meaning. Clay also lays the foundation for the prosperity of Xi’an. I will use yellow earth, fountains, stone carvings and clay sculptures to display the climate, botany characteristics, and culture idea of the loess land. It’s an exploration and understanding to Chinese culture attempted by a foreigner.
 9. Passageway Garden Australia: Vladimir Sitta About the Designer: Vladimir Sitta, professor of the University of Western Australia and President of Terragram in Australia；his representative works include National Museum of Australia, and Fantasy Garden in Canberra; He is also the receiver of 1981 and 1986 Berlin Peter Joseph Ronna National Awards. About the Exhibition Park: It’s a little garden filled with romantic sentiments. Like an unknown sonnet, it records the elapse of time and blends fire and water.
