　　“Music out of metal scraps” will be present at the park, with a set of percussion instrument made of metal scraps. Other Chinese folk musical instruments will be used during the concert. A park source said another purpose of using the waste metals was to boost people’s awareness of environmental protection.

　　The source said that Evergreen Resort, which is much more laid-back and tranquil than other parks in the city, is an ideal place to go and relax.
