At the opening ceremony， guests pieced together the official logo for 50th anniversary of the diplomatic relations between China and the Netherlands. The logo is in red and orange representing China and the Netherlands respectively. With curling lines resembling the water flow as basic elements， the logo shapes like an incomplete number “50” in the middle and Chinese characters of people at the bottom， showing the important juncture of the 50th anniversary of the diplomatic relations and a new starting point of China-Netherlands relationship starting from the 50th anniversary and the development going forward.

Followers are arranged to create a unique “Dutch Garden” in the shape of the Logo. The installations adopt the unique patters of Delft blue porcelain of the Netherlands. A total of 50，000 flowers including various tulips， hyacinth， roses， and calla lily are displayed， presenting a sea of flower as colorful as ribbons， providing people in Chongqing a live experience of the romance from the Netherlands.

市政府外辦主任王雯為開幕式發(fā)表暖場(chǎng)視頻致辭。她表示，荷蘭是重慶在歐洲的重要交往國(guó)家。2013年荷蘭在重慶設(shè)立總領(lǐng)事館后，兩地在物流、教育、文化等多領(lǐng)域聯(lián)系愈加密切。2022年，在中荷建交50周年的大背景下，市政府外辦將與荷蘭駐重慶總領(lǐng)事館攜手舉辦多項(xiàng)活動(dòng)，進(jìn)一步深化務(wù)實(shí)合作。相信作為系列活動(dòng)的開端，此次中荷建交50周年荷蘭花藝裝置展將增進(jìn)重慶市民對(duì)荷蘭的了解，推動(dòng)重慶與荷蘭交往合作開啟新篇章。

荷蘭駐重慶總領(lǐng)事包適在致辭中稱：“2013年，荷蘭在重慶開設(shè)總領(lǐng)事館。過去十年，我們見證了重慶基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施以及各行各業(yè)的巨大發(fā)展，重慶在中國(guó)與歐洲之間的互聯(lián)互通中發(fā)揮著越來越重要的作用。”他表示，荷蘭在重慶設(shè)立總領(lǐng)事館是正確的決策。未來希望和重慶攜手共同應(yīng)對(duì)氣候變化等全球挑戰(zhàn)，致力于推動(dòng)更加可持續(xù)和更具有包容性的經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展。

此次慶祝活動(dòng)以花為媒，以中荷建交50周年的巨大標(biāo)志形狀打造特色“荷蘭花園”。其裝置使用了荷蘭特色“代爾夫特藍(lán)瓷”元素。現(xiàn)場(chǎng)共展出5萬朵鮮花，包含多個(gè)品種的荷蘭國(guó)花郁金香，并配以風(fēng)信子、玫瑰和馬蹄蓮等特色花卉，在城市里打造出一片花海，如彩帶般五顏六色，為重慶市民和游客提供了獨(dú)特的方式，感受來自荷蘭的浪漫。
