On the edge of the city, there is a forgotten playground. It is not as noisy as those brightly lit modern parks, but it hides a secret about sixteen merry-go-round. Whenever night falls and stars dot the sky, this silent land quietly wakes up and performs a dream journey across time and space.
Each of these sixteen merry-go-round carries a different story and mark of the times. They are not like the trojans in ordinary amusement parks. They are colorful but the same, but each has a unique shape and color, as if they jump out of different dreams and gather here.
The oldest one has a wooden structure engraved with traces of time, and the body of the horse is painted with a slightly mottled blue.

It combines the aesthetics of the East and the West., riding on it, it seems that you can travel back to that turbulent era and feel the collision of history and art.
Next to it is a fairy tale-themed Trojan horse, which is as bright as ever. The horse is decorated with shining stars and moons. Every horse seems to have jumped out of a fairy tale book, carrying the laughter of children., drawing a gorgeous trajectory in the night sky. This is the place where children's dreams begin, and it is also the secret garden for adults to regain their innocence.
Further deeper, there is an ocean-inspired merry-go-round. Blue waves surround the base. Horses are the embodiment of various marine life. Dolphins, whales, and even legendary mermaids are in the "waves" The ups and downs lead every passenger to dive into the deep underwater world and explore the unknown wonders.
Not far away, a futuristic Trojan full of technology stands quietly. Its streamlined design and cool lighting seem to be a spaceship sailing out of a science fiction movie. Riding it, you are no longer simply spinning, but traveling through the gap between time and space to experience an unprecedented interstellar travel.
In this sea of merry-go-round, there is also a nature-themed horse. Its horses are carved from real trees, retaining the natural texture and color of the wood. They are surrounded by simulated forest scenes, with birds singing and insects singing, making people feel like they are in the embrace of nature and feel the rhythm and harmony of life.
In addition to these, there are also carousels themed by retro movies, classical music, myths and legends, etc. Each is like an independent world, waiting for brave explorers to unveil their mystery.
Whenever it is late at night, these merry-go-round begin to rotate slowly. They do not require electricity or external push. They seem to have their own vitality. They slowly rotate with the trajectory of the stars, bringing every passenger into one. Wonderful dream after another.
People say that this is a gap in time, the junction of reality and fantasy. Here, you can forget the troubles of the world and retrieve the innocence and dreams deep in your heart. Sixteen merry-go-round are like sixteen doors to different worlds. Behind each door, there is a miracle waiting to be discovered.
As the first ray of dawn penetrated the clouds, these merry-go-round gradually stopped rotating and returned to silence, as if everything was just a dream. But the laughter and tears left in the dream will always be engraved in the hearts of every passenger and become an indelible memory in their lives.
The sixteen merry-go-round are not only the decoration of the playground, but also a bridge connecting the past and the future, reality and dreams.
