Activities for seniors

In 2024, we established the "Senior Academy," focusing on three core themes: "Technology", "Health", and "Aesthetics". The academy designs themed courses and activities around these areas, aiming to provide seniors with a richer and more fulfilling life experience. Occasional classes include art education, life and healthcare, horticulture, flower arrangements, and others.

Senior Books

This area offers around 5,000 books, covering topics such as financial management, health and wellness, travel, arts, cooking, gardening, and retirement planning. It also includes a collection focused on themes of interest to middle-aged and elderly readers, such as life education, dementia, and long-term care. To promote and enhance reading interest among seniors, the area regularly organizes themed book exhibitions and displays of new arrivals.

Senior Picture Book Garden

The "Senior Picture Book Garden" is designed specifically for senior readers, offers a curated selection of picture books tailored for those aged 55 and above. This cozy and inviting space features a blend of styles inspired by Northern Europe, Italy, Southern France, and England, allowing seniors to enjoy the beauty of reading through the companionship of picture books. The collection is rich in themes such as family relationships, loneliness, nostalgia, and life. By combining imagery with words, the garden offers seniors resonance and joy in reading. The "Senior Picture Book Garden” aspires to be a haven for seniors, inspiring inner vitality and creativity.
