These acrylic rods extend outward and sway gently in the wind. During the day, light shines through the transparent acrylic rods to illuminate the "Seed Temple".

The architectural appearance of the China Pavilion is based on the theme of "Crown of the East", expressing the spirit and temperament of Chinese culture. The National Pavilion rises in the center and cascades out, becoming a collection of Chinese elements. The sculptural main body that symbolizes the Chinese spirit - the Crown of the East; the regional pavilion unfolds horizontally and sets off the national pavilion in the form of a stretched platform base, becoming an open, flexible, people-friendly and rich-layered city square; the two are in opposition to each other.

Expo Axis: Let the sun shine on the Expo Axis at the bottom of the valley. The location is just on the main axis of the spatial landscape and human traffic in the Expo area. On the thousand-meter avenue, 6 inverted cone-shaped steel structures with great visual impact are scattered in an orderly manner. The entire building is like a glass flower. The morning glory blooms quietly from the ground, crystal clear. They have a warm name called "Sunshine Valley" - letting natural light shine on the "valley bottom". During the day, Sunshine Valley is warm and pleasant. At night, all the building lights are lit up at once, colorful and radiant, like huge flowers blooming, decorating the Huangpu River like a dream.

Four white oblate spheres of different sizes and directions are clustered together, like a white cloud. The bright white membrane cloth on the outer shell of the meteorological museum is evenly dotted with spray points. When the spray is turned on, the entire building presents the effect of a cloud, resembling "water droplets in the cloud." If you take a stroll on the central pedestrian square, before the sun rises too high, you can see rainbows surrounding the building. The biggest feature here is the "combination of reality and reality". It looks like a house up close, and a blurred white cloud when seen from a distance. In the hot summer season, when all the sprays are turned on, visitors will clearly feel the contrast in the meteorological exhibition hall. The rest of the park is cooler. It is worth mentioning that during the Expo, dazzling 4D movies will be screened here, and visitors can experience the charm of the weather in an all-round way through a wonderful hot air balloon ride. The carefully designed weather change corridor will make people Linger and contemplate the issues of the earth and environment. Theme Pavilion: There are three theme pavilions in one, namely the "Urban People Pavilion", "Urban Life Pavilion" and "Urban Planet Pavilion". In this giant exhibition hall, there is not a single pillar in the 30,000-square-meter Hall 1. The shape of the pavilion is centered around the concept of "lanes" and "dormen" of Shanghai's characteristic buildings, and uses the "origami" technique to form a three-dimensional structure from a two-dimensional plane to a three-dimensional space. It highlights the characteristics of Shanghai city. The continuous triangular structure is reminiscent of kites, paper airplanes and flying birds, symbolizing the yearning for free life. World Expo Cultural Center: It looks like a flying saucer, light and agile.

Expo Center: The lobby is equipped with the world's tallest indoor water curtain information wall, a hollow LED screen of nearly 400 square meters and a vertical green wall of 500 square meters. The visual effect of these walls is amazing. As a large-scale public building in the riverside green space of the Expo site, the Expo Center does not deliberately express itself in its architectural form. Instead, it incorporates modern architectural visual concepts. The transparent exterior walls are bright and thorough. Standing in it, visitors can take in the surrounding scenery. All in sight. On the roof of the center, there is also an elaborate helipad. Throughout the Expo, this place will not only become a scenic spot, but will also serve as an operational command center and news center. Baosteel Grand Stage Baosteel Grand Stage is one of the seven indoor performance venues of the Shanghai World Expo. It was rebuilt from the original special steel workshop of Pudong Iron and Steel Company, a subsidiary of Baosteel Group. It records Baosteel's overall development of Pudong Iron and Steel Company in support of the Shanghai World Expo. Relocation History. It is composed of two stages, a large one and a small one. It is a semi-open landscape-style performance venue. While watching the performance, the audience can also enjoy the view of Shanghai's Pujiang River.

Not only the exterior wall of the exhibition hall, but also the interior of the exhibition hall is shining. The seven Roman columns at the entrance are filled with water, and the bright characters are shining in them. When you look at it at night, it is radiant. Inside the museum, there are tens of thousands of small lamp beads, flashing various patterns. Visitors looking up to the top of the museum feel like time and space are flowing, and they will not know where they are for a while. However, the most worthwhile place here is the International Style Street. There are two "streets" on the far left and right of the first-floor exhibition area. On the left is the "Japanese Culture Street", which is mainly Asian style, also known as Asia Street, on the right is the "International Gift Street" with European and American styles, also known as Western Street, which brings together displays of culture, technology, life and other aspects. The entrance to the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Pavilion is shaped like a tent. As the most common humanitarian relief material in wars and natural disasters, tents create a sense of reality of "being on site" and "in action", allowing the audience to Before entering the museum, I was already shocked by the power of humanitarian rescue operations. When the audience queues up at the entrance waiting area, the staff will distribute a red bracelet to each visitor. This not only arouses curiosity and association in the audience, but also allows everyone to realize the profound meaning of "people's hearts are connected". The museum is mainly composed of "Black Memory" (time and space corridor), "Light of Humanity" (circular screen theater) and "Action You and Me" (interactive area). These contents will all be displayed through the digital display behind the atomic mirror curtain wall. Present. The reflection of the mirror creates an effect that is both real and illusory. The "unbounded" visual appeal will make the audience feel that they are on the scene and that time and space are intertwined. The design of the World Trade Center Association Pavilion is mainly inspired by the "round sky and square earth" and "Bagua" in Chinese philosophy. There is a time and space tunnel at the entrance, allowing visitors to be in a cleverly designed space from the moment they enter the exhibition hall, and start a journey around the world trade. As a highly representative non-governmental trade organization exhibition hall, the World Trade Center Association Pavilion will also be held with themes such as "environmental protection", "information technology" and "fashion" around the four basic living needs of clothing, food, housing and transportation. A series of exciting activities. The New Zealand Pavilion is shaped like a flying wing, which is in line with their theme "Natural City: Living Between Heaven and Earth".

At the same time, in the New Zealand Pavilion, there is a priceless Maori jade, selected and presented by the Otago Museum of New Zealand. This is a jade pendant passed down from generation to generation in the hands of Maori chiefs. The eyes were made and carved from abalone shells by the skilled craftsmen of the Maori tribe. There is a Maori sitting cross-legged, with his head slightly tilted, and his thoughtful expression is lifelike. The entire building of the Malaysia Pavilion is composed of two high pitched roofs, with graceful and dynamic lines. On the first floor of the pavilion, the outer corridor and entrance are modeled after an Islamic mosque, and the roof is supported by colonnades, simulating the traditional longhouse model in terms of expression. The exterior wall of the pavilion draws on the texture of traditional Malaysian printing and dyeing, consisting of butterflies, flowers, birds and geometric patterns. Coming here, visitors can not only appreciate the charm of world cultural heritage sites such as Penang and Malacca in Malaysia, but also experience Malaysian urban life through mini golf and traditional Malaysian indoor games.

The Australian Pavilion has an undulating shape, inspired by the famous "Aiyas Rock" in the red desert of Australia, and has a wild beauty. The most interesting thing is that when the pavilion was first built, its appearance was actually orange. During the six months of the Expo, the color continued to deepen, and finally turned into a rich ocher red, bright and eye-catching. The mascot of the Australian Pavilion is a cartoon kookaburra with a huge head and colorful feathers, named "Pengpeng", which is lively and cute. The entire museum area is divided into three fascinating activity areas - "Travel", "Discovery" and "Enjoy". Indonesian Pavilion: Building a House with Bamboo The Indonesian Pavilion has four floors, and the entire pavilion is run through by a 600-meter-long passage. In the center of the Indonesia Pavilion, visitors will enjoy the beautiful waterfall landscape. As the passage continues upward, the waterfall will present a different visual perception. There will be several bamboos protruding from the wall at the top of the pavilion, which is very unique and interesting. Bamboo is an indispensable building material in Indonesia, and Indonesians firmly believe that bamboo will become a sustainable development material leading the future due to its green, environmentally friendly and tough characteristics. If you want to try Indonesian traditional food, then you must come to the Indonesian Pavilion. Here, the restaurant layout also uses bamboo and other decorative materials from local Indonesian restaurants.

The State Grid Enterprise Pavilion will be a two-part building covered with a grid, supporting a transparent crystal "magic box" with moving light and shadow, and brilliant streams of light. The grid-like texture of the two parts of the building appearance is interlaced in thickness and reality, and alternates between virtual and real. It reflects the integration of the urban network texture of the State Grid Enterprise Pavilion and the network structure of the power supply system, and is a metaphor for the innovation of the power grid with safe, high-quality, clean and reliable power supply. The most different thing from other exhibition halls is that the above-ground building of the State Grid Enterprise Pavilion is an exhibition hall, and the underground part is a high-tech substation specially designed to supply power to the Expo site and exhibition halls. It is known as the "Energy Heart" of the Shanghai World Expo. In order to highlight this function and guide the audience to experience the charm of "electricity" up close, the designer will specially connect the above-ground and underground parts to make it a unique and interesting new visit program.

SAIC-GM Pavilion Theme: Sustainable Power Mobility System China Shipbuilding Pavilion Theme: Ships, Make the City Better Private Enterprise Joint Pavilion Theme: Infinite Vitality Space Home Pavilion Theme: Harmonious City, People and Space Futurism Pioneer Department This year At the World Expo, there were many avant-garde and cutting-edge buildings that tested the audience's comprehension. It is still difficult to discern the clues. Self-built pavilions taking the future route are represented by the German Pavilion and the British Pavilion, which cover an area of ??6,000 square meters. Germany Pavilion: A wonderful balance. The creativity of the Germans, who are famous for their rigor, this time is surprising. They first invented a new word Balance, using the English words "balance" and "city" to form "harmonious city", and then moved a futuristic national pavilion to Area C. Architectural designer Wei Xili said: "The exhibition hall is composed of four geometric sculptures. The whole looks like it is suspended above the ground. The four buildings look shaky individually, but when combined together, they support each other and form a It has a stable balance and looks very harmonious. "The exterior wall of the exhibition hall uses 12,000 square meters of innovative silver luminous mesh, which has a high reflectivity against solar radiation, can shade the sun, and prevent the accumulation of heat in the hall. The "treasure of the museum" is the power ball, which is full of futuristic elements. Above the center of the 12-meter-high, three-story gallery-style theater hall, hangs a metal ball with a diameter of 3 meters and a weight of 1.2 tons. The ball is inlaid with 40 Thousands of LEDs look like giant shining pendulums. Under the encouragement of the virtual commentator, the audience shouted and clapped, which group's voice was louder and more uniform, and to which group the power ball would move. The louder the sound, the brighter the color of the sphere. When it stops, patterns such as Hello, Earth, and football will appear on the surface of the sphere. British Pavilion: Luminous Box "Dandelion" Giant Porcupine? Crystal Hedgehog? Prickly pear? Its official scientific name is Dandelion. The young British architect Thomas Heatherwick was finally able to defeat 46 opponents and win the championship because his plan was eccentric and avant-garde, and best represented the new image of Britain today - a country that is extremely creative, advocates invention, and science and technology. leading countries. The British Pavilion looks puzzling: a 20-meter-tall square box with six floors and rounded corners covered in "tentacles". These tentacles are 60,000 transparent acrylic rods, each about 7.5 meters long. They are evenly inserted into the exterior wall and look like they are growing out of the building. Interestingly, they are so soft that they sway gently in the breeze, making it feel like the entire pavilion is swaying. At night, each tentacle's built-in light source also causes the entire pavilion to glow brightly. Dandelions are not only beautiful to look at, they also tell stories. Different plant seeds are hidden in the tentacles, and the audience can appreciate them through transparent rods. What's even more amazing is that after the World Expo, these seeds will still be alive after being taken out, and they will take root and sprout in Chinese campuses. The traditionalist natural system breaks away from modern elements and returns to natural taste. Many exhibition halls use natural materials. The Indian pavilion has built the world's largest dome with 15 kilometers of bamboo; the Canadian pavilion's exterior walls are paved with Canadian redwood boards, and the interior walls are filled with green plants; the Swiss pavilion's exterior is hung with curtains made of soybean fiber. It can both generate electricity and degrade naturally after the exhibition; 1/4 of the Swedish pavilion is built with new wood. When it comes to the “leaders” of this camp, they are none other than the Spanish Pavilion and the Norwegian Pavilion. Spanish Pavilion: Small rattans weave into large bamboo baskets. Covered with 8,524 rattan panels, the Spanish Pavilion is winding and flowing, like the swaying skirt of a flamenco dancer. Spanish beauty designer Tagliabue proudly said that using rattan to build such a large-scale venue is the first in the history of architecture. These rattans are all made from Artemisia willow in northern China and are woven by Shandong craftsmen. The rattans come in three colors: original, brown and black. However, no paint is used. Instead, they are boiled in boiling water. Different colors will appear depending on the time of use. . Don’t worry that the “big bamboo basket” will be blown away by the typhoon. In fact, it is firmly connected to the “skeleton” made of 2,500 tons of steel pipes. Norway Pavilion: Carry wood to the end The Norwegian Pavilion not only uses wood to build its house, but also uses an all-wood structure inside, while all other pavilions are steel structures. The pavilion is constructed of 15 huge Norwegian "pine trees", and the exterior walls are decorated with soft bamboo, which fits the theme of the exhibition "Given by Nature". These giant "trees" are not real trees, they are glued wooden pillars ranging from 5 to 15 meters high. Each tree has roots fixed in the ground and four branches in the air. The tarpaulin is supported by the outer ends of the branches as attachment points, forming an undulating roof of the pavilion. Walking in such a space is like walking through a forest, breathing in the fragrance of pine and the wind from the Norwegian forest. Chinese Complex Elegant Department Foreign designers have made a big fuss about Chinese elements, not only to pay tribute to the host, but also to cater to Chinese tastes, among which the Austrian pavilion and the Polish pavilion are the most representative. Austria Pavilion: Chinese porcelain sings a graceful waltz. The exterior walls of the Austria Pavilion are made of red and white porcelain veneers, and the interior decoration also contains porcelain elements. The whole thing looks like an exquisite porcelain guitar, which means that Chinese porcelain exported to Europe since the Middle Ages has returned again. China. The logo of the museum is the Chinese character "人", and the two mutually supporting strokes interpret the concept of harmony between man, city and nature. At the same time, the shadow of the logo is the initial letter "A" of the name of Austria, which cleverly combines the cultural elements of China and Austria. Polish Pavilion: Chinese Dragon Holds Hands Polish Dragon Polish Pavilion is a hollow paper-cut and carved artwork.

When night falls, the magical changes of light and shadow are projected on the internal walls through the hollow paper-cut carvings, which are both real and illusory, fully interpreting the beauty of paper-cutting. Although the design concept comes from "the Polish folk art of paper-cutting", the general representative of the Polish exhibition area said that Poland is like "China in Europe" and the two countries have many similarities, such as a large number of world cultural heritage and scenic spots. The Polish Pavilion also specially arranged a dragon dance performance every morning. Four red Chinese dragons and four yellow Polish dragons will present wonderful performances together. Hedonism and Childlike Interest An ideal city is a city where people feel happy. Many exhibitors made a big fuss around "happiness". The Dutch pavilion with the theme of "Happy Street" hangs the "house" on the "street"; while the "breathing" Japanese pavilion looks like a silkworm baby. If children were asked to choose, the Russian Pavilion would most likely win because it is a city of dreams. Russia Pavilion: Children's dream paradise Baihua City is an intoxicating city of innocence. The big "mushroom" is the sewer. The cars on the street do not "drink" gasoline, but "eat" strawberry jam. The owner of Baihua City is a A child no taller than a cucumber. Russian writer Nikolay Nosov outlined such a fairy tale city in "The Adventures of Little Ignorance". In the Russian Pavilion, these will be presented one by one. When the audience walks on the ramp and looks at the mushrooms, flowers and plants around them, they will suddenly feel like members of Lilliput. The exhibition hall is divided into three parts: "Flower City", "Sun City" and "Moon City". In a childlike setting, there are flowers that store solar energy, fruit-shaped houses, giant dragonfly-shaped windmills, and biofuel-powered buildings. Cars are everywhere.
