The theme of the exposition will be "Better City – Better Life" and signifies Shanghai's new status in the 21st century as a major economic and cultural center. It is expected to generate the largest number of visitors in the history of the world's fairs in terms of gross numbers.
So apparently more money is being thrown into creating the Shanghai World Expo than went into the Olympics. " Be more civilized" campaigns are running round the clock in Shanghai, infrastructure and new mega buildings are going up at blazing speeds to help polish China's most metropolitan city for her own Coming Out extravaganza. Nations from all over the county are set to build inspiring pavilions, and hey Congrats to the US for finally getting on board and coming up for the funding!
This post is for talking about all the exciting developments taking place in Shanghai in the months running up to the big show. From pavilion construction to new funny photos of the mascot "haibao" this world's fair is shaping up to be as exciting as the Olympics despite the absence of Michael Phelps.
