World Fair Come Back

5 years ago, world expo was in Shanghai China where it is the largest expo site ever and this attracted several ten million of visitors, actually I and my dad are part of them. You might not know what is the world expo are about? , the world expo is the universal exhibition which contains many pavilions, each pavilion displays character of each country almost around the world, Can you guess when it will be arranged again? That is this year, 2015! To be exact, it has opened at 1st may!

The BBC News recently published “Italy opens ‘feed theplanet’ Expo” (2015), Milan Expo 2015 is opening now with “food as theme which focuses on nutrition and combating globally”. There are 145 participating countries which contains 54 national pavilions, Italy hope this will help their economic better because this will attract visitors around 20 million and at least 10 million ticket are sold out before the expo opened, even if some trouble occurred along the expo opening such as protest.

I can remember few things which I am impressed of one-day tour at the Shanghai Expo because it passed long time ago. The first thing come to my mind is there was the huge number of people, therefore, I had to wait for long time to see each pavilions. Nevertheless, there are some pavilion did not attract too much people, so I can visit them without getting in line. The next impression is that, the first pavilion which I want to see is Thailand’s pavilion definitely. After reading the expo map, I and my dad went straight ahead to there. When we got there, we were all surprised. Do you why? because of a queue of a hundred of foreigners in front of the pavilion entrance. Last but not least, I can try a lot of different dessert and food which I have not even seen it before.

I recommend you visit world expo once, there are a lot of interesting, for example, you will see spectacular pavilion building first and when you get inside the pavilion of each nation you always see different new technology, exciting presentation, splendid decoration and so on. In my opinion, this exhibition is not only display the spectacular things, it also provide the visitor with the new technology, knowledge, other country culture and this can lead to development in education and business. It is some kind of exchange culture exhibition.


After I read this news, I search more information about Milan Expo 2015. I found a lot of travel agent introduce customer the new package tour which include the Milan Expo ticket. I think the ticket which is sold out, most of them may be bought by travel agent. This is another choice for you if you want to visit this universal exhibition.

    1. I really glad that you want to go there after read this blog. Anyway, I do agree with you, many foreigners like Thai unique character , particularly traditional outfit.

      I saw Thai pavilion from the TV news last night, inside it is really interesting, government bring very modern technology to present how we produce our food supply such as how we grow rice. Visitors will feel like they are in the rice field too. That's great.

    1. To be honest, I don't like crowed people as well. But I think it is worthy to have new experience once.

      If you are interested in different dessert and food, this expo would display the widest variety of food from over the world ever because of its food theme.

    1. That's true. I had a great time there, even if I had to face with very crowed people. But it is worthy. This year the theme is very interesting and I will go there if I have enough money.

  4. Sounds interesting topic. I had never ever been to world expo before. I do agree with you guys that it would be awesome to visit once in our lives time.
    By the way, the first pavillion that i would love to visit is Thailand's pavilion and then China's pavilion.

    Because China's pavilion in Milan expo 2015 designed a pavilion in concept " a cloud hovering area land of hope". This includes a filed of crops and wave like roof overhead and also they planned to use large bamboo panels to create a series of Shingles across the roof. Moreover, the pavilion's floating roof is designed as a timber structure that references the raised beam system found in traditional chinese architecture, but it is adapted to accommodate modern construction technology. So,It sounds amazing to see the old chinese traditonal combines with new high technology.
    This is why the world expo attracts a lot of visitors to come.

    1. You had some information of Chinese pavilion already, I do not know that before. Thank you very much for giving this details. I think their concept is very attractive and their presentation with high technology is exciting. I really want to see Chinese pavilion as well and it would be exactly my second-visit pavilion if it does not far from Thai pavilion.
