World Expo Park opening time is 9:00 ~ 24:00, *** 15 hours. And the exhibitors exhibition area opening time (i.e. opening time) for 9:30 ~ 22:30, *** 13 hours. Every day, the park prohibits admission at 21:00, and most pavilions prohibit admission at 22:00. If you visit after 17:00 on weekdays (May 4, 2010~September 30, 2010; October 8, 2010~October 24, 2010), you can purchase a night ticket on the spot at the park's various entrances for RMB 90, again with entry prohibited at 21:00.
Maybe you will have a question, what can visitors do when the venues are closed at 9:00~9:30 in the morning and 22:30~24:00 in the evening? In fact, the Expo is not only to see the exhibition, the park every day there will be more than 100 cultural performance activities, in these activities, the most exciting is the daily opening and closing ceremony. Throughout the entire duration of the Expo (184 days), there will also be National Pavilion Days for each country. The opening ceremony and most of the National Pavilion Day opening ceremonies are held at 9:00~9:30, so it is recommended that you arrive at the park around 8:30 and enter the park at 9:00 sharp.
Day 1
At 8:30am, line up at the Yaohua Road entrance and exit to enter the park. 9:00am, when you are ready to enter the park, go to the reservation machine at the entrance to make a reservation for a visit to the China Pavilion.
The bulk of visitors to the park's various pavilions are on-site reservations, if you follow the travel agency to save the trouble of reservations. Super popular venues like the China Pavilion, the organizers are implementing a 100% reservation system, so enter the park first reservation, so as not to be able to visit the regret. There are 200 reservation machines at the entrances and exits of the park***, ask a volunteer at the entrance to know where they are, and of course there are volunteers at the reservation machines who will teach you how to operate them, so just bring your valid ID and ticket.
After you've made your reservation, you'll be ready for your day's visit. Enter the park and walk down the Expo Axis to the end of Celebration Square, where the grand opening ceremony will take place. After that, head to the Expo Center, where the daily opening ceremony for National Pavilion Day is held, and if you're lucky, you'll get to meet one of the country's leaders or one of the biggest stars.
After seeing the Expo Center, you can go to the Theme Pavilion, where there are four pavilions, namely the Urbanist Pavilion, Life Pavilion, Earth Pavilion, and Public Participation Pavilion. Although these several venues are all in one building, but to separate the queue, usually choose to visit the first with less queue, there is no need to waste valuable time. Here to tell you is that, in principle, each venue in the park has two routes to visit, the fast track is for the exclusive use of visitors who walk around, it is recommended that you take the slow track in the main venues and countries build their own pavilions.
The Life-Sunshine Pavilion in the City People Pavilion is worth a look, the first pavilion for the disabled in the history of the Expo, and the volunteers and docents are all disabled.
The Earth Pavilion has a catwalk with a globe underneath, and as you continue on the tour you'll see that the globe is home to a large dome movie theater.
After visiting the Theme Pavilion, it should be time for lunch. If just from the Expo Center to the theme pavilion, you will find in the Expo Center and the theme pavilion between the Chinese food street, where 31 provinces, cities, autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the Central Government of China's specialties, the Chinese cuisine of the eight major cuisines are available. Although there are some free tasting, but there will be a lot of people, you should pay to find a seat, provided that there is a seat.
After you've had your fill, head to the Performing Arts Center to catch a show and take a break from the air conditioning. The Oriental Song and Dance Troupe has two free performances at the Performing Arts Center every day, so just check the schedule before you go.
After watching the show from the Performing Arts Center you can go to the direction of the China Pavilion, the first to see the Taiwan Pavilion, the building how to look like a flush toilet, but inside the led dome sky light is a highlight. The designer of this building once designed the Taipei 101 building.
This time is usually about 13:30, go to the China Pavilion queue it. The queue at the China Pavilion can take as little as 45 minutes or as much as 2 hours or more, so be prepared. However, because of the unique design of the China Pavilion, you will find that the sunlight is blocked by the China National Pavilion when you are queuing up, which is called "self-shading", and the China National Pavilion was designed with queuing in mind.
After you get in, take the elevator, and the first thing you'll see is the 49-meter level. There are a few highlights there, one is a circle of toughened glass floor around it like the Pearl of the Orient, and at your feet is the waiting plaza, so high! Second, there is a very good movie, must must watch, that is Lu Chuan made. Lu has made three movies - one "Cocoanuts", one "Nanking! Nanjing! and the other one is the one in the China National Pavilion. Also, there's a Qingming Shanghe Tu on the 49-meter level, which is over 100 meters wide! The people inside still walk around.

Day 2
The second day of the trip I still recommend that you arrive at the park at 8:30, recommended to enter the park from the gate of Evergreen Road to visit. The first thing to do is to make a reservation, and I recommend that you make a reservation for the American, British, French and Swiss pavilions, either in the afternoon or in the evening.
From the Evergreen Road entrance into the park on the right is the Thai Pavilion, it is very easy to find, a strong Thai flavor, there is a mascot, green, called "Tai", you can take pictures with him to commemorate the roughly browse out of the pavilion to continue to visit. In front of the Thai Pavilion, there is a big rusty building, which is the Australian Pavilion. The Australian side attaches great importance to participating in the World Expo and it is worth seeing. In Australia, the right hand side of the round music box like building is the Singapore Pavilion, the venue is not big, the top floor has a garden, you can rest, there is a musical fountain on the square. Next to the Singapore Pavilion is the Malaysia Pavilion, a typical building in Southeast Asia, which has a stage where you can watch the performances of the 47 ethnic groups in Malaysia, in addition to the introduction of some of the Malaysian tourist cities. After watching the show, we came to the New Zealand Pavilion, where we could see the Maori dance performance before we entered the pavilion. You will be attracted by the beautiful scenery of New Zealand, because the special effects of the pavilion is "Lord of the Rings" special effects team to do, immersive. Out of the New Zealand Pavilion, look for the building next to a lot of bamboo through the roof, that is the Indonesian Pavilion, from the New Zealand Pavilion to the Indonesian Pavilion is separated by a Cambodian Pavilion, because it is a rented pavilion, you can see but not to see. In fact, you only need to take pictures of Indonesia Pavilion. After visiting the Indonesian Pavilion, you can go to the Joint Pavilion of International Organizations, Brunei Pavilion, Philippine Pavilion, you will find that you have already circled around, this is where you can take a break and have something to eat at the leisure plaza.
Directly, please get on the elevated walkway and head towards the Huangpu River, go down when you see the blue UN Pavilion, that's the United Nations Joint Pavilion, a must see. Next to the World Meteorological Organization Pavilion is the best, that is the only international organization to build its own pavilion, if the weather is good you can see a rainbow outside the venue. Further on, the Red Cross Pavilion is also worth seeing, with its white tent-like building. Next to the light blue building is the Pacific Union Pavilion, skimming through. Outside is the theme plaza, see the show. Toward the United Nations Pavilion is two rental pavilions - the World Trade Pavilion and the International Information Pavilion, less crowded if you go to see it.
It should be noon by this point in the tour, so please eat and drink well, because the following journey is very exciting. Cross the road next to the United Nations Pavilion (Evergreen Road), see a rattan basket, that is the Spanish Pavilion, must see. Next to the leisure square at the entrance is the Monaco and Serbia Pavilions, both rented pavilions, you can skip them.

Next to Belgium is Poland, also to see, like a box of paper cutouts wrapped with a cafe. Next to the Polish Pavilion, by the side of the Huangpu River, there is a cable car to sit, is the Swiss Pavilion, personally thought the cable car is its only highlight, imax is not as big as the Saudi Arabia Pavilion, the content is not good. However, the facade of the Swiss Pavilion will be flashing, we use the camera flash to shine at it, it will convert wind energy and light energy into electricity. Next to the Swiss Pavilion is the French Pavilion, which has a lot of art treasures, including Rodin's "Age of Bronze". There will also be a large wedding ceremony for 2010 couples. Next to the French Pavilion, on the side of the Polish Pavilion is the German Pavilion, which has a ball that swings when you shout loudly, and many interactive exhibits, so put away your camera, guard against thieves, and have a good time inside.

Day 3
On the first two days of the trip, everyone had already edged out the pavilions in the Expo's Pudong campus. Many people think that the pavilions in Puxi are not the main focus of the Expo, but as long as you know about the Expo, you will find that corporate pavilions also play a very important role in the Expo, and the organizers of the Expo have also provided a place called the "Urban Best Practices Area," which allows you to learn about the efforts of various countries to improve the quality of life in the city.
Third
On the third day, we still want you to be at the entrance to the park by 8:30 a.m. Take subway line 8 to Xizang. Take the subway line 8 and get off at the South Xizang Road station, which is the largest entrance to the Puxi Expo.
The first thing you'll see is the old factory building converted into the Jiangnan Shipbuilding Museum, which in layman's terms is the China Shipbuilding Enterprise Museum. Inside you can see the history of China's shipbuilding, as well as the model of Zheng He's treasure ship, more than 400 years ago, Zheng He's fleet is invincible ah, what Columbus, Magellan are the later.
From the China Shipbuilding Museum out of the direction of the Nanpu Bridge, first go to the Chinese private enterprise pavilion, Alibaba, Red Star Macalline, such as private enterprises will be jointly exhibited in it. And then the Vanke Pavilion, as China's largest real estate developer, is indeed quite rich! That pavilion is made of pressed wheat stacks, so you can go and see what Chinese cities will look like in 2049. Next to Vanke is the Yuanda Pavilion, this air conditioning company is amazing, the architectural conception and design of the arena reflects environmental protection, and the construction of the arena can be completed in a short period of time, in addition to the demonstration of new energy-saving and environmentally friendly air conditioning.
After seeing the Yuanda Pavilion, we will go to the Urban Best Practices Area, and the rest of the corporate pavilions will be visited in the afternoon. After the past Osaka, Taipei pavilions are considered good, as well as the case of Sao Paulo, Brazil are worth seeing. After seeing the footbridge, go up, in close to Zhongshan South Road side is the best urban best practice area of the northern construction case area.
There's the Shanghai Eco-Home, which shows how innovative modern living environments can be. There's also the century-old pawnshop, Tak Seng Press in Macau, up where you'll find the Jin Yong Library, where your favorite martial arts characters will appear, and if you're lucky you'll run into Jin Yong himself signing books. Also good are the Daming Palace in Xi'an and Tengtou Village in Ningbo. Abroad I recommend the Zero Carbon Pavilion in London, Hamburg House in Hamburg, Tent City in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, and Bamboo House in Madrid. By the way, I forgot to tell you that the Urban Best Practice Area is an exhibit in itself, and all the lighting effects come from a design in Lyon, France.
