Background of the Expo site tour
The Shanghai World Expo site is located in the center of Shanghai, mainly in the riverfront area between the Nanpu Bridge and Lupu Bridge, and along the Huangpu River in the city of Shanghai on both sides of the layout.
After the opening of the Shanghai World Expo, the 5.28 square kilometers of the park will receive more than 70 million visitors in six months. There are very many pavilions in the park, and each pavilion will have a different program staged every day. The design of each pavilion is different from our traditional exhibition centers, and each pavilion has its own characteristics, and some of the pavilions' internal visit passages are not straight and regular shapes, so visitors need to queue up outside the venue most of the time, and they can visit the venue for up to 15 hours in a day.
Preparation before the tour
For a day trip to the Expo, not only is time valuable, it is simply golden, but before the tour you need to understand the following things:
1, even if how to go horseback riding, a day trip is only one-tenth of one percent of the more than one hundred countries involved in the pavilions. Why not take a nice walk, look around and play in a few of your favorite pavilions?
Tip: Generally, self-built pavilions require more investment and effort than rented pavilions, so it is recommended to spend your limited time on those self-built pavilions.
2, the whole pavilion of the World Expo is divided into Pudong and Puxi two pieces, Pudong and divided into A, B, C three districts, the most important Expo Axis, Expo Center, Performing Arts Center and Celebration Plaza, as well as all the countries, including the China Pavilion, venues in Pudong, in the three districts. Puxi is divided into two zones, D and E, which are mainly the Future Pavilion, Corporate Pavilion and Urban Best Practice Area. As a day-tripper, the basic activities for the day are in the three districts of Pudong.
3, the one-day tour route is designed to spend the least amount of time, to see the most pavilions, which is why this route will first go to the B area, and then go to the A and C areas, to try to avoid the morning and evening to go to the China Pavilion waiting and wasting a lot of time. The recommendations here are all self-built pavilions, and specific pavilions can be chosen according to your own preferences around this route we provide.
4, before going to buy a good ticket, know clearly the transportation and opening and closing time (9:00-24:00).
