Early to queue (more than eight o'clock, I think), into the park, you can pick a popular pavilion to go to see, generally will not queue, for example, from the door of the 8th in to see Straight to the European zone to see the German pavilion, if it is the first to go to the Asian zone, go first to shoot Saudi Arabia or the Japanese pavilion, the South Korean pavilion do not go, the name is more but not good, I think it is a waste of time to line up. To go to the Saudi Arabia Museum but also early, it is best to see the map from the nearest door to go and then do the park car darted to the door of the museum, or else the queue will soon be long. China Pavilion do not have to think about it, want to see if six o'clock in the morning to go out to queue up, in the entrance can get the day of the China Pavilion reservation, reservation time is not certain, there may be the evening, but it does not matter to go in to see
If the time to enter the park is late, you said nine thirty to go in, is it refers to the time of the park or the time has been in the time to go in? Because there's also a line to get into the park, and when it's crowded the line for security is going to be half a bell. Assuming you get in after 10:00, basically, don't consider the pavilions that are too popular, or don't wait in line if you have all day.
You said that Gate 5 I have not walked, do not quite remember where it is, the Expo Park is mainly divided into Pudong and Puxi two big blocks, Puxi are almost all corporate pavilions. The national pavilions are all in the east, and you can take the ferry from the west to the east, which is free, and there is a guide in the park.
Then focus on the East District, I guess you will not go to the West District one day. You can get a map of the Expo when you enter the park, the top part of the Expo map is the West Zone, the bottom part is the East Zone, separated by a river. The left part of the East Zone is Europe and America, and the right is Asia.
The more popular pavilions in the Asian zone are China, Saudi Arabia, Japan, South Korea and the United Arab Emirates. China and Taiwan are required to make reservations, and the others line up to get in. China Pavilion I did not go in do not know, Japan Pavilion has a lot of novelties, such as robots that can pull jasmine flowers, Korea Pavilion queue will be in the pavilion at the entrance of the stage performances, Korean songs and dances ah, gongs and drums ah and so on. Saudi Arabia Pavilion is to see a 360 ° 3D movie, time is not long, we scramble to go to see is because the projection equipment cost more than a billion, the effect is superb. All of the pavilion is mostly to show the local characteristics of the picture or object, some of the pavilion in West Asia is simply a big bazaar (market) are yelling to sell jewelry and so on. Some countries will give out some small souvenirs, but I only received a bag from Bahrain, and these gifts are not always available, most of them may give out two souvenir books only. The gifts presented online basically won't be there, there are too many people, keep sending are going broke.
Europe and the United States (exactly non-Asian pavilion area) of the pavilion is more, Europe and the United States area of the popular pavilion is Germany, France, Belgium - European Union Pavilion, Spain, Australia, such a large museum, the German Museum is more popular because he showed a very comprehensive, from humanities to science and technology have, and the interaction is very good, the French Pavilion has seven paintings, such as Van Gogh, the real works. Belgium has a lot of diamond jewelry and chocolate, I was told that the door will be issued chocolate, but unfortunately I did not receive, we only have a small chocolate-flavored cookies.
Saying that it is best not to go to the queue of the pavilion, first of all, the British Museum if there is no activity do not go, because there is no show if you can only look at the seeds, very boring. The Dutch pavilion is to let you climb stairs, the Danish pavilion is to let you see the model mermaids. If you don't queue up, go and have a look, queue up and don't go in.
Iceland, Thailand and other countries in the exhibition area is mainly to see the introduction of short films, the queue is not long if you can go to see. Each screening is about ten minutes, so it is a set of people let in, and the line is usually not more than 15 minutes.
Additionally some do not have to queue most of the pavilion is a joint pavilion, because the display of more countries, the pavilion area is relatively large, basically not much of a queue. The African Union Pavilion is still worth going to see, no queue can also see a lot of countries, and there are performances, other Union Pavilion and the Caribbean Union Pavilion, the European Union Pavilion one, two, three, to Asia, there is also a Union Pavilion one, two, three.
Tour Strategy Well
From the beginning of the park to pick a relatively large, good reputation of the museum to see, and then along the road will be nearby museum to see, as long as the queue is not long can go to see. (The concept of the team is not long you'd better ask the person in charge of the next venue, ask him how long he needs to line up, and in his time can be slightly reduced, because every time I queue up the time is short language expected time) generally half an hour or less is still acceptable. According to the time estimate, you look at a large museum and then you can look around the four or five small museums can go to eat. Eating is also recommended to eat nearby, for example, if you are in the Africa Pavilion, eat in the Africa side, do not run to the food center.
Insert a sentence, each meal is basically to thirty or forty it, of course, cheap have more than twenty eighty-nine, but depending on what location you are, cheap or less. When you eat, you can study the map to see where you want to go next, if you are far away, you can do the bus within the Expo, are free
After lunch, don't pick up the queue of people, go to the pavilion without queuing, such as the African Union Pavilion, the midday and afternoon are generally active performances and so on. Visiting route is also close along the road to see, do not go back and forth around, will be delayed.
The best noon to prepare some dry food snacks, because you are out of the park time is relatively early, 7:00, so it is recommended that you do not eat dinner, pad your stomach, or three or four o'clock when you eat an afternoon tea, wait until six o'clock when the people began to be less, you can go to see some of the larger museums, such as Australia, Spain, and so on, later in the evening a lot of museums do not have to queue up, I look at the day of the Spanish Museum, we play together! My friend, he had to queue for an hour at noon to see it, and I didn't have to queue up at night to get in directly. So if it's not a hard and fast rule, it's recommended that you get out of the park later.
Every plaza has activities, pay attention to the park notice and listen to the radio, walking tired to go to the plaza near the sit a while, while watching the program and rest.
There is also a reservation machine outside the park and outside the venue, but I've never had a successful reservation. So when you enter the park to see if you can get an appointment is best, the reservation time may be the evening, but it does not matter generally have a reservation, as long as it is the day of the basic let people in. I don't think it's surprising that you can't get an appointment, because there are a lot of people in China.
It is also recommended to bring an empty bottle and a sun hat, no water cup to the inside to buy one, drink after the bottle do not throw. There is a lot of drinking water in the park.
Talking about the Expo passport, into the museum to knock chapter with, have this hobby to buy a separate passport (this thing is not good to buy, the park almost all of the licensed store door will write a passport has been sold out, depending on luck if you are catching up with the stock on the purchase of it), Shanghai Expo store also sells, so if you see it when you are shopping, it is best to buy it outside, or in the park may not be able to buy it. I use the map stamped, my colleagues have bought passports, but also buy to read a little book, stamped in the book, as well as in the notebook stamped, of course, there are also not stamped, depending on personal interest.
Lastly, if possible, it is recommended to buy a book to see the introduction of the point of view, I am leaving Shanghai at the airport to see, 25 a book, I regret ah, should be bought and then go to see, because a lot of people are confused to see over, do not know to see what, there is an introduction to the words to know what is lined up to see, don't be like me, four days down to do not remember what the light feel like to see a lot of a lot of a lot of a lot of a lot of a lot, a question is still do not know the specific good. I'm not sure what's so great about it.
Just say these things, I wish you a good time!
