Its design concept can be summarized as: "the crown of the Orient, flourishing China, the world's breadbasket, affluent people". China Pavilion consists of two parts: the National Pavilion and the Regional Pavilion. The spatial location and orientation of these two parts respectively reflect the understanding of the relationship between "heaven" and "earth" in oriental philosophy. National Pavilion for the "sky", rich sense of sculpture modeling body --- "Crown of the Orient" towering in the middle of the formation of open and standing trend; regional pavilions for the "ground", like a pedestal extended in the country under the pavilion, forming a thick dependence on the state.
