The World Expo 2025 kicked off in Osaka's Yumeshima Island this Saturday, unveiling a six-month celebration of global collaboration under the theme 'Designing Future Society of Our Lives.' Among the standout attractions is the China Pavilion, a 3,500-square-meter architectural marvel blending historical symbolism with modern vision.
The pavilion's design, inspired by ancient Chinese bamboo slips and scrolls, weaves cultural heritage into its sweeping curves. Located in Plot A7 of the International Exhibition Area, it ranks among the largest foreign-built structures at the Expo, offering visitors interactive exhibitions on renewable energy and smart city technology alongside traditional art displays.
Chinese officials emphasized the pavilion as a bridge for cross-cultural exchange, highlighting solar-integrated facades and AI-powered cultural installations. The immersive experience will run through October 13, 2025, coinciding with the Expo's focus on sustainable urban development solutions.
