China Celebrates World Expo 2010 - Shanghai
After 2008 Beijing Olympic, another world event - 2010 World Expo is just opened in Shanghai, China on May 1. For China, the Shanghai Expo will stand proudly in the tradition of world fairs that began with London’s Great Exhibition in 1851. Almost 70 million people are expected to witness the pinnacle of their country’s achievement and glimpse the future. For most Chinese, it will be their only chance to taste what life is like abroad.Like the 2008 Olympics, the event is showcasing China’s growing economic and geopolitical sway, both for the world and for its own public. I have collected some magnificent photos on web, which showcase the splendid firework on opening of the World Expo as well as those unique pavilions presented in exploration.
