The Spain Pavilion has just been completed, looking like a huge basket with 8,542 pieces of rattan-covered steel and glass structures outside.
It will be open on April 23 and 25 for a trial run of the Expo site. The pavilion took designers and workers one year to complete construction.
The steel frame of the structure has been "dressed" in 8,524 wicker panels in brown, beige, and black. Sunlight filters through the panels, creating a beautiful scene.
The black panels form the shapes of Chinese characters - sun and moon, for instance. All reference elements of nature.
Three exhibition rooms, with installations by Spanish film makers from three decades, will be inside.
A six-minute film made its premier inside the pavilion yesterday, which blends nature with flamenco, passion, sports and arts to explore the "origin" of Spanish culture.
Benedetta Tagliabue, the designer of the Spain Pavilion, shares her visions.
A six-minute film made its premier inside the pavilion yesterday, which blends nature with flamenco, passion, sports and arts to explore the "origin" of Spanish culture.
It will offer tapas with live performances from musicians, comedians and illusionists at 6pm and 8pm every day. There will be flamenco shows every day in September.
The average cost for a meal at the pavilion will be 280 yuan (US$41.06) to 300 yuan.
