A Shanghai nurse won a beauty pageant at the Slovakia Pavilion yesterday thanks to her knowledge about Slovakia and her beautiful voice.

She took the title "Miss Visitor of the Slovakia Pavilion" out of 16 contestants, all visitors to the pavilion. They answered questions about Slovakia and the 2010 World Expo and sang folk songs of the country in the competition.

The decisive question was about the population of Slovakia and Shen Jin, the winner, knew the answer.

Her prizes included two Expo tickets, and VIP privileges to some popular pavilions such as the USA Pavilion, the Australia Pavilion, the Spain Pavilion and the Saudi Arabia Pavilion.

By hosting the pageant, the staff of the pavilion aimed to create some fun and joy for those queuing in hot weather.

The pavilion also hosted games and contests for Children's Day and Father's Day.
