A visitor from the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region received a Portugal football team kit with the signature of Cristiano Ronaldo as the 888,888th visitor to the Portugal Pavilion this morning.

Bian Jiang, the lucky visitor, was a fan of the Portugal football team. He watched the match between Portugal and Cote d'Ivoire of the ongoing World Cup.

Located in Zone C, the pavilion has the theme "Portugal, a Square for the World" to highlight the nation's position as a gateway to the Atlantic and its innovative environmental practices.

The 2,000-square-meter pavilion is covered in cork, a Portuguese-sourced, recyclable and environmentally friendly material.

Inside, the exhibition is divided into four "moments" that showcase the country's history, economy, culture and its lasting relationship with China.

The pavilion focuses on the concept of sustainability and its role in Portuguese economic and environmental policies.
