Easy-access entrance
The Luxembourg Pavilion and the Finland Pavilion have joined the Netherlands Pavilion and the "We are the World" Pavilion to open easy-access entrances for low-carbon emission travel cardholders.
The easy-access entrances will be open during the week between Aug 22 and 28.
The price of the low-carbon transport cards is 40 yuan ($5.80), half of which covers to the cost of the card, and the rest is donated to a project on lowering carbon emissions. The donation from one such card can reduce one ton of carbon emissions.
The card is available at dzpw.com, yihaodian.com, Home Inns and the "We are the World" Pavilion.
More night events
Expo organizers have prepared more events to entertain visitors at night, as more of them tend to tour the Expo Garden during late hours to stay away from the sizzling sun during the day.
The Baosteel Stage has been hosting a series of theme parties featuring Chinese cultural elements. Visitors can make artistic crafts together with Chinese masters of intangible cultural heritage and other craftsmen of traditional arts to have a better understanding of traditional Chinese culture.
At the African Square, each visitor can be a dancer and a drummer by dancing with African artists and playing exotic drums.
Big screens in the Expo Garden will promote the events on a daily basis.
