OSAKA, Japan, April 30, 2025 -- Since its officially opening on April 13, the Osaka World Expo's China Pavilion has become one of the most popular attractions at the Expo. By incorporating traditional Chinese cultural elements such as bamboo slips, Chinese characters, and scrolls and presenting exhibits that connect the past, present, and future, the China Pavilion boasts the theme of "Building a Community of Life for Man and Nature—Future Society of Green Development." As of the end of April, it had received nearly 90,000 visitors, over 5,700 per day on average and 8,000 on weekends.
The China Pavilion consists of three segments: "Harmony between Humanity and Nature" "Green Mountains and Clear Waters" and "Endless Life."
The "Harmony between Humanity and Nature" section highlights China's ancient ecological wisdom, which emphasizes respect and reverence for nature. It features a large multimedia display themed around the 24 solar terms and a digital presentation of Pictures of Tilling and Weaving, the world's earliest agricultural encyclopedia. By using modern technology, it showcases replicas of iconic artifacts such as the oracle bones unearthed in Xiaotun Village, the He Zun, and the copper plates of the imperial edict on unifying weights and measures of the Qin dynasty, as well as key archaeological sites like Sanxingdui, Liangzhu, and Yinxu.
The "Green Mountains and Clear Waters" section explains China's ecological philosophy. Through multimedia installations, it features projects such as the Dujiangyan irrigation system, the world's earliest water conservancy project, the 2,500-year-old mulberry-dike fishpond system and so on.
The "Endless Life" section focuses on China's breakthroughs in deep space exploration, deep sea research and artificial intelligence. Highlights include the first-ever close-up comparison display of soil from the moon's far side and near side, live video interaction between Chinese astronauts in the Tiangong Space Station and expo visitors, a simulated cabin of the Jiaolong deep-sea submersible showing rare footage from 7,062 meters below the sea, and an AI model that brings the beloved mythological figure Sun Wukong to life and discusses past and present topics with visitors, composing poems, and creating art.
The China Pavilion has hosted various events that promote Kunqu Opera and the 24 solar terms, as well as Chinese companies including iFLYTEK and COSCO. In the coming months, dozens of Chinese provinces, regions, and municipalities will bring their amazing exhibits and performances to make the pavilion even a bigger draw.
