With one month to go before the World Expo 2010, China’s financial capital Shanghai is gearing up for a tourism boom as it seeks to promote China’s most glamorous city to the world with the event known as the “Economic Olympics”.
The massive building site that will host the expo is looking increasingly impressive and the event is sure to be an eye-opener. China does big-scale public events better than any other country in the world, and the expo will be very much in that mould.
The city’s historic Bund promenade has reopened after extensive – and at €520 million, expensive – renovations.
The Bund showcase was one of the many events to mark the one-month countdown to the expo, which will be held from May 1st to October 31st.
