Theme: Harmony in Diversity
Pavilion Area: Around 2,000 Square Meters
Location: Within Zone A of the Expo site
Groundbreaking Date: April 28, 2009
Building Identity: Lahore Fort
With the theme of “Harmony in Diversity”, Pakistan Pavilion presents a blend of Pakistani culture, tradition, modernity and history, etc.
The design inspiration of the pavilion comes from “Lahore Fort, Pakistan” listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. At Expo 2010, the pavilion will showcase the “Lahore Fort” built of new materials with new technology.
With a history of nearly 1000 years, Lahore Fort was built in 1025, and was given its current design in 1566. It is the landmark building of Lahore, the cultural center of Pakistan, presenting an imprint of culture diversity. Visitors will have a glimpse of the former royal garden at Expo 2010.
The Pakistan Pavilion will focus on the interpretation of the city’s distillation of Pakistan and will display the customs of the ancient nation intertwined with tradition and modernity, culture and history. In the pavilion, visitors will be able to experience the life of local urban and rural residents through audio and multimedia presentations.
In the pavilion, the long-lasting friendship between Pakistan and China will be showcased—— the commercial relations, starting from the Silk Road, are the strong bonds between people of two nations.
In the pavilion, distinctive Pakistani dances will be performed by the national dancers. Pakistani cuisine, with a strong ethnic flavor, is also an important component. Visitors can enjoy the distinctive clothing and exotic dances while tasting the local food, such as barbecue with secret sauce, local mellow milk tea “Chai”, etc.
