World Horticultural Expo 9. 2019 Beijing World Horticultural Expo extended information: Introduction to the 2010 Shanghai World Expo: The World Expo will be a milestone in the development of Shanghai. Shanghai, as the host city of the 2010 World Expo with the theme of city, has special significance.

In the process of preparing for the World Expo, Shanghai will inevitably build more excellent buildings, create future-oriented residential areas, enrich the concept of urban development, improve and enhance urban functions, create a model for future urban development, and promote China's urbanization process.

This World Expo has set up a special fund of US$100 million to provide convenience for developing countries to participate in the exhibition. This is also the highest record for previous World Expos.

This World Expo takes "City" as its theme for the first time, which is unprecedented in the 159-year history of the World Expo.

This theme highlights that human society has entered an important era, which is the urban era.

This era only lasted two hundred years - in 1800, the global urbanization rate was only 2%; in 1900, it rose to 13%; in 2007, more than half of the 6.7 billion villagers on the earth lived in cities.

How can cities make people's lives better?

How to show hope while giving people the confidence to cope with challenges. This World Expo proposes this theme, which is a manifestation of the development of the times.
