Enter Puxi Park at the Bansongyuan Road entrance in the morning on the first day

Enter the park from the Bansongyuan Road entrance at 9 am, and you will be greeted by the city’s best practice area. As soon as I saw the information point and volunteers, I quickly asked them for a map of the Shanghai World Expo site. This map is very detailed and explains the exhibition halls, transportation, catering and major activities in the park.

After entering the park, walk straight east. At the end, you will find the Ningbo Tengtou Case Pavilion. This is the only rural practice case pavilion in the Expo and is worth a visit. You can see a field of rice seedlings in front of the door from a distance, and the natural breath comes to your face.

Next, turn around and go forward. You might as well go to the Hangzhou Pavilion. The Hangzhou Pavilion has a "water wall with 500 people talking". The 500 smiling faces collected were made into 500 rotatable square boxes, which were hung on the wall. There were old people, children, and tourists. On the back of the box, there was not only the name of the owner of the smiling face, but also a message to Hangzhou. So, you can go and see if there are any acquaintances on the photo wall, maybe there are some of your relatives or friends.

Continuing to the west, the Urban Future Museum, Vanke Museum, State Grid Museum, etc. along the way are worth a visit. The "Ant Nest Adventure Hall" in Vanke Museum may keep many children in their footsteps. The walls in the hall are made of steep rocks and cliffs. When you board the "hot air balloon" lift, a vivid little ant appears in the window and tells you the secrets of the ant kingdom.

Take the ferry to Pudong Park at noon on the first day

It is good to be able to see four or five pavilions in one morning. It is recommended to eat after 1 pm to avoid the dining rush hour. It is recommended to choose restaurants based on the principle of proximity. Don't look at the Shanghai World Expo Park, which is just a slap in the face on the map, but it's not that close by walking. To the south of Vanke Hall are restaurants such as Papa John's and South Beauty. Of course, if you are particularly particular about food, you can also decide on dining spots and plan a tour route after getting the map of the Expo. However, if you visit Puxi District first, it is recommended that you don’t go to Pudong District across the river for lunch. Because the park is so big, finding restaurants is also very troublesome.

At 2pm, go south to the Huangpu River and take a ferry to Pudong Park. After getting off the boat, it is recommended to take the Expo bus and go directly west along the Expo Avenue to visit the African Union Pavilion. This pavilion is the largest of the 11 joint pavilions at the World Expo and has a very strong African element. Maybe, you can also encounter indigenous dance.

Come out at 3 o'clock, turn around and look eastward to admire the novel buildings of the European and American museums and take photos. Outside the Belgian Pavilion and other national pavilions, there are shops selling local snacks. Those who are interested in delicious food can buy and taste them.

At 4 o'clock, the peak flow of people in European and American museums is almost over, and you can choose to enter the venue in a relatively short queue. The Swiss Pavilion has a cable car that takes you from the bottom to the top of the pavilion, so this pavilion looks relatively relaxed. If you like football, you can go to the Brazil Pavilion. It shows Brazilian football matches on a large semi-circular screen, which looks very enjoyable.

At 7 o'clock, have dinner. Many European pavilions such as Türkiye and France have restaurants inside, which taste good but are also expensive. There are several coffee shops next to the exhibition hall where you can also order food, and the price is not cheap. A piece of pasta costs 60 yuan. If you want something more affordable, there are Chinese fast food restaurants such as Da Niang Dumplings and Zhen Kung Fu next to the American Pavilion. The location of the restaurant is marked on the Expo site guide map.

After 8 o'clock, enjoy the night view of the Expo Park and continue to visit the European Pavilions.

Get the China Pavilion reservation ticket first in the morning the next day

The visiting route on this day is mainly eastward. Arrive at the Shangnan Road entrance of Pudong Park before 9 o'clock. After entering, quickly find the reservation machine nearby and try to get the reservation coupon for the China Pavilion. Then visit the exhibition halls that interest you. It should be noted here that the appointment time is based on the number of appointments. Maybe the appointment time you see is 11 noon, or it may be 4 p.m. Don't hesitate, just take the number directly. If you hesitate for a while, you may lose your ticket.

You can visit Area B first in the morning. When you see the splendid rooftops and towering spiers from a distance, you are not far from the Thailand Pavilion. This is a building that looks like both a palace and a temple. In the Thailand Pavilion, you can not only appreciate Thai-style paintings and carvings, taste Thai food, but also learn about Thai history and experience Thai life through 360-degree water screen projection.

In addition, the meteorological museum in the international organization exhibition area is worth a visit. There are teams in the Singapore Pavilion both outside and inside the pavilion, so be fully mentally prepared.

The next day at noon, enjoy a delicious meal and then visit the venue

Don’t worry too much about lunch on this day, because there is a large catering shopping mall in Area B. There are Chinese provincial and municipal style restaurants, as well as Hangzhou Snack Zhiweiguan. Of course, if everyone comes to eat in this area, there will still be a queue. Therefore, it is recommended that you ask a member of your family to go and queue first.

After lunch, we continued walking eastward to see the Oman Pavilion, Pakistan Pavilion, and Israel Pavilion. We also took a look at the Sri Lanka Pavilion. The Saudi Arabian Pavilion is the second largest pavilion in the World Expo after China, with a total investment of over one billion yuan. It is also the only foreign self-built pavilion independently designed by a Chinese design unit. The date palm tree is a symbolic plant of Saudi Arabia. The roof of the top floor of the Saudi Arabia Pavilion will be covered with 150 date palm trees. The Saudi Pavilion also has the world's largest IMAX theater. Then go to the Morocco Pavilion, and then you will see the UAE Pavilion.

As the sun sets, just take a walk to see the Lebanon Pavilion, Iran Pavilion, North Korea Pavilion and Uzbekistan Pavilion. Across the road there are two venues worth seeing - the Japanese Pavilion and the Korean Pavilion. Between them are the Vietnam Pavilion and the Asian Joint Pavilion. Walk along the Expo Avenue towards the Cultural Center. If you are lucky, there will be a parade performance.

Finally, the reporter would like to remind you: Don’t forget to stamp your Expo passport! At previous World Expos, each participating country and organization will prepare an Expo commemorative medal. Visitors can take their Expo passport to each venue to get a stamp as a souvenir. Of course, you need to spend money to buy a passport.
