Construction of the Hong Kong Pavilion at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo was completed on Oct 12 with Tang Ying-yen, chief secretary for the administration of Hong Kong, and Shanghai Executive Vice Mayor Yang Xiong planting two osmanthus trees in front of the building.
The special administrative region will explore the theme "Hong Kong - the Infinite City," with a focus on its transport network, advanced scientific facilities, financial and trade systems, multinational culture and sustainable high-quality urban life.
The three-story metallic structure will sit next to the China Pavilion and will have an exhibition area of about 800 square meters.
The pavilion will symbolize the imagination and creativity of Hong Kong people, said pavilion director Ng Hon Wing.
The third floor of the pavilion will have an indoor wetland park based on the Hong Kong Wetland Park.
