A long history

LONDON – The first big “international exhibition” dates back to more than 150 years ago. It took place in London, the industrial centre of the world, in 1851.

PARIS – The Universal Exposition in Paris in 1889 was organized to celebrate the centenary of the French Revolution and it left us with the symbol of the city par excellence- the Eiffel Tower.

ROME – In Rome the area called EUR was designed and built for the expo that was planned for 1942 but which didn’t take place due to the Second World War.

What do I think?

images“My favourite pavilion was the Australian one, a real forest reproduced in the pavilion. The great Britain pavilion won the prize as the best pavilion. The big hive, which was lit thanks to the vibrations of some bees that were in a nice in Great Britain. I like the exhibition a lot, but I don’t think that they fully respected the main theme.
My sister has worked in 2 pavilions: the Belgian and the Brazilian pavilion. She thinks that it was a great experience. She met a lot of people from all over the world and she had the chance to practice all the languages she had studied”.
