Storyline: The China Pavilion will showcase a diverse range of exhibits covering China's traditional culture, ecological civilization, and technological achievements at the World Expo 2025 which will kick off on Sunday in Osaka, Japan's third largest city. As one of the largest at the event, the 3,500-square-meter China pavilion reimagines 5,000 years of heritage through 21st-century innovation. The core exhibit of the China Pavilion, titled "Harmony Between Heaven and Man," was created by Chang Shana who combines her in-depth research of Dunhuang murals and patterns with the 24 solar terms. The third floor of the China Pavilion showcases China's relentless efforts in leading development through innovation. The most eye-catching feature of this exhibition area is the lunar sample exhibits. Above the display area, visitors can see the famous Dunhuang flying apsara pattern. A highlight of the China Pavilion is the display of lunar samples to visitors from around the world. The theme of the China Pavilion at the 2025 Osaka Expo is "Building a Community of Life for Man and Nature: A Future Society of Green Development," highlighting a strong commitment to sustainable and eco-friendly growth.
