Guangxi chooses its Expo design

The Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has decided on its exhibition theme and design for Expo 2010.

Guangxi's exhibition for Expo 2010 uses images of banyans.

The 600-square-meter exhibition will have the theme "Green Homeland, Blue Dream" and will feature copper drums, embroidered balls, Zhuang style silk, the Li river, the terraces in Longji and a mangrove forest.

Guangxi's exhibition space takes images of banyans, the trees that protect water and earth in Guangxi as the "green walls" for people. A blue light system creates multi-dimensional space as if it were deep in the sea, to coincide with the "Blue Dream" theme.

Interactive videos will be screened at the exhibition and visitors can also enjoy dancing with special robots.

The design plan was selected from 21 finalists.
