urban-planning investment as well as an exclusive project ever made
in the history - to build Geopolis (City of the World) just under
the feet of Mount Ararat which could be unruled even by time.
The Armenian pavilion is consisted of several components - the first
one is the central where the model of Geopolis is presented. Its basic
map is ever green tree where national communities (Armenia, Russian,
French, Chinese, American, Indian, etc.) are supposed to be created,
as well as social territories (Music square, Time square, etc.) The
national communities, according to the scheme, are planned by 5-7
module complexes matching with the national architectural style of

in the global integration, its culture, history, urban-planning,
religious traditions, economic and intellectual potential, it is to
create business links, it will present competitive Armenian products.
