Union and featured a special performance titled "Armenia: The Art
of Creation".
According to official statistics from Shanghai Expo, more than 20,000
people visit the Armenian Pavilion daily. So far 2 million, out of
more than 53 million people who have visited the Expo, have been to
the Armenian pavilion.
According to the Shanghai Expo 2010 website, the pavilion invited
architects around the world to submit designs for their 'ideal city'.
"Armenia calls itself the motherland of the apricot and the pavilion
features an Apricot Garden. Visitors can taste various delicacies,
while listening to music of a flute made from apricot wood. The
'Gold and Silk' exhibition covers China-Armenia trade history,"
reports the Shanghai Expo website.
The "Expo-Shanghai Online Bureau" granted the Grand Prix to the
Armenian Pavilion for excellent organization and presentation. The
virtual pavilion also won a silver medal for best technological
solutions and best implementation.
