This year, the eyes of the world will focus on China's fastest growing economic area hosting the 2010 World Expo.
Since the first World Expo in London's Hyde Park in 1851, the Expo has grown to become the third-largest recurring event in terms of economic and cultural impact after the FIFA World Cup and the Olympic Games. This year, 186 countries and 47 organizations will showcase projects in line with the Expo's theme - Better City - Better Life.
The Shanghai World Expo is expected to generate the largest number of visitors in the history of world's fairs on its 5.28km² (roughly 1,300 acres) in the Nanpu Bridge - Lupu Bridge area in central Shanghai.
