Covering an area of 12,770 sq m, the International Pavilion has four exhibition areas, displaying various horticultural cultures including eco-themed wall displays, mobile gardens, flora competitions and exhibitions of countries around the world.

Muhammad Imran, a journalist from Dawn News TV, said he could feel China's fast economic development and environmental protection from the expo visit.

"It is an enjoyable experience to see so many flowers from around the world in the International Pavilion," Muhammad said.

"I'm quite excited to find my country Pakistan also exhibiting our culture and products in the pavilion."

Ye Dahua, deputy head of the Beijing International Horticultural Exhibition Coordination Bureau, said the expo is one of the biggest events in the world.

To date, the expo has received 800,000 visits, according to Ye.

In addition to the horticulture exhibitions, the expo is hosting activities, such as a lighting show and robot performance. Advanced technologies including 5G, unmanned aerial vehicles and self-driving cars are also being showcased.

"The expo has attracted 110 countries to display their gardening culture, and it has gathered cultures around the world to provide visitors with a visual feast," Ye said.
