Make all preparations before the visit. When you are free, you need to look at the familiar park guide map (you can choose to download it from the Internet, ask volunteers when queuing up, or ask at the information desk after entering the park), such as the location of each entrance, the specific location of each venue, the basic situation of the venues you want to visit, and the traffic routes in the park. And you need to have a general understanding so that you can choose the venues you want to see and choose the tour route. To arrange the route, we must be firm in belief and flexible. The firm belief is that you will queue up to see the venues you are very interested in, and don't be afraid when you see the queue is too long; Flexibility means that the queue is really too long. If you don't have to look at the venue, you can choose another time or you can choose not to look at it. In addition, we should do our homework about some situations in the park. There is an episode here. On the first day, because we couldn't get the reservation ticket for the China Pavilion, we hurried to queue up to buy Expo passports. A girl in front of us has got the reservation ticket for the China Pavilion, but she is still telling her companion next to her that she will go to the urban best practice area to get the city business card book and collect 15 case museum seals to see the China Pavilion. After I got to know the situation with her, I realized that she thought that she could not visit the China Pavilion with the reservation ticket of the China Pavilion, and only the seal of the city business card book was valid. God, it almost killed the popularity of those of us who didn't book tickets!
3. Learn to observe and think before queuing and make rational judgments. In the same long queue, there is a lot of time difference between moving and not moving. For example, in some venues, because there are movies to watch or interactive programs, it takes at least 5 to 8 minutes to let people go in batches, so the team will move very slowly; For example, some venues do not require admission in batches, but only control the flow of people. It usually takes a minute or two to release a group of people, so the team will travel faster, so the queue time will of course be shorter than the former. For example, in the early morning of the third day, we went to the Saudi Pavilion. Because we entered the park late at that time, when we arrived at the Saudi Pavilion at 9: 45, the queue had already extended to the sidewalk under the elevated walkway outside the pavilion, and there was no queue. At that time, the staff reminded everyone that they had to wait in line for eight hours to see the Saudi pavilion (almost fainted). At first we were all a little shaken, but we calmed down a little and watched the progress of the team. It was the organizers who released the crowd in stages, and there were many empty sections in the middle of the queue, so the actual length of the queue was not out of reach, so we lined up without hesitation. As a result, the subsequent situation confirmed our judgment. After three hours of hard queuing, we finally entered the Saudi Pavilion. I'm really glad you came! Therefore, don't completely believe the organizers' so-called 8-hour, 6-hour and 3-hour queuing time warnings, but treat them as white lies. The actual purpose may be to prevent some venues from being overcrowded and bursting with popularity, which is just a way to divert tourists. Believe in yourself, be good at observing, and make a choice whether to queue up or not. Here is a list of the general queuing time of popular venues when the number of people entering the park reaches 300,000, for your reference (except after 19: 00 in the evening): the venues that exceed 3 hours include Saudi Pavilion, German Pavilion, Japan Pavilion and Petroleum Pavilion; More than 2 hours of venues include French Pavilion, Swiss Pavilion, Korean Pavilion, China Aviation Pavilion and Coca-Cola Pavilion. The venues that exceed 1 hour include the USA Pavilion, Russian Pavilion, British Pavilion, Italian Pavilion, Spanish Pavilion, UAE Pavilion, Israel Pavilion, Macau Pavilion, Taiwan Province Provincial Pavilion, Japanese Industry Pavilion, SAIC-GM Pavilion, etc.
4. Make full use of the traffic in the park. Buses and ferries in the park are free. Among them, Pudong can take the Expo bus to cross the river or cross the river ferry to and from Puxi, and Pudong and Puxi have their own east-west bus lines to choose from. The interval between buses is very short, and there is a bus every two or three minutes. Short people can choose to walk, and long people can save a lot of time by bus. After all, time is money and efficiency is life!
5. Make full use of the evening time to visit. Because many group tourists or day tourists leave the park around 18:00 in the afternoon, the number of people at night is almost two-thirds less than that during the day. Popular venues that have to queue for two or three hours during the day can only be visited after 19:00 at night, and even some popular venues can be visited after 20:00 at night without queuing. On the third day, I visited Europe, made full use of the short two hours from 20: 30 to 22: 30, and saw three popular venues in France, Italy and Britain in one breath. Amazing efficiency!
6. Make full use of the first time to enter the park and queue up to visit the super popular venues before the closing time of the park at night. The Oil Pavilion in Puxi and the Saudi Pavilion in Pudong are the two most popular pavilions, while the China Aviation Pavilion, the German Pavilion, the French Pavilion and the Japanese Pavilion in Pudong are the most popular pavilions. Therefore, if you are a tourist on a three-day tour, I suggest you queue up to visit the above-mentioned popular venues at the first time after entering the park and three days before closing the park. My suggestion is to go to the petroleum museum after the first day of entering the park and go to the aviation museum before closing the park. The next day, after entering the park, go to the Saudi pavilion first, and then go to the Japanese pavilion after closing the pavilion; On the third day, I went to the German Pavilion after entering the park, and lined up to visit the French Pavilion before closing. As for the China Pavilion, since the reservation ticket was received after entering the park on the first day (of course, you have to arrive early), you can queue up across the river to visit Pudong on the first afternoon, so it is not considered here.
7. Buy your Expo passport in time to leave a good impression on your Expo trip. Expo passports have been very popular in previous world expositions, and Shanghai World Expo is no exception. Many tourists are proud of getting more stamps. Some tourists even consider whether to stamp it at the first time, not for visiting (Young Xia doesn't support putting the cart before the horse). However, because Expo passports are not sold in every store, but only in specialized retail stores, and the time and quantity of sales are different, they are often sold out in a short time, or even if they are sold, there are long queues. Therefore, it is suggested to know the location of the nearest specialty retail store before entering the park on the first day, and use the first time after entering the park to buy the Expo passport (usually available in the morning) to lay a good foundation for future Expo visits.
8. The enterprise pavilion and urban best practice area in Puxi area are definitely a good place for you not to miss. First of all, the number of people in Puxi is much less than that in Pudong, accounting for only a quarter of the total number of people in the park. Many venues can enter without queuing, and the content is also wonderful. Secondly, compared with the national pavilion in Pudong, the enterprise pavilion and the urban best practice area in Puxi also have their own characteristics, among which the enterprise pavilion displays the latest scientific and cultural connotation of enterprises, which is often closely related to our lives; Many cases in the urban best practice area are worth watching and thinking about, and there are also many interactive links, which are worth seeing. Thirdly, by visiting the case pavilion in Puxi area, there is also a chance to go directly to the relevant national pavilions in Pudong, and there are also real discounts. Anyway, I tell you from my experience that you will not be disappointed when you go to Puxi.
9. The Expo Cultural Center, various cultural performances in the park, and the three parks beside the Huangpu River in Pudong Park are all leisure projects that should not be missed. In addition to visiting the venues, you can also enter the circular observation deck of the Expo Cultural Center, overlooking the whole Expo site and the scenery on both sides of the Huangpu River, which is no less than visiting the Oriental Pearl, World Financial Center or Jinmao Building. It is definitely a value-added enjoyment. In addition, there are many wonderful cultural performances in the park, which should not be missed. When you enter the garden, don't forget to go to the reception desk to get the performance of the day. There will be fixed-point cultural performances in the squares and designated areas in each area. These wonderful performances can bring you many surprises when you visit or have a rest. In addition, Pudong Park has several acres of Zhongshan Water Park, Expo Park and Houtan Park along the Huangpu River. Among them, Mu Zhongshan Water Park is behind the Korea Pavilion, with Suzhou garden-style buildings and bamboo forests for sightseeing and leisure. When you are tired of walking and queuing, you can feel peace in the noise.
10. If you have any questions, please consult Expo volunteers (nicknamed "Chinese cabbage" for wearing green clothes and white pants). After a period of operation, volunteers gradually mastered a lot of knowledge about the park. When you encounter a problem that can't be solved for a while, the best way is to ask volunteers, who will be happy to answer it for you. Besides, if you can ask him some questions, he can really help you, and he will be very happy. Here is a little tidbit. That day, I looked for a nearby venue on the map set up in the park, and it took me some time to finally find it. I was about to leave when I looked up and saw a volunteer standing not far from me, as if staring at me a little angrily. Her expression seems to tell me: I am all around, don't consult me. It's inappropriate for me to take one thing seriously! Haha, since then, I like to ask volunteers some questions that can't be solved for a while, and also communicate with them from time to time, which makes me deeply feel the hard work and greatness of volunteers! So I suggest: if you have difficulty reading blogs, please find "Chinese cabbage"! Here, I pay tribute to the "Chinese cabbages" who have contributed to the Expo!
Comments on major venues:
Pussid region:
1, Petroleum Pavilion (92 points): The most popular venue in Puxi area, absolutely not to be missed. Watch an 8-minute 4-D movie "Journey of Oil Time and Space", which will take you through hundreds of millions of years and experience the "journey of time and space" with the theme of oil. The film is very shocking, full of color and flavor, and it is worth seeing. Especially girls should pay attention, haha, sell their own experience! In addition, there are wax figures of Marilyn Monroe, Chino Reeves and Bruce Lee at the entrance for taking pictures. After watching the movie, they entered the back exhibition area, where there were related exhibitions of oil fields and petroleum products, and a giant tire 4 or 5 meters high.
2. China Aviation Museum (90 points): It is worthwhile to experience a space roaming in a simulated spaceship. In particular, flying in space at a straight distance is like being in space and having the feeling of being there. However, the only fly in the ointment is to close the door when you feel good, perhaps because of limited space, or because you are afraid that Disney's amusement projects will have problems.
3. SAIC-GM Exhibition Hall (88 points): The biggest highlight is several concept cars designed for 2030 that can be unmanned. Sitting in a dynamic chair and watching the movie "2030 lines" tells a moving story about "lines" that happened in Shanghai in 2030, so that the audience can see the harmonious picture of the future city in 2030 and the changes that cars will bring to urban life in the future. Just after watching the movie, I had to wait outside and was forced to watch the trailer of 10 for more than 0 minutes.
4. China Private Enterprise Joint Pavilion (85 points): The climax show of "vitality matrix" is displayed, and wonderful and fantastic stages are created through round spheres. Combined with Tai Chi performance, the visual experience is very shocking.
5. Shanghai Enterprise Joint Pavilion (80 points): Professor Butterfly will unveil the secrets of the Rubik's Cube through an 8-minute 360-degree movie with Xu as the prototype, take you to experience an extraordinary Expo experience through interaction, and then watch robot cooking (but the actual feeling is no different from microwave cooking). You can stamp it outside if you don't enter the museum.
6. Yuanda Pavilion (78 points): Enter the earthquake house to experience the feeling of the earthquake. The exhibition area enters the house built by Yuanda for 24 hours (propaganda can resist the earthquake of magnitude 9), and the scene of Wenchuan earthquake reappears, and the characters are very vivid and unforgettable. Stamp at the exit of the venue, or stamp at the back door if you don't enter the venue.
7. Coca-Cola Pavilion (78 points): Two cartoon films were shown during the visit, and at last, each person was given 1 bottle of coke (5 points for giving gifts). The staff also teaches you how to shake the bottle for freezing, but it depends on whether your gesture is correct or not. It's a little magical. It's a good place for Coca-Cola fans.
8. State Grid Museum (75 points): There will be a 4-minute movie in the "Magic Box".
9. City Footprint Museum (73 points): There is no need to queue up to display the ancient buildings and monuments in Dunhuang and Greece. Those who are interested in archaeology might as well go.
10, Urban Future Pavilion (72 points): There is no need to queue up to show the future world, but it is not worthy of the name. Personally, I don't think it's as good as footprint pavilion.
1 1, China People's Insurance Pavilion (70 points): Stand on the swaying booth and watch a movie, experience earthquakes, volcanoes, glaciers and other scenes, and finally watch a boring propaganda film.
12, Space Home Pavilion (65 points): There is nothing to see when entering the exhibition area through the fast track, because I didn't watch the 3D movie, so I can't comment.
13, Liverpool case museum (88 points): You can take photos with the family photos of Liverpool and Everton in the Premier League. The films shown will be introduced by funny hosts and there will be some interactive sessions. In the prize-winning session, the host asked two questions. The first question is about the four active players in the Liverpool family photo. The answers are Reina, Carragher, Gerrard and Torres. Second question, who is the current captain of Everton? I answered Saha at first, but the result was wrong. Then I took a quick look at Everton's family photo and saw Filineville, so I got the right answer. The prize is a small Liverpool branch, which is very good! Then you can go to the cinema next door to watch 3D movies, and finally there will be a football match. Great case museum, worth recommending!
14, Case Museum of Montreal (82 points): The film mainly introduces that a local quarry has evolved into a landfill and then transformed into a large park for tourists' leisure, which is of great reference significance, and the picture of the film is a bumpy dynamic multimedia projection, which is very stereoscopic and very good.
15, Bologna Case Museum (78 points): Tour Bologna by bike facing the screen. Five cars correspond to five scenes, and sightseeing while exercising is very innovative.
16, Portuguese case museum (72 points): It is a good choice to show portable tourist towers with colorful bamboo strips and take photos.
17, Seoul case museum (70 points): You can take photos of yourself with your computer for free and send Korean mineral water (whatever you want).
18, Barcelona, Madrid, Bilbao case museum (all 68 points): The main purpose is to collect stamps and go straight to the Spanish pavilion. There are some introductions and souvenirs of Spanish Barcelona and Real Madrid. Among them, the Madrid case museum can take photos and synthesize computer photos with Real Madrid players, but the photos are free and there is a charge for taking photos. Ask 80 yuan (remember, not 8 yuan) to send a small souvenir, and I was almost cheated. As a result, I wasted my time taking pictures with Kaka. I can't do it without running for 80 yuan.
19, Hangzhou case museum has Hangzhou travel coupons, and you can also watch big dramas; Suzhou case museum has postcards as gifts; Paris, Bremen, Freiburg, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other case museums are nothing to see, just for stamping and will not be graded.
In addition, China Railway Pavilion, China Ship Pavilion, Information and Communication Pavilion, Vanke Pavilion, Cisco Pavilion, Aurora Pavilion, Japan Industry Pavilion, Korea Enterprise Joint Pavilion, World Expo Pavilion and other case pavilions have not been seen, so it is impossible to comment.
Pudong ABC area:
1, China Pavilion (98 points): There are emotional factors in it, but the architectural appearance of China Pavilion is magnificent, and it feels like a majestic mountain and river standing under the pavilion; Watch the 8-minute film directed by Mr. Lu Chuan, which reflects the changes in China and is well shot; The moving riverside scenery in Tomb-Sweeping Day is very attractive. "Under One Roof" shows nine different lives, which is of great educational significance. Take a cable car to watch the changes of the scenery of the four seasons, and be leisurely; Children's paintings from all over China were also exhibited, showing their rich imagination. Self-service stamps at the exit include round and square China stamps. You can also relax, take photos and enjoy the cool at the exit.
2. Saudi Pavilion (92 points): It is said that the queue is 8 hours, but the actual queue is 3 hours. This movie is shown in the world's largest 3DIMAX cinema, and it is definitely worth seeing. Standing on the automatic conveyor belt watching Saudi scenery, without wearing 3D glasses is like being in it. It's beautiful, absolutely shocking! Unfortunately, the 3D film is the only highlight of the museum, and the introduction of other Saudi countries is not highlighted, so points are deducted.
3. Italy Pavilion (88 points): Shoe-making technology, top-class sports cars, famous paintings, fashion, robots playing with building blocks, band equipment hanging on the side all appear in the pavilion to promote the next Milan World Expo and reflect the artistic characteristics of Italians.
4. Korea Pavilion (85 points): Touch-screen interaction, scrolling blessing video makes you dazzled, and by the way, introduce Yeosu Expo 20 12. It's a pity that I didn't go to the video studio to watch 3D movies. I don't know if I missed the wonderful content.
5. British Pavilion (85 points): A very beautiful seed temple with 60,000 seeds embedded in it. When I didn't go to the queue, I thought it was closed because it looked dark outside. But when you enter the museum, you can see its light, and it is even more amazing to sweep it with a camera. Here, you get 5 points There are seeds in the temple. After coming out, there is a leisure square where tourists can rest, lie down and count the stars.
6. UAE Pavilion (85 points): The queue is very humanized. Every time you go forward, the staff will politely let you sit on the stone bench next to you and wait. There is also a grand TV screening of the Sailing Hotel, even if the queue exceeds 1 hour, you will not feel tired. There is also a lucky draw to win the grand prize of a one-week trip for two in UAE, and you can get 5 points when you stay in a seven-star sailing hotel. There are three exquisite projections in the museum, which respectively reflect pearls, oil and Sino-Arab friendship. The precious story of father and son runs through them, which is quite touching.
7. Spain Pavilion (82 points): The rattan exterior wall is very attractive. As soon as they entered the pavilion, Spanish dancers twisted their bodies to show their charm, and some images were introduced. The last Xiaomi baby attracted many people to stop and watch the photos, but I always felt that the older baby had a strange expression. His smile always makes me feel like crying, which really makes me laugh and cry!
8. France Pavilion (80 points): The "Garden of Versailles", seven famous French paintings, French dinners and small robots are displayed.
9. Canada Pavilion (78 points): Wide-screen movies bring together a day of Canadian city life from different angles, different cities and different seasons. You can ride a bicycle and follow the front screen to visit all parts of Canada.
10, India Pavilion (78 points): Show the traditional Indian market with projections, pictures, ornaments, food, etc.
1 1, Morocco Pavilion (76 points): the only self-built pavilion in Africa, for which 5 points are added, mainly for displaying various local special items within the framework.
12, Israel Pavilion (75 points): The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, the longer the queue, and the less things to watch. This is an Israeli interactive movie, and it also introduces a magic capsule (miniature camera) to show scientific and technological achievements.
13, Brazil Pavilion (75 points): Similar to the shape of the Bird's Nest, the interactive touch screen introduces the protection and new technology projects in the Amazon forest area, showing the charm of samba and football kingdom.
14, Africa Joint Pavilion (75 points): It's definitely a good place for you to appreciate the customs and seals of all parts of Africa.
15, Sri Lanka Pavilion (73 points): original handicrafts such as necklace making, wood carving, weaving and gem cutting, as well as local food for tourists to choose from (of course, they have to pay), which reflects the style of thrifty blog in Sri Lanka.
16, South Africa Pavilion (72 points): Mandela's personality charm and the upcoming World Cup attracted me. The giant football of the World Cup is displayed at the door, and there is a little lion Zakumi, the mascot of the World Cup, for taking pictures at the door. Touch screen can view the information and countdown of the World Cup. The World Cup seems to be getting closer and closer to us.
17, Pakistan Pavilion (70 points): Promote the theme of China-Pakistan friendship with pictures, water curtains, etc. There are ornaments, jade and precious stones to watch, as well as local food for tourists to choose from (pay).
18, Argentina Pavilion (65 points): I went in through the back door, only Messi's picture is what I like, and there is nothing else to see.
