On April 13, the 2025 Osaka World Expo (Expo Osaka 2025), referred to as the “Osaka World Expo”, officially opened in Osaka, Japan. This World Expo will last from April 13 to October 13, with an exhibition period of six months.
This World Expo, with the theme of “Building a Future Society, Imagining Tomorrow’s Life”, has brought together more than 150 countries and regions, 8 international organizations, and more than 60 global companies and institutions to participate, and launched a series of in-depth dialogues and exhibitions around the future of mankind with the concept of “co-creation”.
The ring structure is like a bond, building the main path for tourists to explore the park. The barrier-free green roof is covered with lush green plants and gorgeous flowers, and about 500 “lighting grasses” with LED light sources are set up in the green belt, like a garden wonderland suspended in the air. It is reported that there are about 5,000 lighting devices in this building, lighting up the passages and ceilings in different ways. After the opening of the Expo, these devices will continue to light up from sunset to closing at 10 pm, showing different brightness and tones in three time periods: dusk, nightfall and night, reflecting the changes of seasons.
The ring structure is between 12 meters and 22 meters high and about 600 meters in diameter. It will surround the core area of the 2025 Osaka World Expo, including the National Pavilion and the Square, and guide the flow of people in a decentralized layout. It can both shelter from wind and rain and bring a fascinating experience.
