| Russia Pavilion in Expo 2010 Shanghai ChinaRussia will decorate its pavilion for the 2010 World Expo like a fairy-tale world, showing a comfortable city as seen through children's eyes.
By: Busiunion The country yesterday unveiled its pavilion design which will be on a 6,000-square- The 20-meter towers, in white, red and gold, will duplicate the ancient Ural towns dating back 3,000 years ago, but given a modern touch with their irregular shapes. They demonstrate the diversity of both ancient and modern cities, said Vladimir Strashko, Russia's commission general for the Expo. A 15-meter-tall central building will link the towers. Inside the three-story building, there will be a display of scenes from the fairy tale "The Adventures of DUNNO and His Friends," written by children's author Nikolay Nosov. The novel tells the story of Neznaika, a 15-year-old boy and his friends. They have journeys to some fantastic cities where cars are fueled by strawberry jam and huge cakes are used as houses. Their adventures include three fictional cities: the City of Flowers, the City of Sun and the City of Moon, which will be the three main exhibition areas. The walls of the pavilion will be painted in vivid colors and visitors can enter mushroom-shape houses just like in a fairy tale. "People are always seeking the ideal city to live, and we think the most comfortable city in children's eyes is the most livable city," said Boris Krasnov, chief designer of the pavilion. "We welcome children from across the world to visit our pavilion," he said. The most advanced technologies that will lead to a better city will be exhibited in the fairy-tale setting and the achievements of Russian youth and young scientists will be highlighted.
