    There are lots of information there, you can find everything you want.
    Thanks - but that site doesn't seem to be working - on either Firefox or IE, on my computer. I see the headings, but I don't see any map.

    Is this place still around? I went there last in 1996.

    That's good idea, I won't hesitate to visit all favorite countries if I've got enough money.

    Hi there!
    A local hkgese girl here, will be going to SH for work in May thus planning to stay behind for a few more days to check out the EXPO.
    If anyone's interested, please pm me for more details!
    M/F / a group of people are welcome, ideally 20-30s.
    Thanks and hope to hear from you in no time!

    P.S. it's gonna be budget travel as i'm a backpacker, make sure you are fine to stay in hostel..etc

    Why not actually go and see the countries that interest you first hand?
    Amazing pavillion. May not queue for two hours to get in, but I will defi go and have a look at this.

    I heard Shanghai expects to profit from the expo this year but not making a loss.

    Given the lower than expected visitor numbers so far, maybe it will be hard for them to make a profit. However, in China if the Government says it has made a profit, no doubt it will.
