Chongming District last week marked the 800-day countdown to the 10th China Flower Expo, to be held from May 21 till July 2 in 2021, under the theme of “Blossom with a Chinese Dream.”
“The goals of the expo include four key words: ecology, innovation, humanity and sharing,” said district chief Li Zheng at the countdown meeting. “Our aim is to build an international flower creative platform and a leading low-carbon and environmental-friendly eco-island.”
The expo is divided into five parts, three of which are expo gardens, Dongping National Forest Park, southern service area and northern service area.
The core area is a paradise of butterflies and Chinese peony. One highlight is the main flower avenue. Six pavilions are housed in the structure of five subsidiary ones surrounding a main one.
