Nigeria Pavilion

Outer walls of the pavilion resemble Zuma Rock, one of the seven wonders of Africa and so-called gate to the Nigerian capital of Abuja. The pavilion adopts the color of its national flag and waiting halls take the shape of palm trees to reshape the natural scenery of Nigeria. Inside the pavilion are three sections named “Scenery of the West African Coast,” “A Peaceful Country on the Rise” and “Business Section.” Exhibitions focus on displaying how cities with different cultures, races and cultural heritage share common prosperity and harmony.
