The design inspiration of the pavilion comes from the Lahore Fort listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. At Expo 2010, Pakistan will create a replica of the Lahore Fort built of new materials with new technology. The fort which dates back to the year 1025AD is the cultural capital and heart of modern-day Pakistan. It was given its current design in 1566AD. The building is listed as a UNESCO world heritage site. Visitors will have a glimpse of the former royal garden at Expo 2010.
