Portugal Pavilion

Exterior curtain walls and interior attaching veneers of the pavilion are all decorate with walls of cork, a Portuguese-sourced, recyclable and environmentally friendly material. The exhibition area is divided into four sections of “moments,” while supporting facility areas include a dining area and wine tasting area. Entrance halls, digital screens and theme exhibition areas showcase history, culture, economy and daily lives of Portugal. The relationship between Portugal and China during its history of about five centuries and its influence on modern Portugal are also presented in the pavilion.

Highlight 1: A date between Portugal and China – “Moment One” showcases lasting dates between Portugal and China in the past five centuries.

Highlight 2: Portugal, a Square for the World – “Moment Two” plays a short video of “Portugal, a Square for the World.”

Highlight 3: Sustainable Development Philosophy – “Moment Three” focuses on the theme of “Portugal, a whole world of energy” to showcase sustainable development philosophy in modern cities and the philosophy’s role in Portuguese economic and environmental policies.
