The China Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka bursts to life with "Jiangsu Week," a dazzling celebration of Yangzhou's charm and global collaboration. Against the Expo's sleek modern backdrop, Jiangsu's timeless heritage takes the spotlight in a whirlwind of culture and cutting-edge innovation.
The opening dazzled audiences as Ma Weiheng, guardian of Yangzhou's ancient guqin tradition, transported visitors through time with his spellbinding performance. Each delicate note transformed the pavilion into a living bridge between past and present, captivating an international crowd.
At the entrance, Jiangsu's wildlife steals the show - plush toys of Yangtze finless porpoises, red-crowned cranes, and muli deer fly off shelves as visitors clamor for these adorable ambassadors of the province's natural wonders.
Marking 45 years of Osaka-Jiangsu friendship, a new direct flight from Yangzhou(Taizhou) to Osaka takes this bond to new heights. As cultural and commercial connections soar, this dynamic duo is writing an exciting new chapter in international cooperation.
