Expo 2010 Shanghai China

Theme: Save City
National Pavilion Day: October 18
Location: Within Zone C of the Expo Site
Estonia’s pavilion invites you to make your voice be heard on urbanization-related topics: Visitors are given the chance to propose solutions for various problems facing the world’s cities, We will introduce ways that everyone can use to make their environment better – ways that are already standard operating procedures in Estonia.
In the pavilion there are large, friendly-looking piggy banks to collect good ideas from visitors on making the world’s cities better places to live. Ideas can be forwarded by sending a sms or filling in a voting flyer. At the end of the EXP0 2010 the statistics will be collected and handed over to a local school in Shanghai to analyse the ideas.
Choral singing is one of the most recognizable hallmarks of Estonia’s national culture. Singing along choir karaoke is a daily event held in the Estonian pavilion, and the purpose is to offer a unique cultural experience through choral song. Visitors will have a chance to sing along with Estonian choirs so that the choirs sing up on the big screen in the pavilion and the visitors sing along in the pavilion. The songs are in Estonian, Chinese and English. The singing will be recorded and can later be downloaded. The recordings of the singing will be uploaded to www.savecity.org as mp3s each week and the singers can download them the following week.
