The rain doesn't stop visitors from looking around the exhibition center. Everyone is talking about the pavilions of the participating countries and regions and the latest plans and news for the Expo.
A visitor said, "It's the fourth time I've been here. All Shanghai citizens are expecting the World Expo to be successful."
"Many of my schoolmates have visited here and we all come here for the same reason: to get a deeper understanding about the expo," said a visitor.
Since the opening, the exhibition center has been running everyday so that people can visit during the holidays.
The center will continue to display the latest progress of the construction and preparation all the way up to the opening.
