recommendations on which pavillions to visit at the shanghai world expo? my advice: SKIP the U.S.A pavillion! @Jura - Sorry if this offends you, but I never offered this as an "expert" opinion. Actually, the point of asking this question was to get non-expert opinions from the italki community. However, I probably should have offered an explanation, but the character limit didn't allow me to do that when I first posed the question. So here it is... For those coming specifically to see the US Pavillion, whether from the US, Australia, China or wherever, then by all means go and enjoy it. But, for those who don't have any predetermined pavillions in mind to visit, and who thus have to choose wisely which ones to visit because lines are sooo ridiculously long that you may only be able to visit a few good ones in a day, I'm offering my opinion that the US Pavillion should be skipped! Waiting in line for 2-3 hours to see a few videos and then be ushered into a room that can best be described as a marketing opportunity for corporate sponsors is not my idea of time well spent. A good idea would be to wait until the end of the day when the lines have died down and you can possibly get into the more popular pavillions in 30 minutes or less. The Saudi Arabia Pavillion falls into this category also, I think. It was pretty cool and worth seeing, but not worth waiting for 2-3 hours. @durk - is the Denmark Pavillion the one where you ride bicycles around? @Stefanie - I didn't get to visit Germany, but the French Pavillion was one of my favorites!
