Abstract

The article presents information on the 2005 World Exposition, an exhibition on architecture that is being held in Aichi, Japan. The fair, which is one of the twice-a-decade world exhibitions sanctioned by the Paris-based Bureau of International Expositions, runs through September 25 on a park like site east of Nagoya, the industrial city between Tokyo and Osaka. The Expo has attracted more than seven million visitors in its first twelve weeks. Inside the fairgrounds, it's impossible to avoid being educated about alternative energy sources, green-building methods, and extreme recycling.
