Das Zentrum des Expo-Geländes, Al Wasl Plaza. Die Kuppel über dem Platz ist die weltweit größte 360-Grad-Projektionsfläche, wird aktuell aber nicht dafür genutzt.

Der Platz wird auch bei der Nachnutzung des Geländes als Stadtviertelmitte bestehen bleiben.

Ich habe in einem Hotel auf dem Gelände der Weltausstellung 2020 übernachtet.

Das ist aktuell ziemlich ausgestorben – die Pavillions seit über zwei Jahren geschlossen, nur wenige Attraktionen können noch besichtigt werden. Aber: Sicherheits- und Putzpersonal ist da und arbeitet.

Exactly one year ago, I had just finished my first day exploring Expo 2020 in Dubai. Yup, I'm going to be thinking about travel a lot this week. I gotta get my next holiday sorted.

A selfie I took in front of the Al Wasl Dome at Expo 2020 in Dubai.

The UAE Pavilion, designed by Santiago Calatrava, at Expo 2020 Dubai. The photo is taken through the gap in a building. There are plants in the foreground and the pavilion is in the background next to the Al Wasl Dome, which edges into the right of the shot.

One of the exciting things about visiting a #WorldExpo is strumbling across a vast array of street entertainment and artworks scattered around the Expo site. These are a few of the gems I encountered during my visit to #Expo2020 in #Dubai back in January.

One of the exciting things at a World Expo is the huge diversity of art, crafts, and artifacts that participating nations bring along to share with the world. Here's a selection of items that were on display in national pavilions...

1. #Bosnia-Herzegovina (a beautiful, intricate metalwork piece)
2. #Paraguay (sand and seed painting by Koki Ruiz)
3. #France (an Enlightenment-era encyclopaedia)
4. #Peru (from a temporary exhibition of the ornaments of the Lord of Sipan)
5. #Baden-Wurttemberg (Bauhaus dance costumes)

These are pictures I took of the four of the major pavilions built by the host nation at #Expo2020 in #Dubai The Expo site was largely split into three districts, the Sustainability, Mobility, and Opportunity Districts (named after the three sub-themes of the Expo). Each district was anchored by a thematic pavilion, exploring that theme. The other main pavilion built by the organisers was the #UAE national pavilion.

1. Terra, the Sutainability Pavilion, designed by Grimshaw Architects.
2. A forest of "solar trees" surrounding Terra, which rotate through the day and help to power the Sustainability Pavilion.
3. The Hall of Consumption was an exhibit inside Terra which prompted visitors to consider their consumer choices and the impact they have on our planet.
4. Alif, the Mobilty Pavilion, designed by Foster & Partners, explored the history of mobility, transport, and exploration. The building contained the world's largest passenger lift.
5. The Giants of Mobility, an exhibit within Alif three enormous hyper-realistic figures depicting legendary explorers Al Bakri, Ibn Battuta, and Ahmad bin Majid
6. Mission Possible, the Opportunity Pavilion, told the story of projects around the world that improve people lives and works towards meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals
7. and 8. The UAE Pavilion was designed by Santiago Calatrava and was inspired by a falcon (the national bird of the UAE) in flight.

This was some of the striking architecture on display from the national pavilions at Expo 2020 in Dubai, which closed at the start of this month. I think there's something beautiful about the world coming together to share their creativity and work together to make something exciting.

All of these buildings will be dismantled to make way for the new city district but they may yet find a new life elsewhere in the world. For example, the UK's pavilion from Expo 2015 in Milan was rehoused and is now a permanent installation at Kew Gardens.

Which national pavilions would you like to see live on beyond the Expo?

1. United Kingdom
2. Morocco
3. Spain
4. New Zealand
5. Saudi Arabia
6. Italy
7. Germany
8. South Korea
9. Philippines
10. Pakistan

As promised, here is the first set of pictures from my trip to the World Expo in Dubai back in January. This was my third World Expo but it was, by far, the most breathtaking in its scale.

These photos all show the icon of the Expo, Al Wasl Plaza. The intricate dome over the plaza is also the world's largest 360-degree projection screen. Normally, I'm not bothered about these crazy world-record structures (which are normally more about ego than art) but I was won over by the beautiful, immersive shows projected onto the dome each night.

Even thought the Expo is now closed, Al Wasl Plaza is due to remain standing as a centrepiece of the city district, "District 2020", being developed on the Expo site.
