The Expo Site is at the waterfront area on both sides of the Huangpu River.

The theme of Expo 2010 is "Better City, Better Life," representing the common wish of the whole humankind for a better living in future urban environments.

The emblem, depicting the image of three people - you, me, him/her holding hands together - symbolizes the big family of mankind.

Created from a Chinese character meaning people, the mascot "Haibao" embodies the character of Chinese culture.
