The 2,000-square-meter Philippines Pavilion, themed ‘Displaying Cities’, devotes its exhibition to sustainable humanistic urban development, in which art and culture play a central role. The pavilion contains a coffee house, a water therapy and amusement center, and a product display area, as well as space for forums and seminars.

Peru’s 1,000-square-meter rented pavilion has been futuristically designed as a showcase for Andean cities, from pre-columbian times to the present. The presentation of Inca civilization includes scenes of Machu Picchu, an ancient fortress with elaborate terraces. A 200-square-meter restaurant, seating about 120 people, introduces Peruvian cuisine, one of the world’s most diverse, combining the flavors of four continents. Peruvian National Day at Expo falls on July 28.
These two pavilions are located next to each other in the Shanghai expo, it would be foolish of us to compare them to the large pavilions displayed by the USA and China but, it is clear they both hold something Peru takes inspiration from Guangzhou Nightlife displaying bright lights and underated fun, however Peru appear to be on another level.
