Bulgaria Pavilion at EXPO 2008 Visited by Over 5000 People in One Day

Sofia News Agency, 15.06.2008

Over 5000 visitors came to see the Bulgarian Pavilion during the first day of the World Exhibit in Saragosa, according to the Director of the Plovdiv Fair's press-center Katya Yaneva. EXPO 2008 began on June 14 and will continue until September 14. The expo's theme is "Water and Stable Development". 101 countries participate in the Saragosa exhibit. "The best display so far", "I am glad to have become acquainted with a new country such as Bulgaria", "Thanks from a distinguished collector", "Very beautiful and interesting", "I really loved the water curtains". These are some of the opinions the visitors have written in the "impressions" book. Quite a few of the visitors have requested tourist information about Bulgaria, mainly about our sea resorts as well as contacts with tourist agencies. Others have been impressed by the Pavilion's façade with the letters from the Cyrillic alphabet. The water curtains, the large (32 by 7 meters) three-dimensional picture of the Rila Lake, the Panagurishte Treasure are among the biggest attractions and have been visited by most of the guests. The design includes modern audio-visual effects comparable to those of other, bigger, EXPO 2008 participants. Ivan Sokolov, Executive Director of the International Plovdiv Fair has prepared and organized Bulgaria's participation in the World Exhibit. Sokolov was very pleased with Bulgaria's presentation displaying the country's unique sites, waters and tourism opportunities.
