Drawing on cutting-edge eco-technology, the Czech Republic Pavilion at Expo 2020 conjures a blooming garden in the Dubai desert literally from thin air. Powered by solar energy and Czech ingenuity, the pavilion’s sustainable vapour harvesting system pulls water from the air to create a beautiful oasis.

You’ll see the artful evidence of this system throughout the pavilion in the form of sweeping, swirling pipes, which not only channel the water but combine into fanciful “clouds” that offer shade. As you follow their flow, you’ll be treated to displays of Czech glassmaking, exhibits exploring desert cultivation and authentic regional cuisine.

A model of form meeting function, the pavilion uses a swirl of hundreds of pipes to create the impression of a cloud rising from a lush desert oasis. These “bioplastic” pipes, which climb in great curls from a garden of palms and shrubbery, are part of an innovative system that uses solar energy to capture water from desert air.

This Caribbean nation, nicknamed “Nature Island”, is an eco-adventure, where you can snorkel in waters fizzing with volcanic bubbles or soak in hot springs after a day of hiking along its 240 kilometre National Trail. Fall for its rustic charms at the Dominica Pavilion, where you can enjoy island music, taste native foods, and get to know its indigenous people. 
The island boasts the highest number of centenarians per capita in the world, a fact they credit to their diet and relaxed lifestyle. One thing this laid back nation is serious about? Becoming the first climate resilient island in the world to better face the challenges of the future.

Founded in 1981, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is an economic and political union that works to unlock the potential of the Arabian Gulf region through cooperation and innovation. The Gulf Cooperation Council Pavilion at Expo 2020 offers a spin on this theme of unity, braiding the GCC’s thousands of stories into a golden centrepiece.

Inside, follow six groups of threads (symbolising Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, the GCC’s six member states) on a tour of the region’s topography, history and intertwined cultures. In the pavilion’s grand central cube, these threads weave and twist into a magnificent golden knot.


Symphonically weaving lines and shapes, the GCC Pavilion is an abstract collection of modernist white structures with a giant cube standing at its centre. On the building’s right, several dune-like façades evoke a feeling of desert and sand. To the left, a low rectangular building welcomes visitors through large doors.
