A microstate of cobblestone streets and medieval towers surrounded by Northern Italy, San Marino boasts the title of the world's oldest surviving sovereign state and the oldest republic. Yet you’ll find a remarkably forward-facing attitude at the nation’s pavilion, which boasts a futuristic laboratory theme designed by students of the University of San Marino. It encapsulates a fresh vision for the nation, full of hope and opportunity. The pavilion guides you through the country’s past, present and future, from a reproduction of the world-famous Domagnano Treasure to highlights of the San Marino economy and new commercial opportunities.
