Today our journey of ‎theOngoingHistory?:‎fromShanghaiToMilano? is with Japan Pavilion ! In ‎Expo2010?, the Japan Pavilion, officially nicknamed the ‘Purple Silkworm Island', was composed of a tubular metal support system covered in a purple membrane with integrated solar cells. An innovative Eco-Tube system was designed specifically for the structure to provide natural ventilation and bring in daylight. Japan also showcased its love for robots with a humanoid bot performing on the main stage.

This time Japan participates in ?‎Expo2015? under the theme of "Harmonious Diversity". The exhibition reflects Japan’s various efforts in the field of agriculture, forestry and fisheries as well as food, and its various knowledge and skills that are found throughout “Japanese food” and “Japanese food culture” will contribute to the solution to issues common to all humankind and cultivate approaches toward a diverse and sustainable society of coexistence in the future.
