كان  المسافرون منذ زمن بعيد يشيرون خلال  ترحالهم إلى دبي باسم "الوصل"، مما يعكس تاريخ المنطقة وأهميتها كنقطة لقاء بين الشرق والغرب، وبين الصحراء والبحر.
تتجسد روح التلاقي هذه في ساحة الوصل، المركز النابض بالحياة في إكسبو 2020 ومكان التجمع واللقاء للاحتفال سوياً.

تقع ساحة الوصل في نقطة التقاء مناطق المواضيع الثلاثة في إكسبو، وتعلوها قبة عالية لدرجة أنه يمكن لبرج بيزا المائل أن يتسع تحتها.

في ضوء النهار، تحمي التعريشة الزوار من حرارة الشمس، وتوفر الظل للحدائق الموجودة تحتها.

أما في الليل، فتتحول إلى شاشة عرض على مدى 360 درجة، مغطاة بأكثر من 250 جهاز عرض بأحدث التقنيات.
ساحة الوصل هي ملتقى الزوار، وهي قلب إكسبو النابض بالحياة.

In today’s hyperconnected world, mobility is more important than ever – so what better way to embody this than through a visionary structure that looks ready to take flight? With its space-age contours and awe-inspiring exhibits, Alif – The Mobility Pavilion offers visitors an immersive journey through the spectrum of human movement. 

But Mobility – one of Expo’s three main subthemes – is also about moving ideas. Take the lift to the pavilion’s top floor and undertake a voyage into the often-invisible ways that mobility unites us, from the campfire of a nomadic Bedouin all the way through the ultra-connected cities of humanity’s future.


Visitors ride the world’s largest passenger lift, which can transport more than 160 people at a time. The Bedouin girl in the middle of the lift is illuminated, reaching up towards the stars, symbolising the desire to reach new heights.

With lofty mountains in the west, the glistening Black Sea in the east and plenty of cosy mineral springs in between, Bulgaria boasts a wealth of stunning sights to explore. And as the Bulgaria Pavilion at Expo 2020 shows, the Balkan nation offers much more: from rich culture to high-tech innovation to winter sports. Exhibits include a (virtual) walk across the bed of the Black Sea, 3D projections of the nation’s beautiful landscapes, and traditional Bulgarian folk dances.

Technological innovations developed for space exploration such as manned spaceflight offer rich potential for us here on Earth. At a time when efficient resource management is critical, we need to extract from the deep connection between space exploration and climate change.When in orbit, astronauts recycle everything on board, and learn to reproduce oxygen, water, and food from waste. They are trained to sustain prolonged periods in confined spaces and embrace their environment’s limitations by using innovative alternatives to their routines on Earth. How do we take these valuable lessons of circular living and self-sustaining approaches and apply them on this planet? 

How adopting practices of recycling by astronauts help us act sustainably.

With its enormous population and diversity of ancient traditions, India is a place of incredible richness and complexity. The India Pavilion offers a new take on the country that goes beyond its famed culture and stunning landscapes to show a rising economic power that is very much open for business. The pavilion focuses on “New India”, an emerging global hub for innovation, inspiration and investment. Its wide variety of exhibits feature not just the food, tea and Bollywood entertainment that so many know and love, but also the country’s modern-day advancements in technology, aerospace, manufacturing and more.

The India pavilion is a four-level rectangular structure, covered on its upper three floors with rotating tiles in hues of red, orange, and white. 

This kinetic exterior surface also serves as a screen for projected images, such as the face of Mahatma Gandhi. The bottom level features a plate-glass façade.

Space travel and exploration has captured imaginations for generations and the dream of space tourism is now closer to being a reality than ever. At the same time, with outer space remaining one of our few truly shared resources, peacefully managing this distant realm remains crucial. During this fascinating week, we highlight the latest innovations in space research and travel, while also providing a platform to discuss critical issues.

How do we safely and productively explore new frontiers?

Expo 2020 Dubai Opening Ceremony

Long ago, travellers referred to Dubai as Al Wasl, or “the connection” – a name that reflects the area’s heritage as a meeting point. This spirit of coming together takes shape in Al Wasl Plaza, Expo 2020’s spectacular centrepiece and gathering ground for celebration and wonder. 

Situated at the meeting point of Expo’s three thematic districts, Al Wasl Plaza's dome is tall enough to fit the Leaning Tower of Pisa beneath it. By night, she transforms into a 360-degree projection screen, blanketed by more than 250 state-of-the-art projectors. Al Wasl Plaza is a hub for visitors and the vibrant heart of our Expo.
