As the caretakers of Earth’s mightiest waterway, the epic Amazon River, Brazilians have a unique appreciation of the beauty, power and importance of our shared water resources. Now, with the meditative Brazil Pavilion, they’ve brought an authentic, multisensory Amazonian experience to the Dubai desert. Strikingly fashioned from tensile steel and white fabric, the pavilion recreates the sights, sounds and even aromas of the Amazon basin, complete with a thin flood of water in the main exhibit area and immersive projections of the rainforest all around. And don’t worry: If you’d rather not get your feet wet, boots will be provided.

The Brazil Pavilion is an immense, shallow rectangular pool carved with gentle curves. A boxy, 18-metre-high steel structure stretched with translucent, white fabric panels seems to float over the pool on columns, referencing Brazil’s riverside stilt houses.

This small tropical nation has had a colossal influence on international trade and travel for centuries – moving people, cargo and, more recently, digital data across oceans and between the Americas. The Panama Pavilion at Expo 2020 puts you right in the middle of the action with a virtual-reality cruise through its trademark Panama Canal, the man-made wonder that links the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. You’ll also time travel through an immersive tour of Panama’s history, explore exhibits on the nation’s forward-thinking sustainability and tourism initiatives, and savour delicious Panamanian dishes.

Known for its advanced education system and sophisticated social outlook, Uruguay has long been seen as a nation of forward-thinkers in political and economic spheres. The nation’s pavilion has a good news story to share with Expo 2020: one that includes an economy that has been liberalised in recent decades, opening up the country to new investment and economic opportunities. Discover this land of sun-soaked coastline and lush grasslands, and learn how Uruguay works to balance its economic progress with responsible, sustainable development to protect these natural gifts.

Sweden’s vast forests are places of magic, beauty and solitude. The Sweden Pavilion offers visitors an enchanting blend of cultures, combining a Nordic woodland-inspired experience with Middle Eastern architectural flair for a tour of the bio-circular economies and sustainable initiatives of tomorrow. The pavilion’s tree-filled design leads visitors through a variety of “clearings”, where interactive multimedia exhibits present an array of themed topics. Explore next-generation travel systems, immerse yourself in futuristic cities and relax to the authentic sounds of Sweden’s rich woodlands.

The essence of the forest inspires the Sweden Pavilion, which fuses dense Nordic woodland and Islamic geometric design in a plaza full of cozy tree house structures and hundreds of tree trunks, some as tall as 18 metres. The building’s airy ground floor is built for wandering, housing public areas, exhibitions, and cafés, while the tree house conference rooms are raised aloft, forming a roof over parts of the pavilion.
