Introduction
Expo City Dubai is the legacy district of Expo 2020, transformed into a sustainable city and cultural destination in southern Dubai. Its iconic trio of theme pavilions — Terra (Sustainability), Alif (Mobility) and the Opportunity pavilion — together with the 138 m rotating Al Wasl Dome, form a futuristic landmark cluster. Where the world's pavilions once showcased creativity, the site now keeps core exhibits, green spaces, fountains and nightly light shows, serving as a venue for families, technology and arts, and a model of Dubai's post-oil urban planning. Visitors feel the cutting edge of design and sustainability thinking here.
