    VTheme: Chinese Wisdom in Urban Development场馆主题:城市发展中的中华智慧Location: Within Zone A of the Expo Site展馆位置:A片区Pavilion Features展馆特色The main structure of the China Pavilion, "The Crown of the East," has a distinctive¹ roof, made of traditional dougong or brackets, which date back more than 2,000 years. This unique structural² component³ of interlocking wooden brackets is one of the most important elements in traditional Chinese architecture. Dougong was widely used in the Spring and Autumn Period (770 BC-467 BC).
    中国馆的主体建筑，“东方之冠”，采用传统的、拥有2000多年历史的斗拱式建筑风格，其屋顶设计独特。这种木砖相扣的独特建筑风格是中国传统建筑的最重要的组成部分。在春秋时期（公元前770年到467年）斗拱建筑风格被人们广泛采用。
    The contour design of the pavilion is based on the concept of "Oriental Crown, Splendid China, Ample Barn, and Rich People," to express the spirit and disposition⁴ of Chinese culture. The pavilion will have a core exhibition area on the top floor, an experience area on the second and a functional⁵ area on the first. China's achievements in urban development from ancient to modern times will be the core theme of the pavilion.
    展馆建筑外观设计基于“东方之冠，鼎盛中华，天下粮仓，富庶百姓”这一概念，表达中国文化的精神与气质。展馆将核心展区设置在顶层，第二层为体验区，第一层为功能区。表现从古至今，中国在城市发展方面取得的成就是展馆的核心主题。
