2010 World Expo Shanghai chinaChina unveiled the Tourism Promotional Slogan and Emblem for 2010 World Expo Shanghai China during a global announcement ceremony at the newly-opened Shanghai World Financial Center on November 17.

The slogan is ‘Shanghai China More Discovery More Experience.’ The emblem is comprised of a traditional Chinese 'sea wave' pattern in a blue color, the Chinese characters 'Shang' and 'Hai' in the cursive style of calligraphy, the Arabic numerals '2010' for the year when the World Expo will be held and the English word 'Shanghai' for the city where the World Expo will take place.

The World Expo 2010 Tourism Promotion Slogan has the following three meanings. First of all, the World Expo 2010 Shanghai China is organized by the nation and the host city of Shanghai is to serve the whole country. Secondly, the words "Discovery" and "Experience" are for people coming to discover the colorful facets of the Expo's theme -"Better City, Better Life", a city's rich and significant cultural resources and heritages, and the unique charm of metropolitan tourism. Thirdly, two words of "More" mean the World Expo 2010 will be more fantastic than ever.

This is first time that China has launched tourism promotion slogans, emblems and images with a city theme at the national level. Shanghai aims to turn the tourism promotion slogans, emblems, and images for World Expo into a unique intangible legacy of the 2010 Shanghai World Expo and into symbols of Shanghai as a city pursuing sustainable tourism development.
