You should have seen Shanghai's then!
Here's the latest sneak peak of Yumeshima, the venue of EXPO 2025, Osaka, Kansai, Japan!
The construction of the Grand Roof (Ring), which began on Jun. 30th, is now ongoing at 4 different spots✨
There are cranes all over Yumeshima like all the cranes from Osaka came here🏗️
Big and small cranes, and lots of trucks are hard at work to get everything ready to welcome everyone in 2025!

The Spanish Pavilion at Expo Osaka 2025 to be Designed by Enorme Studio, Néstor Montenegro, and Smart and Green Design
The new pavilion is named "The Kuroshio Current," paying homage to one of the "secrets" of Spanish navigation, whose existence has endured throughout the centuries.Source: https://www.archdaily.com/1004802/the-spanish-pavilion-at-expo-osaka-2025-to-be-designed-by-enorme-studio-nestor-montenegro-and-smart-and-green-designThe proposal for the design of the Spanish Pavilion at Expo Osaka 2025 has been selected by the Board of Directors of AC/E (Spanish Cultural Action), following the recommendation of a jury presided over by Juan Luis Gordo and composed of 10 experts.
Concerns have been raised over whether organizers of the 2025 Osaka Expo will be able to meet deadlines following reports they have already requested the central government lift a new cap on the overtime hours of construction workers.
According to The Japan Times, there are mounting concerns around whether the dedicated pavilions for foreign nations taking part in the expo will be ready by the scheduled opening on 13 April 2025. Osaka officials have denied the expo itself could be postponed.
Many foreign exhibitors had delayed decisions on whether to take part in Osaka, while local construction firms have reportedly showed reluctance in accepting individual contracts from participating nations due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia-Ukraine war pushing up the cost of materials.
