Green World Gardening Expo and Greening Qingdao

穿过时光的隧道,回忆2008年,青岛作为中国惟一举办奥帆赛的城市并且出色地完成了这届比赛,成为全世界媒体关注的焦点和全世界民众瞩目的城市,2009年,国际园艺生产者协会把2014世界园艺博览会的举办权再次交给青岛,世园会成为青岛继奥帆赛之后承接的又一重大国际性活动,同时也充分体现了对青岛举办大型会展能力的认可。人们相信,青岛将会成为中国的又一会展王国,美丽的青岛将绽放出最璀璨的光芒。

With Qingdao's successful bid for the 2014 World Gardening Expo, once again, the eyes of the world are focused on Qingdao, a beautiful coastal city. In 2008, as the host city for the Olympic Regatta, Qingdao became the focus of world media, winning attention from people all over the world. In 2009, when bidding for hosting the World Gardening Expo, the delegation from Qingdao enumerated Qingdao's four advantages and three special characteristics to host the World Gardening Expo, which won full confirmation and high appraisals from all members of the judging panel. The International Association of Horticultural Producers (AIPH) consequently authorized Qingdao to host the World Gardening Expo, which becomes another major international event to be held in Qingdao. Thus far, the planning and design at the hosting site Baiguoshan have been completed. In today's climate of globalization, we are sure that Qingdao will once again win the praises of the world. At the same time, the World Gardening Expo will bring about both short-term and long- term, both direct and indirect and both visible and invisible macro effects and gargantuan value for Qingdao. Through the World Gardening Expo, Qingdao's ecological construction, urban image, investment environment and cultural characteristics will win extensive attention worldwide, thus constantly promoting Qingdao's international competence. In 2014, Qingdao will make a display of the power of nature, the beauty of life and the influence exerted on nature by the way we live. As Marco Polo showed the prosperous images of ancient China to the western countries, the World Gardening Expo in 2014 will show Qingdao to the world.
