"For the United Arab Emirates, our most attractive journey is through the boundless and magnificent desert.

So we decided to bring the sand of the United Arab Emirates to China to share with us the magnificence of the UAE and the development story of the UAE.

Salim, Saeed al al Armani, the chief representative of the UAE exhibition area in Shanghai, told reporters that the UAE pavilion can provide visitors with a special experience tour. World Expo

Armani said that visitors would like to visit the UAE pavilion to feel the friendship of the UAE people, understand the culture of the UAE and the direction of its future development.

Stepping into the "dunes" of the UAE pavilion, people do not see vast expanses of "deserts", they are more clear streams, cool woods and stunning urban buildings.

Through the opening movie "twinkling of an eye", UAE children Rachid entered the United Arab Emirates with the audience, and let people understand that the UAE people who lived on Pearl collecting 40 years ago benefited from the development and utilization of abundant oil and gas resources and jumped into the ranks of the world's rich and prosperous modern nations.

The United Arab Emirates has the highest oil and natural gas reserves in the world.

This rich oil country does not simply "eat on the ground". Its vision is confined to the richly endowed resources of oil and natural gas.

In recent years, the United Arab Emirates has been actively engaged in economic diversification, especially focusing on the development and utilization of new energy such as wind and solar energy, and the promotion of "zero emission" technology and circular economy, and has been actively applied to urban practice.

The UAE film is trying to tell people that oil is valuable, but the UAE people have always realized that they can not simply rely on consumption of natural resources to achieve sustainable development of the country.

Armani briefed reporters that the United Arab Emirates is building a "zero carbon city" in the desert of the outskirts of the capital city of Abu Dhabi. It will be the first city in the world that does not use a drop of oil or "zero carbon emissions".

"This is the example that the United Arab Emirates has shown to the world the harmonious coexistence of mankind and nature."

At the UAE pavilion, viewers have the opportunity to see this "zero carbon city" and feel the future "zero carbon" life.

According to Armani, the city is lined with trees. People wake up in the morning to go to work on a personal bus rapid pit system. They enter offices to open air-conditioning with solar power, taste vegetables that are fed by recirculating water at noon, and use seawater after solar energy desalination when they return home at night.

He said that after the completion of the construction plan in 2018, the "zero carbon city" is expected to become a global renewable energy "Silicon Valley".

At that time, 47 thousand and 500 people will live and work on the 640 hectares of land.

Armani also hopes that more tourists will have the chance to travel to UAE.

In addition to the well known creative buildings, the tourism industry in the UAE wildlife reserve is developing rapidly.

According to Armani, the UAE is sunny all year round, and beach sand is everywhere. It is winter and spring season from October to April next year. The weather is mild and suitable for tourism.

In addition, Armani also introduced a green revolution in the capital city of Abu Dhabi.

The UAE is implementing the "Abu Dhabi 2030 plan", which is an investment of more than 1 trillion dollars, introducing the standard of "green building" to build Abu Dhabi into a sustainable city.
