20 years!!! It´s a long time... It´s been even celebrated on the portada of the feria de Sevilla. It was a great event. Hundreds of words have been written about it, you can have a look on the internet but there are about 210.000.000 entries about it. No, I don´t want you to copy any of these articles or information., I would like you to ask any in your family to tell you something about it from his/her personal experience, it maybe an anecdote, his/her opinion, in 200 words.
I have asked to my father and to my mother about the Expo and I am going to writte what they have answered me exactly:
ResponderEliminarMy dad said: Expo was a commemoration to the discovery of America because it was 500 years old since Colon found it. Things that attracted my attention were: 17 pavilion represented a community and Chile pavilion had an iceberg that it was covered each night, it was brought by Patagonia. You had a ticket and when you got into a pavilion the ticket was checked seem if you travelled to that country. Alemania pavilion had the Brandenburgo door. Other interesting thing was the microclimate, same small tubes that expelled spray water because the weather dropped five degrees.
My mum said: I remember the Andalucía in miniature and to meet island and countries that she didn´t know that existed and she liked more poor countries than rich countries because poor people were equal that us or more nice. She liked more these countries than big power.
Conmemorating Expo92
ResponderEliminar1992 was a great year in seville in wich many countries showed us their discovers because of the 5th aniversary of discovery of america.lots of people I have asked tell me hundred of fantastic histories that they have lived in this event.at first my friend javi went to all the concerts wich took place in Sony square where there was a very big screen on the stage.there,were all the best music groups over the world.
I had few options. It was easy to know who asked the question about the Expo92. My brother was too small and doesn't remember anything. My father is often away from home for long. So I chose my mother.
ResponderEliminarMy mother told me that Expo92 opened on April 20th, but she couldn't go until late June because she was doing a competition to become librarian.
She tells me that Expo92 was spectacular. The first impression is that you were entering another world. It was as if you were travelling in many countries, but in a very comfortable way, because the same you were in Mexico, in France or in Australia.
So what she liked most is that the Expo was a rapprochement with customs and cultures of different countries. In addition, some pavilions were of high architectural quality.
The pavillions she liked best were those of Morocco, the Vatican, and the pavillion of navigation. But my mother says that the truth is that everyone had something interesting and she considers herself privileged to live in Seville in 1992.
She estimates it would take a minimum of three days of intensive day from 10 a.m to 4:00 a.m to get a good idea of the Expo. She remembers that in many places were losing a lot of time because we had to make a ticket queue for input and another to see the show. Most attractions are free.
And finally she tells me that the best was the bioclimatic sphere. It was a giant metal ball that sprayed water into small particles and helped the visitors to withstand more than 40 ° C in the shade that the city suffered in the month of July. Seville became famous for this system.
My mother did not want to stop. She says she was remembering many more things, but I told her that it was all right. I'm tired of writing.
my mother was pregnant with myself when the expo was held, so she can tell me much about it, and she remembers a little bitter because she says that the few times she could go, she was tired due to pregnancy, and his belly was heavy.
ResponderEliminarHowever, Antonio, my mother's boyfriend, remember the economic impact of the expo in the city of Seville, and the transformation that resulted in the torneo Avenue, and the monastery of cartuja, which became both areas rehabilitated specifically for the expo, and then, when the exhibition ended, the pavilions that made up the exhibition began to be used as a business and technological area headquarters of major companies.
I personally remember the omnimax pavilion, which I remember I went a few times when I was too young, to watch nature documentaries with my mother before the cinema was burned.
After surf the internet I can say that Expo 92 was a cultural manifestation of art and architecture that gave the expo the image of a visual celebration of the creative.
Whenever I think I was born shortly after the procedure was complete, I get angry, because with all the people I've talked about the expo, as my grandparents, they say it was very nice, and glad the city during an entire summer.
So at last, i can only say that the 92expo was a great and a really beneficial party

I have asked my parents about Expo92 and they have told me a few things about it. They had got a season pass so they could go whenever they wanted. There were many pavilions, one for each country. They showed the best of them to atract tourism. There were also thematic pavilions (navigation, discoveries...). The discoveries pavilion was burned so my parents couldn´t watch it. Every day, there was a parade with musicians, dressed up people, atomizing scent, and always the Expo92´s mascot, a walking bird named Curro. At night, there was a beautiful show at the lake. Fireworks, light and sound. Everyone was expecting it because it was the best of all. They enjoyed very much there. However, it was a very hot year, so there was atomized water everywhere to refresh people, but that wasn´t enough. There wasn´t either enough shadow, so the best time to go was at night. There were also many queues to go into the pavilions. In each pavilion, you had a sign indicating the time that you had to wait before entering. Many times, it was more than an hour waiting. Eating inside the Expo92 was expensive, even cool bottled water to endure extremely high temperatures was not cheap. In that sense, they think that the Expo92 was made for tourists more than for sevillian people.

ResponderEliminarCOMMEMORATING EXPO 92.
When Expo 92 was celebrated my parents were just married. They hadn’t any children yet. Therefore, they visited the international exhibition with other relatives. They were there three or four times alone. But they could see many things. They took a lot of photographs. When I asked my mother what were the photographs she liked the most, she said me that her favourite photos were about the cavalcade. The colourful atmosphere of the cavalcade was the thing she liked the most. Then she showed me a photo about a giant red and white shoe with a person inside. My parents remember it was a great opportunity to know interesting things about other countries. Visitors had passports and they got stamps in them when they came to a new pavilion. One of the most famous pavilions was from Canada. There was a waterfall in the entry of that pavilion. People waited for long hours to visit it and my parents went there one day early in the morning, so they waited only an hour. My parents enjoyed very much when they saw the spectacle of the lake. Although the queues were terrible, the weather was hot and they were very tired, my parents believe that it was worth visiting the Expo 92.
Polemic from his beginnings, deifying in his final result, the Universal Exhibition of Seville left an indelible fingerprint in whom they enjoyed it, and transformed forever the face of the city.
ResponderEliminarNot even the heavy blow that supposed the fire of the pavilion of the Discoveries, you upset a couple of months before the official inauguration, it could neutralize the positive current that crossing the city of top to top.
The day was in the habit of beginning with loose careers, from the first hour, to obtain someone of the admission free of the Movimás, singular mobile cinema, which was distributing the pavilion of Spain.
Between the opening and the closing everything was possible: to be present at the holiday of Moors and Christians for comity of the Pavilion of Valencia, to dance with maoríes in that of New Zealand, to be raised to a Colombian bus, a photo to be done by the highest man of the world in the pavilion of Pakistan, to cross with Induráin at the head of the equipment Banesto or to see a few grooms crossing the enclosure in a bed.
The same thing can say to him of thousand and one show restraint that could be tasted during those days.
The high summer temperatures with an ingenious system of irrigation and vaporization which result gave in being calling a microclimate.
But where undoubtedly the echoes of the Expo continue resounding it is in the recollection whom they enjoyed it or the life was gained in her.
Since I was born in 1994 I didn't have the opportunity to visit the Expo. So I asked my parents to tell me what they remember. My mother still recalls the world's tallest man in the Pakistan pavillion. She also enjoyed very much the spectacles of dancers from exotic countries such as Indonesia, New Zealand, Malaysia, China and so on. She also was impressed by the planetarium: a large dark room where you could contemplate the stars and planets as if you were watching the sky by night. My father told me that what he most liked was the chairlift which transported the visitors from Plaza de Armas into the Expo, so you could see the whole town and the exposition from twenty meters off the ground. He also remembers a lot of famous persons, such as the King Juan Carlos, the Spanish president Felipe González and presidents and ministers from many different countries all over the world. As he is Swiss, he was very impressed by his own country's pavillion, although it was not the most spectacular.

I didn't see that because, in this date, I was in the belly of my mum and was my fault since my mum couldn´t finished that. Expo 92 last 6 months starts at 20 April until 12 october. It was the 500 years since the discovery of America. My parents had a passport in Expo92 which was sealed in all the halls where they entered, they have stamps of halls Uruguay, japon, china, United States, Australia, Italia, Cruzcampo, Disneyland and too much other halls around Expo. They is telling me there was a big water screen caused by a amazing font where the film was proyected. The film was about images of Carabela Pinta, Nao Santa maria, Nao Victoria setting sail from Huelva, according to them, there was amazing. In the Chile´s hall there was a big iceberg incredible, in USA´s hall was exhibition of greats Cadillac, tell me my father and they also tell me how they was laughing seeing maori dances. At night, when the expositions was ending, they usually went at the differents bars acclimated at the differents custom of the other countries in all the world
I was not born at Expo 92 but I have always seen in my house a bear, large white, with the beaked nose with the colors of the rainbow. I asked my mother and told me that was a great experience. She went to the expo for the first time a few hours after it opened it. She went with some friends and was stunned with what he saw: a beautiful campus, with spectacular buildings, full of fun activities and parades, and music and dance groups ... Since then, my mother, who don't knew many people in Seville because they have just moved from Cordoba, went with my brother Ricardo in the stroller, which was two years old, and went Pabellon to Pabellón knowing the different countries. She also went with my father and friends, and one day ate in the restaurant of the Pavilion of Spain next to the Kings of Spain. I saw a photo returning at night with my brother on the shoulders of my father, asleep on his head. Years later my mother ended up working in one of these building, the one of the New Zealand, where was the Institute of Statistics of Andalusia. My mother says that the campus of Expo, finally, has been profitable and there are many companies and research centers.
ResponderEliminarI have asked my mother and says: When will the expo 92 opened my brother pablo had 15 days. As my brother was very small, only could get 1 pass for 15 days. Tells me my parents that my brother pablo while he was very young, was with the eyes wide open, and when entering the halls where the music was very high, my brother never cried. I commented that also had problems with my brother Paul, since that had areas to breastfeed and change diapers. What more you surprised my mother was seeing the man more high of the world, tells me that could measure from 2.10 to 2.30 metres, and not is you happened nothing to do a photo with, but you could not reveal the camera because lost them later. What most I liked my mother is the amount of people of different races who had said that he had: Chinese, French, Australians, Germans, Swedes, Danes, Serbs, Japanese...Also surprised him much its forms of Act and its religions

Every so often, it is an exhibition hall of cultures around the world, in 1992, played exhibit in the city of Seville. It began on April 20 and held on October 12, as the five hundredth anniversary coincided with the discovery of America, his motto was: "The Age of Descubrimienos" the mascot representing the expo was named Curro, and it was a bird with the pick and multi-colored crest. The flags were placed on La Cartuja, there were many pavilions, each a different place, and these flags were exposed cultures through objects, typical restaurants of the place, and so on. at the entrance to each pavilion were formed long lines as they came from all over the world just to see the exhibition in Seville, as it is a unique experience not seen every day. The elderly and people could get pregnant without having to wait in line (my mother, for example, at that time was pregnant with my sister), the pavilions, you could say they were like museums where you could take some memory typical of the place it was like watching countless cities, without leaving your own city. Today there are still some remains of buildings like this show that it is clear that not happen again in the city of Seville to within a very long time.
ResponderEliminarWell I talked to my father, who is a member of my family who luckily was at Expo 92, my father remembers many times this global event, says it's a shame he has left everything aside and that has not been used anywhere they were created for this event, says it was great the monorail that went all the Cartuja’s island through all the streets that all halls were built, and especially the flag of navigation was very nice and it was something worth seeing, but just remember the good times also recalls when he went all over the news, the short circuit occurred in one of the halls and centers and which caused a large fire inside the pavilion. Also remember, not everyone remembers this, the ships that brought you to the event, in addition to the locomotives that were in a park near Magic Island, but certainly the most striking aspect of this whole event was the construction of the bridge the V centennial, which is very nice, but not well built as it is very small and is one of the things my father did not like about this subject, but ultimately recalls the Expo as a great event

Seville, 2012. Expo 92 is just a memory. Twenty years have passed since the opening of Expo that it seemed that there would never come. It was a day like today, April 20, when King Don Juan Carlos I cut the tape of an event that would be closed six months later, on October 12, upon completion of five hundred years, five centuries since Christopher Columbus set by first foot in the New World.
ResponderEliminarThe official celebration of this anniversary seems a little watered down. Especially in comparison to what, officially also entail such event for the city. The twentieth anniversary of Expo 92
to my mother that he loved as he was, that it was very great and precious people who have visited around the world, I remember the Andalusia in miniature and to meet island and country clubs That She Did not Know That Existed and she liked more poor than rich country clubs country clubs Because That poor people were equal or more us nice. She liked more than big power These country clubs.
Expo92 was expensive, even cool bottled water to endure extremely high temperatures was not cheap. In that sense, they think that the Expo92 was made for tourists more than for sevillian people.
I asked my parents about Expo 92 but unfortunately I have not been able to say anything because neither lived in Seville and only had 18 years with the possibility had not come to see it. Chipiona lived in my mother and my father in Utrera. As they could not tell me anything I resorted to my grandparents and I only was able to tell an anecdote my grandfather. He said he remembers that August 13 was a very hot day. It was the day of Coca Cola. He says that back home, eager to get his sister learned that the Pavilion of the Future was the Prince of Asturias and had to wait 3 hours in the sun to the Prince saw his sister because he could not leave alone because his parents had left in charge of his sister. After 3 hours the Prince went to everyone who was waiting outside and took pictures with her sister. After the fateful day when her sister got home he realized that he had the camera and his mother forced him back to the camera looking down the road who had returned. My grandfather said to have been one of the worst days of his life.

ResponderEliminarThere had different pavilions where each country participating in the exhibition showed them their culture. About six months this hard.
Afternoon there was a parade where all visitors participating. In some wards were long queues to get in and visit. But this did not matter because the finish wait was worth the time. in every room of these might be seen the different cultures of the country.
One of the pavilions have told me and now has caught my attention was one that was supposed to had a piece of iceber. If I could see him now would think that would impress me the most as it is even hard to imagine right now. My family thinks it was an unforgettable experience. To them he was sorry that it was over and they spent many memorable moments in it.
Germany brought part of the Berlin Wall. It had all kinds of restaurants typical of some countries. Technological wards were the most interesting content like fujisu advanced. The days passed and we did not have time to see so many things. My mother, my cousins and uncles went every day to visit the Expo92. Had a passport and was sealed at the entrance to each pavilion everyone had a goal to get that passport stamps. The end of each day had a expect of lights and fireworks on the lake.

ResponderEliminarWhen the expo started my mother was pregnant with me and visited many wards me in the womb. My father worked in a pavilion that was called "The Kangaroo" and sang. I was born on July 8, 1992, on July 20 returned to the show with my mother in her arms. Wards visited almost every country in my cart, I saw my father sing and spent three months staying asleep at Sony Plaza, while the most important music of the 90 I served as maid for my sweet dreams at the Expo '92.
ResponderEliminarI took the pet recall Curro, who gave me my aunt Cai.
The big infrastructure that was mounted to the Expo on the Island of La Cartuja which modernized the city, and brought the high speed train to Madrid communicating, making Seville in one of the most modern cities like Barcelona (held in 92 the Olympic Games), failed to capitalize his fame. After completion of all Expo pavilions and exhibition were evacuated and mostly demolished, without giving a future that the city had used to create a technology park that today, after 20 years have begun to implement it.
Since I was born in 1995 I didn't have the opportunity to visit the Expo. So I asked my aunt and she says: What more impressed me was the iceberg brought from the Patagonía by sea up to Seville and was exposed in the pavilion of Chile. The most enterteining thing was the " kangaroo pub ", recreating an Australian pub, with music and dance. I remember also the dance of the maoríes that they realized in a species of island that it was simulating his royal environment. The pavilion of Morocco for me was the nicest, it was a palace similar to the Fortress of Seville, where you were feeling as a queen it dwells. In general the environment was very special and good.

Well I had to find some information because my parents not lived in Seville and hadn't time to go to the expo.
ResponderEliminarThe "' Universal exhibition in Seville 1992"' was held in the capital of Andalusia, Spain in 1992, and was popularly known as "Expo ' 92" or "Expo". As all post-1931 Universal exhibition, it was regulated by the international exhibitions Bureau. It had a duration of six months, began on April 20 and ended October 12, the date coinciding with the celebration of the V centenary of the discovery of America V centenary of the discovery of America, due to this fact its motto was "the age of discovery the official mascot of the Expo 92 called gigs pet Curro, a nice bird beak and multicolor crest." At the end of the Exposition Universal infrastructures have exploited to convert them into a technological park called Cartuja 93 and a theme park called magical island, in addition to uses administrative, University and of equipment for the city.
I only remenber that my grandfather,who is dead told me that met many people from different cultures, religions, customs, ...,and was one of the experienced more happinesst in his life
My parents were very happy that Seville was Expo92 headquarters. It was clear that was favored to the prime minister at the time (Felipe González). Sevilla was modernized a lot about transportation, technology, society ... But he had a problem. There were too many things totally unnecessary. Many properties were expropriated, there were more supplies than necessary, estimates were above the reality. Above all, we spend a lot of money unnecessarily. Still, it was a very exciting project and joined Sevilla whole for a cause. We have modern La Cartuja site with modern facilities.

The infrastructure of the Expo 29 have been used to reconvert into a technology park called Cartuja 93 and a theme park called Magic Island, as well as administrative practices, academics and equipment for the city.
I also note briefly that my uncle was Expo 92, the idea of an exhibition is not forged in two days, is a project I was working for years. It all started during the first official visit of S. M. Don Juan Carlos I at Santo Domingo (Dominican Republic) on May 31, 1976, there the King of Spain announced its intention to organize a universal exhibition which showed the world the qualities of Spain and Latin American countries are taking advantage of near the V Centenary of the Discovery of America and thus honor this event. Those were difficult times for the country because they had left a complex political situation was scarcely a year, with the end of the Franco era and the recent establishment of democracy.
