This year's world Expo, 9 June 2011

It seems that every Chinese city hosts a world expo of something to put themselves on the world map. This year Xian is hosting the world horticultural expo. The symbol is a pomegrante, a very healthy fruit. And this sign at nearby Mt Hua seemed to capture the beauty and benefit of flowers - not quite the same as horticulture but in the same natural spirit and an expression of the Chinese appreciation of nature.
