The Tunisia pavilion at the Expo Osaka 2025 in Japan has received over 500,000 visitors, according to the Centre for Export Promotion (CEPEX) on Monday. The "Osaka 2025" expo, which runs from April 13 to October 13, 2025, on the artificial island of Yumeshima in Japan, has the theme "Designing the Society of the Future, Imagining Our Life Tomorrow".
A Milestone Achievement
The 500,000th visitor was welcomed with applause and taken to the honor room to receive traditional handicraft gifts, symbolizing authenticity and openness to the world, added CEPEX in a statement. Despite being built on a small area of only 300m², the Tunisian pavilion has established itself as "a fascinating mirror of Tunisia's millennial heritage, its dynamic present, and its promising future". Tunisia is portrayed as a bridge between cultures and peoples, and the pavilion itself becomes a living symbol of its heritage and creativity.
International Acclaim
Beyond the general public, the pavilion has hosted ministers, ambassadors, parliamentarians, and international personalities, who have unanimously praised the quality and cultural depth of the venue. Some have described it as a "model", highlighting the creativity and professionalism of the design and animations. "It is both a diplomatic salon and a warm space, where official meetings take on a human dimension".
Media Coverage
The Japanese and Asian press, as well as Arab and European media, have reported on the Tunisian pavilion, according to CEPEX, which estimates that this coverage reinforces the country's visibility and attractiveness on the global stage.
