It contains artistic renderings and descriptions of all of the pavilions and exhibits. It contains detailed maps to help with site navigation as well as subway and city maps to assist in getting to the Expo grounds in Shanghai. Unlike most Expos of the past where Guidebooks are prolific, the obscure location to obtain one of these books made it more difficult for the average Fairgoer to get one. Why Expo did this is a mystery to me. Unlike most Fairs, I certainly didn't see many Fairgoers with the guidebook in-hand at Expo.
