The office said that the Macao Pavilion, a design of "Lanterna do Coelhinho", is now in the process of decoration and exhibition preparation. All the remaining work will be finished by March.
The Macao Pavilion is covered by a double-layer glass membrane and fluorescent screens. Kinetic balloons will form the head and tail of the "rabbit." In Chinese mythology, the jade rabbit welcomes visitors to a magical fairyland.
