Mexico celebrates its National Pavilion Day yesterday with a gala performance at the Expo Center.

  Jorge Guajardo, Mexico's Ambassador to China, addresses the ceremony.  

Chen Duqing, China's deputy commissioner general for World Expo 2010, addresses the ceremony.

Themed "Living Better — History and Future," the Mexico Pavilion features a Kite Forest combining colorful kites and green grass.

The kites, in a kind of fantasy setting, symbolize aspirations for a better life. The site contains a large public green area, which represents people coming together for a better life and environmental protection.
