DUBAI: Jordan is the first country to receive a Type B pavilion in preparation for the Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai scheduled for 2025.

A total of nine Type B and C pavilions have been constructed on Yumeshima Island by the Japan Association for the 2025 World Exposition and leased to participating countries and regions for the expo.

The pavilions were unveiled to the press on Thursday with Jordan set to begin interior work and exhibition.

More than 100 countries and regions have opted for Type B and C pavilions instead of Type A, which they would construct themselves.

Type B pavilions, which are used by individual countries or regions, are one-story buildings in a row-house style, with each pavilion separated by a wall.

The interior and exterior can be freely designed.

Type C pavilions, which are shared among several countries and regions, have a common entrance, in an arrangement like a multi-tenant commercial facility.
