The pavilion will be divided into eight key spaces where visitors will experience the country's best-kept hidden treasures.
Visitors will be taken on a voyage through time, from the world’s first recorded civilisation to the virtual experiences of breathtaking landscapes, cultural and religious diversity, rich artisan traditions, and strong economic potentials that the South Asian nation offers to the world.
The pavilion will also feature a Pakistani cuisine restaurant by the name of “The Dhabba” and a souvenir shop, depicting impeccable crafts and providing a taste of the sumptuous cuisine from all parts of Pakistan.
