The Rotterdam Pavilion will invite visitors to enjoy the rhythm of falling rain produced by an artificial cloud while never getting their feet wet.
The artificial cloud will create a nine-minute experience of various weather patterns, from sunshine to excessive rainfall, similar to the unpredictable and challenging climate in the Netherlands port city of Rotterdam, which is largely below sea level.
The rains will be accompanied by lightning and thunder produced by advanced technology in the pavilion, "Rotterdam Water City," inside the Urban Best Practices Area at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo.
