荷兰国家馆的名字为"快乐街"。整个设计是沿着一整条街进行布置。设计师准备了17幢不同装饰风格的房子,每幢都是一个小展馆,来展现荷兰在空间、能源和水利方面的创新。

这些小屋将像熟透的苹果一般挂在快乐街上,而不是呆板无趣地列成一排,人们从很远的地方就能看见这条快乐街。  

快乐街希望告诉人们:路,还有另一条。即使现实中不可行,但能在快乐街上感受变化着的欢愉,也就足够了。快乐街倡导的正是一种人文关怀。 

Time now to continue our special coverage on the Shanghai World Expo. When people think of the Netherlands, a low lying country with numerous dams, tulips and clogs come to mind. At the upcoming Wold Expo in Shanghai, the country will demonstrate that it has far more to offer.

The Dutch pavilion is called "Happy Street". It's an entire street in the shape of the number eight - an auspicious number in Chinese culture. 26 small houses will be elevated along the the 400-meter long main pedestrian strip. The houses will present exhibitions exploring themes such as energy, water, city space and many other urban issues.

Construction of the "happy street" will be completed by February.

In the meantime, the Dutch port city of Rotterdam will be represented at the Urban Best Practices Area, with a focus on water and delta technology. The Netherlands is world famous for building on pile foundations.

Around 40 percent of the country lies below sea level. The country hopes visitors can get a personal experience of what its like living below sea level. It also wants to share its experience in the management of water resources.
