The first World Exposition was in London in 1851. Six million

visitors took a trip to Hyde Park to see new wonders of science
and technology. In 1889, the World Exposition was in Paris. It
was very crowded, with about 32 million visitors. There were
many exciting things for the visitors to see and do.
At the Gallery of Machines, there were 16,000 machines. They
were the best of modern technology. There were musicians and
dancers from Java, Vietnam, Africa, the Middle East, the USA
and more. The food wasn’t like the fast food of today. There
weren’t any hot dogs, chips or fizzy drinks. People ate tasty,
authentic meals from around the world.
But, of course, the favourite attraction was the
300-metre-tall Eiffel Tower. It stood at the
entrance to the Exposition and people walked
under it to go in. Gustave Eiffel designed the
tower for the Exposition and until 1930, it was
the tallest structure in the world. At night, the
Eiffel Tower had red, white and blue lights.
Electric lights were new in 1889, so it was
amazing to see them.
World Expositions – or Expos – are popular
today, too. In 2015, there was a World Expo in
Milan with 21 million visitors. Where is the
next World Expo going to be? Do you think
you will go?
