I was there, but it was so crowded I only got in a few pavilions. The US pavilion was such an embarrassment, just a mess of stuff. Morocco had a gorgeous mosaic jewel box. Australia had a large amphitheater. You ascended a spiral ramp passing various exhibits then found yourself at the top of a theater in the round. Then an all encircling aerial film had you swooping across Australia. All in all I remember a lot of stunning architecture but underwhelming displays. The big treat was the daily parade, a marvelous surrealist experience. Still have my souvenir T shirt!

Yeah I remember the long queue. That's why I only saw a few pavillions on the inside. Thanks for your message.

I was there!! Was based in Gibraltar at the time so we made at least a couple of trips to the Expo. I particularly remember the British pavilion with the sailing boat and the the water running down the front of the building and the Sri Lankan pavilion which served the best tea I have ever tasted especially good on such a hot day. I also remember when we walked up to the US pavilion there were some (I assume Spanish) youngsters playing basketball on seeing us they lost a bit of their swagger when I believe they thought we were American!! It's a while back now so my memory of it all is a bit hazy but still have the official guide book as a permanent reminder!!

In 2005 a friend and I visited Spain and Sevilla included one of our stops... we stumbled on this place by accident and were fascinated at why such a magnificent infrastructure would be otherwise abandoned. That was before smart phones and easy internet access, so until now I haven't found much about it! Thanks

Thank you for sharing. I understood back then the plan was to turn it into a new booming business park. But I understand that never happened.

@@-richard-3039 when Expo'92 ended, there was planned to make a gigant themepark mixed with a tech park, it was called cartuja 93 (because is the cartuja island), the tower, monorail and the cablecar was operative after expo92, and they make some atracctions like a house of terror. At that time people could enter free, it was public streets but you needed to pay for the atractions. The countries buildings was ready to be sold to technology enterprises. But Expo92 leave a big crisis in whole Spain, specially in Sevilla, so Cartuja 93 project was cancelled like a year ago, and that zone begin is way to the death. but, in 1998, arround the lake, the european union help a themepark enterprise to build a new park there called "Isla Magica" (as reference to Cartuja's island), it still being operative. With the pass of the years, autonomous communities pabillions (that where arround the lake) have been demolished to expand the park, build a parking, atracctions, etc. And some of the other countries pabillions was transferred to their contruies, other where demolished, and other still there (lasi pabillion being demolished was ONU's in 2020), and a few other are abandonated and vandalized. Now the whole place (except the park) are abandoned, it only have some tech enterprises but for example, the rocket still there, and the river have no water... you should search in google "expo92 actualidad" or "expo92 antes y despues". And if you are wondering, the monorail and the cablecar was removed( cablecar stations still there) and the tower still but not operative since 2006. the monorails where took to a junkyard for a few years, one was restored for a mall in Zaragoza, but the rest have been being destroyed and selled as junk. The monorail stations are now buildings with restaurants and cofeeshops. If you go now to Sevilla and visit that place, you still can see expo'92 decorations, logos, etc.

@@GargonStudios cierto una crisis creada por la mayor corrupción de la historia de andaluca ..y que a día de hoy 32 años después a un seguimos arrastrando .. Andalucia hubiera sabido sacar partido de ese mega futuro y de las súper mega estructuras ..Andalucia seria una potencia Europea .pero lastimosa mente somos la pobreza y decadencia de 38 años de corrupción.. pero Andalucia goza de ser una tierra que ofrece todo Montaña clima y mar ..lastima que nunca se aya apostado por ella

Thank you Richard for uploading this. I went there twice but all I have it is memories. Looking this film and comparing with 19th century's exposition, this one is quite underwhelming. A great corporations fest though.

@@-richard-3039 You are welcome. Reading again my comment, it seems I am undermining your film, it is not the case, I was referring to the venue in Seville. I was there on the opening day and was very impressed by the clock functioning with a wheel and buckets of water. When I came back with my girlfriend this attraction was no longer working. The French, British, German and USA pavilions were not that attractive. New Zealand and Venezuela both promoting their waterfall with film projections that really made you feel one was there.

El video es una autentica Joya..... yo fui a la Expo 92..... Un solo dia o mejor solo una noche , horrible de calor en agosto , vivo a 100 Km de Sevilla y por aquel entonces era muy joven y con poco dinero para desplazarme y fui en ese tren de cercanias...... hoy ,quizas, seria distinto .....aunque era muy caro para mi familia,era una autentica maravilla , espero que el traductor funcione adecuadamente... y lo dicho ,llevo buscando recuerdos y este video es una Joya, Gracias . Encontre un resumen de EXPO 92 tras 30 años ,esta es la realidad..... kzitem.info/news/bejne/x3uixa2FhJZilH4&ab_channel=BRAINTIME

Eso era futuro .. jamas andalucia volverá a tener ese desarrollo eso fue futuro una pena que todo se extinguió y que los andaluces no hayamos sabido aprovechar aquello y a ver seguido con ese futuro..Andalucia y los andaluces hubiéramos sabido que esas mega estructuras no hubieran dado sitio a crear una potencia de una provincia potencialmente fuerte y no que seguimos como hace 50 años siendo el culo de Europa y el desecho de España a un siendo la provincia mas grande ..
