WASHINGTON STATE PAVILION
Visitors were
drawn to
the Washington State Pavilion by colourful hanging banners.
Inside, a unique presentation environment shuttled visitors along a moving sidewalk through one of the world's longest projection screens. Giant images were created by 72 choreographed motion picture and slide projectors. The feature depicted Washington's scenic wonders from both city and rural life.
The Garden Plaza featured entertainment amongst hemlocks and rhododendrons.
FROM THE BEST OF EXPO GUIDE
The State of Washington offers a travelogue presented in a unique fashion. You enter the pavilion through a shower of stars created by lights. You then find yourself in a tunnel, standing on a moving sidewalk called the Travolator. Here you'll see a seven minute film depicting Washington's scenery, people and local events. The main exhibit hall, Discovery Place, provides individual television monitors on which you can select a short feature on a variety of subjects pertaining to the state.
