The Sri Lanka Pavilion was framed by brightly coloured pandals (archways) normally installed over roadways during festive occasions.  Symbolizing a nation in motion, a statue of buddha was framed by a large batik that depicted "perahera" (the famous Sri Lankan religious procession).  Large flags hung from the pavilion's ceiling as a form of communication.  Ceiling flags are a Sri Lankan custom to indicate family, district or religious orders.

Tourism exhibits were flanked with a quote from Marco Polo describing the island nation as "paradise."
