An
official memorial passport for the upcoming 2019 Beijing International
Horticultural Exhibition (Beijing Expo 2019) was released at the expo’s
flagship store of licensed products Friday. The passport will be available at
all licensed stores of the expo starting from May 1.
The
first page of the passport is made of banknote paper, and the inside pages are
made of anti-counterfeiting paper with chrysanthemum watermark. The front page
has a metal strip embedded, and the rest of the pages are printed with
anti-counterfeiting marks that present different images when seen under
different light conditions
The
passport, featuring smart scanning, has national flowers of different countries
printed on it. The tourists can have a close look at the beauty of the
horticulture of different countries and enjoy the fun of collecting visa stamps
while having in-depth experience at the Beijing Expo 2019. The passport carries
a special memorial significance.
The
memorial passport is a licensed collection of souvenir stamps of the Beijing
Expo 2019. A total of over 100 stamps are offered based on the approval from
participating countries and international organizations. They carry the
features of these participants and exotic tastes, enabling the visitors to
experience the arts and charms of these countries and organizations without traveling
around the globe.
At
present, the issuance of souvenir passports is a common practice for major
events and tourist attractions in China. Such practice originated from the 1999
Kunming International Horticultural Exposition and came to a peak at the 2010
Shanghai Expo.
The
souvenir passport was priced at 30 yuan at both the Kunming and Shanghai
events, and will remain the same at this year’s expo in Beijing.
