About 10,000 visitors received a crown from the pavilion as a present.

The design of the pavilion came from flowers in bud, symbolizing a vigorous, prosperous and booming country and its cities. The exhibition centers on the success stories of urban development, architectural and cultural heritage, natural protection, people's achievements, sports and scientific development, among others.

It aims to showcase how Lithuanians get along well together and take an eco-friendly approach towards nature in the process of developing the country into an important international political, cultural and economic center in the Baltic Sea region.
