The dazzling cube or "Seed Cathedral" formed by more than 60,000 transparent acrylic rods of the United Kingdom Pavilion gets illuminated tonight for the first time as the structure was handed over to its operators.?

At the handover ceremony, Carma Elliot, British consul general in Shanghai, expressed gratitude for those constructors involved in the project for their hard work. Tagging the pavilion as a "gift" to China and an "open city park" at the Expo site, she invited visitors to embark on an unforgettable journey through the pavilion.

She said the pavilion is like her child as she has worked on the program for three years.

The UK's Expo team with the British consul general in Shanghai will take charge of the daily operation and management after receiving the pavilion built by the MACE Group and Jiangsu Suzhong Construction Group Co Ltd.

The 6,000-square-meter pavilion is composed of the cube-like structure known as the "Seed Cathedral" and the area around it is designed like wrapping paper, making it seem as if the wrappers have fallen open to reveal a sparkling jewel of life.

During the daytime, each of these 7.5-meter-long rods will act like fiber optic filaments, drawing on daylight to illuminate the interior. At night, light sources embedded in each rod will allow the whole structure to glow.

Visitors can relax around the open space or enter the "Seed Cathedral" to admire the seeds in the spines, marveling how such tiny seeds can produce wonders of nature and life.
