Higher visitor numbers at the EXPO in Zaragoza, up to 72,400 on Saturday, has resulted however in long queues to get into the most popular pavillions. The German and Japanese pavilions have long queues from before the opening time and later in the day waiting times can exceed three hours.
Even for the ‘fast-pass’ machines visitors need upto an hour to reserve a visiting time, and some with the passes have had to wait upto two hours in the sun to get into the Spanish pavilion.
Sunday saw the popular Japanese pavilion close for five hours with the visit of the heir to the throne, Prince Naruhito, who remains in Zaragoza until Tuesday.
