The International Horticultural Exposition is divided into two categories: the Universal Exposition and the Specialized Exposition. For the Universal Exposition, participating countries will build stand-alone pavilions in an area provided for free by the host country to display their own products and technology. The fee for this will be covered by the government of the participating country. For the Specialized Exposition, the participating country will be responsible for the layout of indoor and outdoor ornaments and exhibits in an area provided by the host country to display some specialized products. According to the rules of international organization, the Universal Exposition will be divided into the General Exposition and Special Exposition. Moreover, the Specialized Exposition falls into four categories: A1, A2, B1 and B2. A1 refers to Large International Horticultural Exhibitions.
