The Shanghai World Expo site involves massive, amazing structures and millions of yuan in spending - but none of it would be possible without the dedicated workers building it from the ground up, writes Yang Jian Feng Bin is a 38-year-old carpenter from Hunan Province who has been working on the China Pavilion on the wooden structures since construction began last December.

When asked where he works, Feng points to the highest corner of the pavilion which, at 63 meters, is three times higher than any other Expo pavilion.
