World Peace Pavilion
It was here during the G7 Summit of June 1995 that the World Peace Pavilion
was officially opened by the seven visiting Foreign Ministers. So far seventy
countries have participated in the exhibit. Large signature pieces, such as a
chunk of the Great Wall of China and some remains of the Berlin Wall, are
featured in the exhibit. Alos included are amethysts from Uruguay, a plate from
Ecuador, and a brass plaque made from ammunition fragments after World War II
from Slovakia. Countries sent donations from their most cherished historical
sites, their proudest achievements, and poignant reminders of the price of peace
and fragility of human life.
