SHANGHAI - The Expo Garden has seen a sharp decrease in the number of visitors this week, but organizers said the drop is temporary and visitors would increase again with the National Day holiday around the corner.
More than 223,000 visitors entered the Expo Garden on Sept 2. It was the third day that the number of visitors hovered around 200,000. The high on Aug 21 reached more than 560,000 visitors.
According to Expo organizers, the drop in group visitors and the start of a new semester led to a dramatic decrease in visitors during the first few days of the week.
