West Entrance, Triulza Side

The guide to Expo 2015 for design lovers. The Triulza Entrance is the other large access point to our temporary city. Those who come by train arrive here as well as those who come by Metro and miss the Fiorenza entrance. In front of you dozens and dozens of turnstiles, endless queues (if there were no queues, it would mean that the event was a flop, and so, long live the queues!). This is the entrance where you'll find the twenty-two giant statues by Dante Ferretti, [“The Guardians of Food”](http://www.expo2015.org/en/news/president-sergio-mattarella-inaugurates-the-works-of-dante-ferretti-at-expo-milano-2015), so appreciated by the huge population of Instagram. But before entering, we have a couple of places to stop off at... All the photos are by Beatrice Bianchetti and Anna Chiara Maggiolini.

Republic of Korea, Kimchi

The Korea Pavilion questions what the food of the future will be, the most healthy and planet-friendly. Strangely, the answer comes from the past: Kimchi, a traditional Korean food is the indisputable star of this pavilion and is presented in different forms. What is Kimchi? It's a term that refers to hundreds of different recipes, whose common factor is that the food is fermented in traditional jars, which are shown here in different versions (small, medium and gigantic) at the Korea Pavilion. These jars are the cornerstone of this preparation: they are used to store the food underground during the hottest months of the year, so that it can be brought out and eaten during the winter. Visitors can enter a giant jar and explore it. On taking a closer look, the whole pavilion resembles a giant jar! One curiosity: during the last SARS epidemic, the Asians believed that Kimchi could cure people from the virus (a belief not supported by any scientific proof). During that period, the consumption of Kimchi rose all over Asia by 40%.
