*International Pavilion is a newly opened exhibition area since 2007 for international sellers to exhibit non-made-in-china goods to all fair visitors

A very important change in October 2008 with the Canton Fair venue is that all the fairs will be exhibited at Pazhou Complex only, Liuhua Complex(Old fair) will no longer in use. This also mean 5-stars hotels near Liuhua Complex like Dongfang Hotel, China Hotel, White Swan Hotel and Asia International Hotel will be inconvenient and abandoned due to location disadvantage!
