Joliet residents plan trips to the 1958 Brussels World's Fair after visiting fair facilities and noting highlights of Belgium pavilions and attractions. The writer offers an on-site perspective from inspections and recommendations for travelers.
In about three weeks the first postwar World’s Fair will open on a 500 acre site in Brussels Meysel Park. The Brussels Universal and International Exhibition of 1958 is billed as one of the most elaborate expositions to date with extensive exhibits and international participation.
The 1958 Brussels exposition presents a monumental cultural clash between East and West and marks a symbol of global understanding. Belgium spends 800 million on grounds and city beautification as 320 foot Atomium dominates Heysel Park with nine steel atoms connected by transit corridors.
The Belgian government creates Logexpo a dedicated agency to handle visitor accommodation during the six month Brussels World Fair. Free services cover planning and bookings and travelers are urged to contact LOGEXPO at 35 rue Belliard Brussels or via travel agents for details.
