Sažetak
The organisation of Expos has a significant impact on the urban landscape. Although the organisation of Expos affects socio-economic indicators of the host cities and regions, the most notable changes are manifested in urban landscape components - infrastructure, suprastructure and ecostructure. In order for the changes to have a positive effect in space, it is necessary to comprehensively plan the event itself and all directly or indirectly related interventions, as well as to take a long-term view of the needs and capacities of the host city and region. The selection of a location for the Expo site is a very important step in planning, which should be in accordance with the long-term tendencies of expansion and development of the city. Location selection tendencies should primarily be geared towards the transformation of brownfield areas. The manner and intensity of the Expo site use in the post-exhibition period and its integration into the surrounding urban tissue should be foremost in the mind of the city and regional authorities. In the preparatory period of a major event, Expo cities and regions experience the modernisation and transformation of all subsystems of transport infrastructure. Numerous interventions are carried out in the construction of a new suprastructure and modernisation of the existing one for the temporary needs of the Expo and the permanent city functions. Ecostructure-related interventions are implemented in various forms within different programs and projects at the city and regional level. Local, regional and national authorities strive for and should continue to aspire to the conception and realisation of all Expo-related interventions, based on all aspects of sustainable development. It can be concluded that in a such way, the overall changes in the urban landscape of EXPO cities and regions would have positive effects for the inhabitants, and thus for mankind as a whole.
