History - Trees inside the Crystal Palace - Expo 1851 London


As we saw previously, flowers, plants were always part of World Expos... even in the first, held in London in 1851, the famous "Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of all Nations".

Of course, outside the Crystal Palace... but also inside. A full size elm tree of the park was enclosed within the central exhibition hall near the 27-foot (8 m) tall Crystal Fountain.
