TOKYO, Sept. 28 (Xinhua) -- The cumulative number of visitors to the 2025 World Exposition in Osaka City, western Japan, has exceeded 22 million, which is regarded as the break-even point, its organizer said Sunday.

Preliminary data shows that about 22,000,500 people visited the Osaka Expo as of Saturday since its April 13 opening, reaching the figure seen as the number needed to avoid a loss, the Japan Association for the 2025 World Exposition said.

More than 200,000 people have visited the Expo daily over the past two weeks. If the pace continues through the expo's final day on Oct. 13, the cumulative number of visitors will come to around 25 million, the association added.

The organizer expects a total of approximately 28.2 million people to visit the Osaka Expo before it ends next month. ■
