0

After more than a century of sinking deep in the Atlantic Ocean, the legendary Titanic will be ‘reborn’ with another version at a theme park in Sichuan province, China.

China’s Titanic ship project was started in November 2016 with the aim of creating the most similar version of the real Titanic from design to food menu.

More than 100 workers participated and 23,000 tons of steel were used to complete this simulation ship.

Everything from the dining room to the cabin to the door handles is very luxurious, in the style of the original ship.
