A full-size Titanic replica takes shape along a reservoir in a rural area in Suining, Sichuan province, May 9, 2017. Like the real cruise liner, which sank in 1912 and was made famous by a 1997 film, the replica will be 269 meters long and 28 meters wide. It will include all the features of the original one: from banquet hall, theater to luxury first-class cabin and swimming pool, but won’t sail. The project, jointly launched by teams from US and China, got under way at the end of last year, and aims to make the ship a tourist attraction. [Photo/VCG]
