All aboard! 🚢 China's second domestically built large cruise ship is almost ready to set sail, and it's bigger and greener than ever! After just over three months of assembly, this giant vessel is now 80% complete, with its massive three-layer platform fully formed.
Since it entered the dock in April, an incredible 28 sections and 26 subsections have been pieced together like a giant puzzle 🧩. Now, the team is hard at work on welding and installing all the cool equipment that'll make your voyage unforgettable.
So, what's new with this ship? Well, compared to its older sibling, this one is a real upgrade. It's got a gross tonnage of 141,900 tonnes—that's 6,400 tonnes more muscle! 💪 It's also longer, stretching 341 meters (that's an extra 17.4 meters). More space means more fun, right? And with 2,144 cabins (19 more than before), there's room for all your friends!
But it's not just about size. This ship is eco-friendly too! 🌍 It comes equipped with two sets of desulfurization systems and five advanced environmental protection systems. So you can cruise the seas knowing you're doing your bit for the planet.
Get ready, adventure awaits! 🌊
