The construction of a controversial £116million life-size replica of the Titanic began in China yesterday.
A keel-laying ceremony and fireworks marked the start of work in the southwestern Sichuan province.

Much easier to do what Liverpool did... take a Victorian era warehouse, remodel it and simply call it the Titanic Hotel...:^)
In 1999 I was in Sag Harbor and bought a shirt emblazoned with;
“Titanic, 1912, Swim Team”.
When I would wear it some people would cringe to which I responded:
“Too Soon?”
Loved that T-Shirt and going back next year to get a few more...
Here is a better simulation of the Titanic. Updated a bit.
