China Weaves World's Largest Tapestry
A tapestry woven in north China's Tianjin Municipality has recently been included into the Guinness Book of Records as the largest tapestry in the world.
The tapestry depicts nine dragons roaming among clouds and eight Chinese characters meaning "national unity" in a blue and green pattern, and is 2,000 cm wide and 110 cm high.
Nearly 100 weavers, all expert handicraft artisans, spent one month creating the tapestry.
