The Romandisea Titanic is a partially-built full-scale replica of the RMS Titanic, that is located in landlocked Sichuan province, China. The project was first reported in October 2013 and formally launched in January 2014. The ship was to be the same size as the original Olympic-class ocean liner Titanic. The replica vessel was anticipated to be the centerpiece of the Romandisea resort and would have included overnight hotel accommodations. It was to be permanently docked in a reservoir on the Qijiang River, a tributary of the Fu River, at coordinates 30°37′42″N 105°13′19″E / 30.6282°N 105.2220°E in Sichuan's rural Daying County.
