Have you ever heard of the world-famous ship Titanic?
Do you know the moving love story happened on the ship in the 1998 movie Titanic?
Titanic Museum Attraction Over a hundred years ago, the world-famous Titanic hit an iceberg and sank. It was the biggest and fastest ship of its time and thought to be unsinkable. Sadly, it wasn’t and more than 1,500 people on it lost their lives. Not long ago, I visited the Titanic Museum Attraction in a mountain city in East Tennessee, USA. It is a museum built in memory of the famous ship and the victims. In 1987, moviemaker John Joslyn and his team went into the deep sea to film the Titanic’s wreckage. They did a successful job for their movie. But Joslyn didn’t stop there. He knew that like him, many people were interested to know what those victims really experienced. He dreamed of a place where visitors could share the experience. In 2010, his dream came true with the building of the Titanic Museum Attraction. With over 400 exhibits in it, it is the world’s largest Titanic museum. The museum is housed in a Titanic-shaped ship. It is half the size of the real one. I walked on the ship under a starry sky and touched an “iceberg”. Then I put my hands into the cold water of the sea. It was the same temperature as the water on that dangerous night: -2.22℃. I had a better understanding of the feeling of those hopeless people that night. It was a meaningful visit! The museum gave me a chance to experience that exciting but sad day.
