This is a British ocean liner that experienced World War II. It is said that there are legends of ghosts on the ship. Its appearance is very similar to the famous Titanic. It has now become a national historical landmark. Visitors can stroll through this huge ship launched in 1934 and explore its gorgeous decoration and retro style. The historical exhibition area on the ship shows the glorious years of the Queen Mary, including classic areas such as the captain's room and the banquet hall, making visitors feel as if they have traveled back to that elegant era. In addition, the Queen Mary also has interactive experience projects such as ghost tours and escape rooms, bringing visitors a mysterious and exciting adventure. At night, visitors can also enjoy a romantic dinner on the ship, or look up at the stars on the deck and feel a different maritime style.
