China will spend 5 billion yuan (some 610 million US dollars) to set up the world's biggest military theme park in Tianjin, a municipality close to Beijing.
The 7-square-kilometer park will have such facilities as a man-made sand beach and a 3.3 million-square-meter expanse of water.
A former Soviet Union aircraft carrier, the Kiev, will become its main attraction. Measuring 274 meters long, 52 meters wide, 51 meters tall and weighing 24,000 tons, the Kiev was once regarded by western countries as "a lion on the sea".
Over one million tourists have visited the vessel since it came to China last year, with a record 10,000 visitors on a single day.
A range of weapons used by air, land and marine forces will also be on display, sources said.
