Harmony of the Seas may be the king of the ocean. The giant ship in the world is the new addition to the Royal Caribbean fleet. Everything about this vessel is done in grand proportions. At 362-meter long, this structure is larger than the Eiffel Tower in France.
Harmony of the Seas set sail this week for the first time from Southampton, England. It cost a mere $1 billion to build this floating city. It took 32 months to complete the 16-deck ship, which boasts the tallest slide at sea and the deepest pool at sea.
Harmony of the Seas can carry up to 7,000 passengers.
Twenty-three pools, 20 restaurants, a theatre, casino, hospital, and jail are some amenities found on the ship.
The cruise has seven neighborhoods like the Royal Promenade, Central Park, and Boardwalk.
Cabins with no windows come with virtual ones from a real-time camera from the ship.
The world’s tallest sea slide, the Ultimate Abyss, is ten stories of adrenalin rush.
Daredevils begin their ride in the Ultimate Abyss by entering through a purple anglerfish.
