The drum, which is 6.68 meters in diameter, 2.86 meters tall and weighs 50 tons, was designed by a local artist named Wei Qichu who continues the Zhuang people’s traditional bronze drum casting techniques. It took seven months for 30 workers to make the drum, which is said to be the world’s largest.[Photo: VCG]
