The finishing touches are being made to a new floating restaurant at Aberdeen. The exterior design has been taken from the famous Marble Boat in the Summer Palace in Peking.
The completion of the Sea Palace will bring the number of floating restaurants to three. The others are the YuLai Tai which is about 6 years old (1952?) and the Tai Pak which has been in Aberdeen for 4 years (1954?)
The original Sea Palace was replaced circa 1962 by a larger structure and the original was towed to Macau to become the first iteration of the floating Macau Casino Palace.
