A film screen in South China's Guangdong Province on Wednesday earned its place in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest.

The screen in the Chime-long Ocean Kingdom in the city of Zhuhai was certificated by Rowan Simons, president of Guinness Worlds Records in China.

Eighty-eight meters long and 18 meters high, it can offer 4K resolution images, about four times that of normal screens, with the help of 12 projectors.
