Sounds big

A HUGE instrument was displayed at the Shanghai International Instrument Exhibition. The 4m-tall yu-kin, a four-stringed plucked instrument has a full-moon-shaped sound box. This special yu-kin was produced by the Shanghai No.1 Folk Instrument Factory in Minhang, and it is six times bigger than common ones. With its smooth body and beautiful decoration, it is honored as "the king of the instruments."
