    Khan Shatyry ("Royal Marquee") is a giant transparent tent in Astana, the capital city of Kazakhstan.

    The architectural project was unveiled by the President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev on 9 December 2006.  

    The 150m-high (500 ft) tent has a 200m elliptical base covering 140,000 square meters.[1] Underneath the tent, an area larger than 10 football stadiums, will be an urban-scale internal park, shopping and entertainment venue with squares and cobbled streets, a boating river, shopping centre, minigolf and indoor beach resort.

    Her name is Kang Eunju. She belongs to Shin Hung Kindergarten in Hamhung City in North Korea. Viewer comment: "Perhaps she was trained in the Suzuki method of music? Suzuki relies on the principle that music is taught like language is taught, through cultural and social immersion. The child plays guitar beautifully, because it is as natural to her as speaking her native Language."
