I have always liked the Kiev class aircraft carriers, so when I got a chance to have a wander around one I had to do it.

 

This is the Minsk, now tied up in Shenzhen, China as a theme part.

Sad to see such a nice ship decaying away and being used to sell handbags and other cheap rubbish

Didn't the Chinese buy a Soviet Aircraft carrier supposedly for scrap and then decide to rebuild it for the Navy?

 

They bought several scrapped carriers, I think 3 Kiev class, one they rebuilt and the HMAS Melbourne which they used for practicing carrier landings.

 

One of the Kiev class was a new hull never fitted out and they finished it, or may be a later version, sister ship of the solitary Russian current flagship
