The world's first "bone kite" made its debut recently in Shandong Province's Weifang, reputed as the "city of kites," reports Weifang Evening News.

Made of camel bones, the centipede-shaped kite is nearly 60 centimetres long and boasts exquisite design and craftsmanship.

It took Wang Jianxue more than six months to make the kite; and he plans to donate it to the Weifang Kite Museum.
