Tara, the eight-meter-tall marionette, walks down a street in Shanghai Tuesday, April 22, 2008. Reportedly the tallest of its kind in the world, the puppet was shipped from South Korea to the city to help promote a textile and apparel show. She has been equipped with joints in her legs and arms and a pair of movable eyeballs. But it takes 10 people pulling ropes and a 10-meter high forklift to make her walk. She will perform at ShanghaiMart at Yan'an Road W. for three days.
