An iconic giant floating Hong Kong restaurant has capsized in the South China Sea,  less than one week after it was towed away from the city, its parent company said Monday. 

Aberdeen Restaurant Enterprises Ltd. said  the Jumbo Floating Restaurant encountered “adverse conditions” as it was passing the Xisha Islands, also known as the Paracel Islands. According to a statement , water entered the 260-foot-long vessel and it began to tip Saturday.

The company said no one was injured, but that efforts to save the vessel failed. It eventually capsized on Sunday. 

The company said it was “very saddened by this accident,” adding the water’s depth” made it difficult to save.

“The company is now getting further details of the accident from the towing company,” the statement read. “Due to the impact of the current situation, Jumbo Kingdom will suspend its services,” was posted on Aberdeen Restaurant Enterprises Ltd. webpage Monday.
