Pattnaik isn’t new to the sand castle game—he’s a professional who runs his own school dedicated to sand art. He recruited 30 students from his Sudarsan Sand Art Institute to assist on the four-day construction project that broke the record. The intricate castle stands more than 48 feet and 8 inches tall, and is inscribed with the words “World Peace.” The castle will be on display for two days.
