Dubbed as the world’s largest building (or the largest standalone structure by floorspace, to be precise), the New Century Global Centre in Chengdu, China, has opened its doors to public last month. Photos by 郭红元@Baidu [Cn]…
With 1,700,000 square metres of floorspace, the building consists of a large shopping area, and also offices, conference hall, two hotels, entertainment facilities, ice skating rink, a Mediterranean village, and a theme park with an artificial beach.
Malaysians are used to large malls (400,000+ m²), although dwarfed by comparison it’s nothing extraordinary, just bigger. I wonder if others would be excited, or perhaps intimated by these mega-structures though.
