World's Largest Building Opens in Chengdu, China [Photos]
The world's largest building has opened in China capable of fitting 20 Sydney Opera Houses or raher three Pentagons - inside.
The New Century Global Center in Chengdu, Sichuan province, is a staggering 19million sq.ft. and contains shopping centres, a Mediterranean village, a water park, an ice-skating rink, and multiple hotels.
However, visitors to the glass panelled building need not worry about the weather as the giant complex will have its own artificial sun.
‘This is an ocean city built by man,’ Chinese guide Liu Xun told AFP.
He added that the artificial sun built inside the building will provide light and heat 24 hours a day for shoppers exploring the around 400,000 sq. metres of boutiques and stores.
The building sits directly opposite the Chengdu Contemporary Arts Centre, designed by British-Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid, at the heart of a booming area of Chengdu.
