Lucy Culpepper – Chengdu in southwest China has opened the doors to the New Century Global Center, the world’s largest building.
At 500 meters (1,640 feet) long, 400 meters (1,310 feet) wide and 100 meters (325 feet) high, it’s big enough to house three Pentagons or four Vatican Cities. Apart from just being a big building, it is also home to an artificial sun, a huge beach with waves, and 1,000 deluxe hotel suites for the expected flurry of tourists.
