After Xi'an, we flew to the Sichuan city, Chengdu to see a real Chinese Metropolis. In Chendu is the recently completed largest building in the world ringing in at 1.7 million square meters. The New Century Global Center is 100m tall with a footprint of 400m x 500m. The building is comprised of a 400,000sq meter mall, indoor water park and beach, hotels, an IMAX theater, university campus, office space, a Mediterranean Village, etc. Beyond the extreme architecture, Chengdu has some incredible, spicy Sichuan food! After only being here for 24 hours, it's time to go to Shanghai for the second-to-last leg of the trip.
