Posted on 08. Aug, 2007 by Alicia in General
Before I read this, I never really know about this at all. Now that I came across this article, I am really interested to know which 10 malls would be the world’s largest shopping mall in the world.
Read on.
10 shopping malls rank as the world’s largest, based on the amount of “Gross Leasable Area” - the number of square feet the property has for revenue-generating activities like retail, dining and amusements. Asia is home to eight of the world’s 10 largest malls, six of which were built in the last three years. Rankings are based on statistics from Eastern Connecticut State University, which compliles data from mall management companies.

This is one ice bar at Russia. Despite the cold weather at Northern Russia, they build this ice bar made entirely from ice! The entrance fee is $12. Go experience it!

Japan’s Capsule Hotel
Posted on 09. Jul, 2007 by Alicia in General
What is Capsule Hotel?
A capsule hotel (カプセルホテル, kapuseru hoteru?) is a hotel system of extremely dense occupancy. Guest space is reduced in size to a modular plastic or fibreglass block roughly 2 m by 1 m by 1.25 m, providing room to sleep and little more, although facilities usually include a television and other electronic entertainment. These capsules are then grouped and stacked, two units high. Luggage is usually stored in a locker away from the capsule. Privacy is maintained by a curtain at the open end of the capsule but noise pollution can be high. Washing facilities are communal and there are often restaurants, or at least vending machines, and other entertainment facilities.

I think this is quite a good concept for visitors who has a budget especially for backpacker who want to save cost and budget living. Some said it looks very much like a coffin, some said it looks like space cabin. Whatever it is, this is definitely unique.
