   IKEA HK 50 years
   
   If you're in HK some time 2025-03-22--05-12, you can go to Tai Kwun near the long escalator in Central, and experience a giant Frakta blue bag, a giant Blåhaj plush shark, take pictures of yourself as part of an IKEA catalog front cover, or generally learn about 50 years of IKEA in Hong Kong.

     The world's six largest IKEA stores are:

     Pasay, Metro Manila, Philippines: 65,000 m2 (699,654.2 sq ft)
     Gwangmyeong, Gyeonggi, South Korea: 57,100 m2 (614,619.3 sq ft)
     Stockholm (Kungens Kurva), Sweden: 55,200 m2 (594,167.9 sq ft)
     [ . . . ]

     Huh. I thought the "new" one in Erikslund, Västerås, Sweden was the biggest, but it's not even in the top 6. Maybe it was, and these are all even newer.

     @loke Looks like SG had 45 years of IKEA two years ago:

     So you'll have your own 50 years' exhibition soon enough. 😊

     If I do make the pilgrimage there, I'll share some pics. 😊
