11.Sep.2009 Ikea bests malls and clubs as #1 hang out for Chinese hipsters.

ikea-china_48853615      A recent article in the LA Times caught our eye online the other day that claims that the Ikea store in Beijing, China is one of the top hangouts for Chinese hipsters, and families alike.  Locals consider it the best place to grab a bite to eat, kick up your feet and read a book, or take a nap.  In fact, people even curl up under the blankets and sleep for hours on end.   Supposedly, it is also one of the only major commercial stores in China where you can take a picture inside without getting bullied by the security guards.  We’re not quite sure why you would want to take pictures inside of Ikea, but hey… whatever floats your boat.  We’ve added the rest of the pictures below…
