You could say the Veryovkina Cave in Georgia is the biggest room in the world, if you define a room as a single continuous enclosure not impeded by any barriers or gates. It's referred to as the Mount Everest of caves and has six points of entry once thought to be unrelated. My best friends are cave hobbyists (my body isn't ready as they say, though to be fair neither are theirs for different reasons), seeing/capturing never before things all the time, and are probably evading the law that far below our overworld right now.
I'm not sure of the volume of that system, how to get it. But I wonder if man made strip mines like these would compare:
They go on for miles, are huge, and theoretically could go on for basically forever.
Impressively not even close. The Veryovkina Cave is the deepest cave but the largest is the Hang Son Doong cave in Vietnam and that's just under ten kilometers. Again a place shown to not be immune to my friends.
Interesting.

Makes me wish I could be into that stuff, might be interesting to see the life and art down there.
What's the single biggest constructed room? By humans, inside a building.
Easily the Boeing airplane factory.
LOL the link in that post goes to a crypto scam.
