  1. China is more clean than South Korea

  2. 贵州的地形全部是山，平地很少，所以为了利用稀少的平地，必须建高楼，确实密度太大，会比较压抑。贵州（大概40%人口是少数民族）在很长一段时间都是中国最穷省，现在发展的不错，我们外省人也很惊讶贵州的变化。

  3. 대만의 무역 흑자의 대부분은 중국 본토와의 무역에서 비롯되며, 이러한 흑자를 공제하면 나머지 세계와 무역 적자를 기록하고 있는 것입니다. 사실, 대만이 제공할 수 있는 것은 중국 본토에서 현지에서 만들 수 있으며, 대만 상품을 수입할 필요는 없지만 대만에 호의를 베풀기 위해 중국 본토는 대만에서 농산물을 수입하기도 합니다.

  4. 1. 深圳从来就不是旅游城市，是一个工作打拼城市，尤其以科技产业著称，其旅游资源很匮乏，你想要休闲，建议不要来深圳，这里节奏超快。 2. 我10年前就在深圳，当时深圳已经很先进繁华，但是不如现在这么干净，现在真的是一尘不染，鸟语花香，名副其实的花园城市，连新加坡都自叹不如。我在新加坡也生活过一段时间，规划方面感觉已经不如深圳了。过去十年，深圳的变化依然非常巨大，每年是以肉眼可见的那种速度而变化的。我听过在深圳的香港人说，“现在和疫情前的2019年比，深圳的变化都很显著，而我们香港则无变化，从肉眼可见的角度的话”。

  5. Because flat lands are scarce in Guizhou, a highly moutainous province, so to maximize the few flat lands, they must build highrise buildings in a dense manner.

  6.  @GodWindu  Shenzhen as a new city doesn't have any traditional legacy and almost all of the 17 million residents in the city are immigrants from other parts of China who want to make quick money there. Most of them are not long-term settlers but young people on the move all the time, your neighbours nextdoor will be different every year. If you wanna see culture, you can go to other Chinese cities with longer history. I'm from China and was living in Shenzhen in 2012-2014 and made a lot of friends who were also there from all parts of China, however today, most of us have left the city as we can't afford the houses there and don't wish to rent forever. 10 years ago, the average age of the population in Shenzhen was less than 30 years old. Nowadays it grows to 32.5 years old, still reflecting its young demographic. In other words, young folks flock in and contribute their youth to building the city into a hi-tech hub, upon being old, they leave and another new generation of young folks flock in. This is why the population in the city has always been predominantly young in the past 40 years.

  7. @ Each city in China is different, you can't generalize by one shoot. If it interests you, you can watch more driving-tour videos about different Chinese cities and towns and villages to get a fuller picture.🙂

  8.  @GodWindu  Well, this guy was filming on a bus traveling some fixed route, of course it's not what the city is like as a whole, you can watch more driving tour videos of Shenzhen, it will give you a different thought.

  9. @ OK, nobody says it must impress you, you can feel whatever you want to feel, who cares? :face-blue-smiling: https://youtu.be/XD88Y01H0RQ?si=BIfABceQ_52MZeza This is Xi'an, the 21th biggest city in China with very rich cultural heritage. What do you think?

  10.  @GodWindu  Since you are an European and European cities have few skycrapers but full of classical buildings built 200 years ago or earlier, you may have a different idea as to what a city should look like. In North America and Asia, cities tend to be newer and more modern-looking as there is a skycraper boom. There are actually four Chinese cities with strong European vibes because they had an episode of history interwined with European powers before, like Tianjin, Qingdao, Dalian and Shanghai. Tianjin https://youtu.be/sqpobMuiLgI?si=bWOS1VoMqDMDFxmz In terms of the European architectures, Qingdao has a strong German influence and Dalian Russian influence, Tianjin and Shanghai, British, French and American influences.

  11. @ " the lack book stores, bars, movie theaters, tatoo saloons, art galeries, restaurants, cafes and even small phone repair shops" There are all of these services in the streets, you may have not paid attention to. Xiong'an is in the birth phase and it's an enclave district of Beijing city, I believe Xiong'an's GDP will be calculated into Beijing city's, as a lot of the state-owned conglomerates in Beijing are relocating there. You don't have to worry.

  13. @ That building was the Bell Tower built in the early Ming dynasty in 1384, for the purpose of time reporting and news broadcast in the ancient time. The bells in the tower would be stricken a few times a day to tell the residents the rough time of the day. This was a common city facility in ancient China. In rural and urban towns alike back then, there was also another time-reporting mechanism where some professional time-reporters would stroll down the streets at midnight by beating a small gong or other instruments with a stick while holding lanterns and gently yelling "It's XX o'clock. Watch out fire in dry weather." "It's XX o'clock, shut your doors and windows to prevent buglary.".... intermitantly from 19:00 to 5:00 am the next morning. There were many ghost-encountering horror stories about people doing such a profession, which were of course fictitious. You may wonder whether it would disturb people from sleeping, in most cases, it wouldn't, as people were accustomed to those sounds and had a sense of security. Without the time-reporter's sounds at midnight, people would rather feel insecure.

  14. ​@ That building was a Bell Tower (built in 1385) for time-reporting purpose. There was also a govt-funded profession called the night watchman in ancient China, where they strolled down the streets at midnight holding a lantern and striking a small gong with a stick while reporting time by voice. There were certain supernatural/ho,rr,or tales involving night watchmen due to their job encounters, which were of course fictitious. You may wonder whether they would disturb people from sleeping, in most cases, they wouldn't because the volumes of sound were not too high and people rather felt secure after hearing them and would sleep better. After the clock/watch became a thing, the profession disappeared.

  21. 重慶と香港はどちらも山城で、山や谷の上に都市を建設しており、平地が少ないため、貴重な土地を最大限に活用するために高層ビルが必要でした。

  26. Chongqing is a city built on the moutains and valleys at the confluence of two rivers, so there are many different levels of land elevations and therefore bridges, walkstairs, road elevators, overpasses and even cable cars are everywhere. My 20th floor can be your ground floor next by. Gas stations can be at the rooftop. You won't see many bikers there as it will be a bad idea to ride a bike around, cars, buses, subways, motorcycles and ferry boats are the way to go.
