  • its just a little overcast.. I do business into Shanghai many times each month and it doest look like this all the time... its just fog lol!!!

  • phoenix is the worst i've seen...and i live there. plus these rocket scientists put up a nuclear plant 45 miles due west of the valley.(typically, the wind flows west to east in the region. intelligent.

  • Sad.

  • all Asian skyscraper cities are hideous they lack character and smell of shit.

  • Every cities have fogs sometimes, even the city of honolulu in the beautiful paradise of hawaii have fogs.

  • China also has the ugliest people on Earth. Never seen a pretty chinese before. If you've seen one most probably she had plastic surgery.

  • Its NOT polluted, its fog you idiot! Shanghai is a beautiful city, your just jealous.

  • it is obviously fog. get a life.

  • Shanghai is one of the least polluted cities in China. And it is alot prettier than other chinese cities like Beijing or Tianjin.. Gosh every city has smog and this looks more like fog..

  • Linfen is the most polluated

  • I guess these fog were probably came from other city in China. I been to Shanghai and the air was breathable than other polluted city.

  • I DONT KNOW WHY PEOPLE LIKE U OL CRITISIZE SHANGHAI,,,ACTUALY ITS FAR BETTER THEN THE WESTERN CITIES,,,,,U SHOULD GIVE RESPECT WHO R HEADING TO BE POWER,,,,DONT BE JEALOUS,,,,,,,,,,,,

  • This Video is BULLSHITT !!! you know nothing about SH! I life in China since 3 years and I'm in China since long time over 2years BeiJing and TangShan and 1,5 years SH.... big industry-city's in China are polluted.the air in Beijing was full of smog .. but If you go to SH you will see one of the cleanest city's in China!!!! No industry, it is located next to the sea... wind and fresh air every day I never saw Smog here!!! SH is in a tropical region. we have 80-90% air humidity thats FOG!!

  • it's fog. why do you think shanghai is so polluted?? it's not! DUH!

  • This video starts out with some very nice looking scenery, the riverside greenery and the river itself and then the intricate and interesting cityscape... Shanghai is not an ugly city but a very beautiful and modern city. In fact, much of this video makes me wish I could visit Shanghai and its people someday. All cities have problems they need to address. Maybe pollution is a real concern here, but we will invent new ways to clean our skies and waterways and make city life better for everyone.

  • Every country has foggy days,this is not pollution,it is just jealous your city is not as good as shanghai.Google shanghai ,one of the cleanest and best cities in the world.

  • awww the fresh air polution!!! oh yeah China is for me uh-hu!!! ouch!

  • Linfen is most polluted in China. Nowhere near Shanghai. All manufacturing was moved out of Shanghai. Los Angeles is #2 as far as global percentages, considering land mass & population America is far worse. Air particulates goes to Cairo Egypt & Delhi India. Linfen is only on the list because of both water & air pollution & it depends on who's doing the list. Americans fail to include any American cities. Shanghai is nowhere to be found in top 10 that includes NYC, Pittsburgh, Dallas & LA!

  • chenge is more polluted, people have to wear masks!

  • true, china is so friggin polluted

  • @ilovecorea1986 Actually Hong Kong is. :(

  • its not all fog pics... theres some with smog.

  • What is your point, why would you post this. Is your life so lame you have to shit on someone. I have met the most sincere people oin my life in China and far better than the years I spent in my home country. Get a life and go back to you perfect world you fuck.

  • The same in Mexico City

  • wanna see pollution?? Go to Beijing. Shanghai is as beautiful a city as I have ever visited

  • You know who's ugly? You are.

  • Frauds -> when there is nothing left to criticize about china anymore, you will then be forced to openly make the argument that you now embellish under broad hypocritical accusations, i.e., forced to openly admit that you don't like china because your government and "free, on the paper not state-ran" media educated you that way

  • yes, thank goodness for the criticism, btw this is a perfect example of how free speech will catapult china to bring Gods' world onto Earth, wait who's side am i on, i'm Against ur ever evolving definition of free speech inconsistently applied whenever it pleases the united states

  • @opeeum69 We dond't inconsistently apply free speech in the US you fucking shit it's against the US constitution if something like that were to ever happen. So yeh keep moaning about us bitch but u ain't getting anywhere.

  • Its not fog.Its smog ppl.Grow up

  • L.A. is like this all the damn time

  • ^_^ these conments is funny

  • yes it is seriously polluted, then why are you still there, go back to your country!

  • It isnt ugly and their is no smug on the video

  • such an idiot, waste my fucking time, dont u know what fog is? stupid dump ass

  • YES china is polluted,cos it's the largest factory for this damn world.

  • jealous is not a cure for you

  • Its fog, you fag

  • I would like to congratulate gtg559b, who is the uploader of this video,and also an other video,the "Shanghai - the most beutiful city of

    the world".This two title first look contradict each other,but I think every city in the world have minimum two FACE, a good and a bad.I living in a very beautiful City in Europe, but sometimes I hate my City, but sometimes when i'm down i just look around and discovering how beauty is the place,where I living.Ev'rybody feel this, isn't?

  • I agree with the title

  • Is it just foggy or Polluted? It is not news the south China is foggy and humid since ancient time, that is why there are lots of rice fields.

  • Your title is quite misleading. Have you visited my hometown, London?

  • london used to be seriously polluted too so are the major cities in the US such as chicago

    China will clean up and actually China is investing huge amounts of money in clean energy and is already taking the lead in clean energy sector

  • I have never been in China before. But I want to go there in my next vacation for 2 weeks. I heard that the city o Shanghai is polluted and crowded. I think the city planning needs to do something about the rapid growth of the city. ?They need to do more work in the traffic. I want to eat the Shanghai bun, Shanghai noodle and all the Shanghai street food.

    Udon in Canada

  • jealousy is a curse

  • Shanghai is a very nice city and the waterfront skyline is amazing

  • Living on a small village for example in Switzerland,nearby the Urmersee, in Isenthal - you feel yourself closer to heaven internally. After one day in Isenthal, you need just one day in Shanghai - you will be dead man, even you breathing. The simplicity and purity is the real desire of all men, but the people just build Hells and didn't know what they really want.

  • @jaabko

    everybody has a different definition of heaven, a city dweller may not want to change their way of life with a villager.

    Cities are more dynamic suitable for the young, countries are more better for olds.

  • Shanghai isn't a Clean, neat and enviromental city. THAT"S FOR SURE. But the night view of Shanghai is Truely Amazing! You woudn't see that i many countries.

  • looks more like fog than smog

  • Daaaaaamn!

    I Remember When I Was In The 2008 Olympics Beijing, There Was A Lot Of Dust Everywhere

  • dude, there are over 200 000 eyewear stores in Shanghai, ever thought of visiting one and getting ur eyes fixed?

  • China is in their industrial revolution right now...This is what big U.S. cities looked like when they we're built.

  • The city looks super evil.

  • Every big city is polluted! Shanghai is beautiful city!

  • Actually, in CHina, there are some foggy days,,,,hehe, 

  • @huijinhuang2008

    I lived there for a couple years, and that was always the explanation... fog! Same with Hunan...foggy!

  • I do believe much of it was fog, especially in Shanghai. Not so much in Hunan.

  • I do believe much of it was fog, especially in Shanghai. Not so much in Hunan.

    And Shanghai is far from being the ugliest city in the world. You must have been on the tail end of a trip to south east asia. Shanghai is not all smiles, it's a functioning, busy city. The locals don't have time to welcome you, as if you were the first foreigner to come to town.

  • OOO, i stayed in shanghai for shottime, that is the one of the most beautiful city in the world..Frankly speaking,,,,

  • wow! in ur other video u say Shanghai is the most beautiful city in the world,, and now u say tis????????? so wat u wan to tell man??

  • I travel back and forth between my homes in both Shanghai and U.S. Here is my fair judgement of pollution in Shanghai: the air and water quality in Shanghai is fair to good but definately not as good as U.S. cities, you will see less days with blue sky and streets are clean with no garbages but a little dusty in some areas. Shanghai is by no means dirty and polluted, and is far more cleaner than Indian cities such as Mumbai (one American co-worker in Shanghai who has been to India told me).

  • lol at this hate video

    complete fail. just jealous of shanghai and what china will be in 10 years

    probably a mcdonalds eating obese yank owns this vid

  • I think cities like Kabul, Karachi, Mumbai etc. are uglier and dirtier. But I do worry about Shanghai's pollution

  • hey come on. just change the way u percieve this world. dont b narrow minded. open ur eyes. its china and its shanghai. one of the finest and greatest cities of the world. this city and country is always in my heart. its me 4m pakistan

  • i wen to shanghai so many times,i think it's beautiful city in the world! if you think ugliest in the world why you don't stay in your hometown enjoy your village life when you went to there ???

  • i went to shanghai so many time, i think it's beautiful city in the world you are wrong....maybe somthing in your mind? if not why you want to there? better stay in your hometown!!!!

  • shanghai is a top city very nice

  • To: gtg449b

    Guess that's God's plan to punish an asshole like you to go on a day with heavy fog and smog. Looking at your replies to others, you certainly deserve it cos you are such a narrow-minded idiot with no basic physics knowledge.

  • Shiryuuclone. I have lived in Shanghai for nearly a year. Not once could I NOT look directly at the sun. The smog was there everyday. In winter. No rain for say 3-4 days. Cold as. Pollution exactly the same. Summer hot and humid. pollution the same The water of the Huang pu and all the connected canals is a milky gray. The streets are a mess. Its weird how when they build they just leave all the unwanted materials/rubbish everywhere. but you get used to it.

  • If you are going to complain about pollution don't live in a city.

  • the most ugliest and dirty and polluted city would be L.A.

  • dude...I was born in shanghai and if it was that polluted then why would a be as healthy as ever? I only missed school for 2 days this year because a bug bit me and my eye swell up( has nothing to do with china) shanghai is one of the most beautiful place on earth and it will stay as beautiful without u idiots who are jealous that china is better ruining it by saying fog is pollution. The reason why its crowded in shanghai is because ur in the city... Shanghai is basically fully constructed >.>

  • That's fog in pretty much the entire video. What a 'tard, haha!

  • oh, wow, you must hate China A LOT to say something like this ...

  • i dont get it. the same user puts up a video saying its the most beautiful city, but also saying its the ugliest.

  • Have you ever been in Milan, Rome, Manhattan?? Shanghai is much cleaner. Streets, metro stations and trains are extremely clean compared to New York subway... I'm from Italy and I wish one day italian cities will be as clean as Shanghai. In my view the real problem of Shanghai is traffic and the way chinese people drive....

  • Comment removed

  • stupid americans fuck off

  • Quite the opposite, it feels so earthly. This is called humidity, looks a lot like here in the west coast of CA. But it is a big city after all, I would be in shock if there's absolutely no air pollution.

  • while some footage might be misleading it is still true that shanghai is a dirthole, been there and i should of brought a mask with me as in some places you truly cant see beyond a couple of meters range and you have a tough time breathing, those who state different things are probably calling shanghai clean as compared to linfen :D or they are just on the communist central party`s payroll :D

  • well, you can't expect the coutryside's view from Shanghai. Shanghai is a metropolis and it is much better than some other American's cities, as the Chinese government is creating many projects against the pollution

  • Never been to Shanghai, but NYC seems pretty filth ridden to me. Rats outnumber the people 100000 to 1 and the water is pure sewage that would kill a human in 5 seconds. They really need to clean some of these American cities, we need to start adopting alternate forms of energy and stop polluting the planet while were at it.

  • Its true i went there several years ago and i couldn't even see the sky. You will smell something if you go there. Also water is kinda polluted, it has much cleaning stuff in it you feel when you take a shower. I expected so many good thing but i really disappointed about Shanghai and China. Just be careful because you may get some allergy or some disease from there. Its really polluted. Beijing is really stinky LOL. You should wear a mask. Sorry Chinese people but its true.

  • hey stupid its a big city assholl with probably milions of people what can we expect

  • shanghai is a lovely city, polluted, dont think so, rather live there than in ireland to be honest, propaganda bullshit from the yanks again

  • dude ......dont be a dick putting down cities......

  • I've read that if you're an overseas Chinese and if you go to Shanghai, they'll all look at you like sh*t. But try and speak to them in ENGLISH and all of a sudden their attitude towards you will change magically; now they'll all be eager to talk to you and learn English from you.

  • pollution is what keep the country rich

  • I have been to Shanghai and its one of the most exciting city in China and Asia. I Would definitely revisit Shanghai!

  • @hxu036 where u from? china?

  • This is a very old version of Shanghai.Shanghai changes too much every year.Now Shanghai is with 492m SWFC skyscraper and other beautiful things.

  • Whoever made this video must be from the US. I just came back from Shanghai, and it's perhaps the most beautiful city I've been to, & I've been to all over the United States and Canada, as well as Europe..so yes, I think I have enough points of reference... About the pollution, all big cities have it. At least Shanghai doesn't have ugly graffiti like in L.A. or trash on the streets like in New York. Classifying it as the ugliest city just shows how much arogance this yank has...

  • mother fuck, sucker!

  • what's your point? what i see is Shanghai is beautiful with a cloudy weather

  • that is Terrible :O

  • fking bullsht

  • Fog true beauty of Shanghai

  • polluted...i mean no shit...............but the ugliest?? i think u should stop wearing anti-everything about china glasses

  • Even on this video called 'the ugliest' city it still looks pretty, despite the pollution (which doesnt seem as bad as you make out)

  • What if they keep developing this fast not caring about pollution and the chinese start to get really sick and die all over china? Or mutated, brain damage, tiny head syndrome.

  • @zmanthao Hey! That's exactly what has already happened all over US :) The "brain damage" and "tiny head syndrome" at least. Lucky for you China is the country that spends most money in the world on new renewable energy sources and sustainability.

  • No, we don't have the tiny head syndrome yet, but we have the 300 lbs woman everywhere, unstoppable too.

  • Yes I can see that from the video above, they are making great progress.

  • god u cant even see blue skys. the city is grey, its only pretty at night

  • i guess this guy never learned the meaning of the word "Fog"

  • @xfeng607

    I agree with you. :)

  • and so dirty???? wtf ur dirty ass

  • shanghai rocks

  • Use your brain b4 making commnets, go to shanghai at june then you know lar.

  • This is winter okay, lot of fog one lar doof.

  • Shanghai is the best.

  • Progress has growing pains, if you want progress it comes with a price. China has embraced them and not look back. Hats off to China..I'm from the US, ant that's the way you make progress a strong governent that has the balls to manage capitalism.

  • Your video is awesome. Now I am even happier about moving to Shanghai...Thanks for posting!

  • I agree with bayonet2... shanghai does has its pollution.... why , because the world demands low cost products.... but Shanghai rocks , its a fantastic city, one of the WORLDS GREATEST....and im an anglo saxon !!

  • you idiot call a morning fog pollution? I m from Shanghai now I am living in London i give u my word that the Thames is not better than the Huangpu River in terms of quality. While for the air pollution, it might be less clean than London but it is no way to be heavily polluted. There is no Shanghai on the list of ten worst polluted cities around world made by the environmental pressure group. It is even better than manchester.

  • Ur camera is dirty thats why u make EVERY video clip dirty.Clean the screen man and dont be such jealous..

  • Soooo fucking true... and neither is it a safe city. Take Hong Kong for example they are at least working on the ecological factor.

  • Well at night ShangHai is actually really beautiful o.o

  • its polluted but hits skyline is best

  • what's the problem? i like pollution ... :)

  • that's probably fog

  • London was also the ugliest and most polluted city of the world when the western countries were taking advantage of China. This is how human society evolves, no one should be blamed!

  • Lol wats with saying its beautiful one minute than ugly the next? Anywayz, i liked the other one better because you were telling the truth then xo

  • my familys from shanghai +-+ i think its beautiful. and the fact that yu have another video called "Shanghai, China -- the Most Beautiful City in the World" is really funni

  • you sound like a picky cunt. everyone i know loves the city. including me whos lived there.

  • Dude it says incredibly dirty water but the original color of the yangtze river is like that. Thats why its called yellow river.

  • yangtze river is called long river, yellow river is in northern China. right?

  • I'm from the Philippines as well and have lived in shanghai for almost 5 years. It think its a beautiful world class city and the safest I've ever been.They have the best architectural character and architecture types the world has to offer.Public Transportation is very convenient. I have heard of some idiotic comments that shanghai is polluted, dirty,ugly and all that but I beg to disagree. I think the chinese govt. is doing a great job with Shanghai.

  • Hmmm shocked by the title of this vid. I think Shanghai is a very nice city and the waterfront skyline is amazing. YOu have to understand China is still under the first trimester of their Industrial revolution, therefore there is lots of pollution. England Germany and the US was much of the same way in the late 1800's with pollution from coal burning factories. This will all change soon. China is already has the world's largest solar power system and wind farms.

  • what is the song??? it is so beautiful!!

  • Comment removed

  • ur wrong, idiot!

    hiv CAPITAL is LA,USA and Sydney, Australia.

  • You are just saying that because you have HIV

  • @sjcns actually hiv is mostly in africa u dumb ass, hiv is everywhere in the world but in from africa dumb shit

  • u blocked ur fucking mind!

    i was studying pathology, my info were from the lecture, helding by australian lecturer.

    honestly i don't give a shit of shanghai, i was just simply saying u were wrong abt the HIV crap.

    keep saying whatever u wanna say, we all have the freedom of the speech. if insulting shanghai could make u have a better life, go for it~~

  • I think you need to check your facts AND your HIV status

  • yo wtf shanghai is the best city ever!!

  • It is smog. I was there and could not understand till I leaved the town and saw the huge industry around it.

  • i can definitely tell between pollution, dust storm and mist. and that kiddies is mist.

  • Im from the Republic of the Philippines and i went to Shanghai last summer for a short 2 week vacation and with the short span of time that i stayed there i can say that this is one of the most beautiful and cleanest city in the World compare to other cities and they have lots of beautiful parks. With the 18 million pop they can still maintain a clean environment. :)

  • its called fog. Your just jealous because shanghai is so modern. I'm from shanghai btw. xD

  • WRONG! Shanghai is one of the best cities in the world! I lived there for three years and it was the best three years of my life. AND im from New Zealand which is one of the most pollution free places in the world. Half of the time it isn't smoggy like this anyway, I have seen many a day when there is no smog at all, and i could see the supertowers at the bund all the way from my apartment way west of hongqiao airport

  • It's not as bad as Atlanta, that place is a shit hole.

  • My family come from here. It's not perfect, close though. And I'll be there next year!

  • thats discusting

  • i dont know what city your from but obviously you never seen rainy days before ?

  • or for that matter fog. You obviously dont understand that shanghai rains on avg once every two days. Its extremely humid and with humidity comes yellow haze which happens once every year usually during summer july time. Also very cloudy. Its not pollution. Polution is like beijing becasue its a steelworks city and actually has production, shanghai is a commercial financial city.

  • your the only one thats hating, don't like shanghai don't fucking go.... lol nobody would miss you there.

  • @gtg559b what a dumbass

  • @gtg559b mane, that is soooo sad,,, and pooor world? we going destroy ,

  • @shiryuuclone thANX u i agree

  • Shanghai is the nicest and most beautiful city i've ever been to, and i'm from Canada which has some nice cities. It's much nicer than Tokyo too (which i've also been to), so much nice modern architecture and so many people. Even this video makes it look incredible! Also, that is fog not smog!

  • a lot of that was just as bad as LA......

  • lol you probably picked the worst days and the worst angles to film this, you can make new york look polluted as well if you pick your spots. also when did you go? you do know that the west of china is desert and that winds can blow the sand towards shanghai making it extremely foggy...and also why all this hate on china? dang.

  • No, it really is the Ugliest, Ugliest city in the whole world. People are advised to stay home all day so they don't die from breathing in all the polluted air...

  • @gtg559b with all due respect and no offence......are you idiot?........i jst can't figure out the reason why u r saying this?......even though i know you are insane.....

  • @gtg559b dude u say its beautiful in one of Ur videos and now u say its ugly? WTF DUDE

  • id have an asthma attack just by looking at the air wow

  • whats the name of this song?

  • mandalay beautiful

  • Thank you

  • Um, Shanghai has some ugly buildings but it also has a lot of beautiful modern and 18th/early 19th century architecture. Plus, it may be polluted but its nothing compared to Beijing, most of China's industrial cities or other cities in Asia like Mumbai.

  • well. i do see shanghai is a polluted city some days of a year. but I have to disagree the ugliness of that city. I lived and worked there before. It's not a bad city at all.

  • whats the song called?!

  • ok, I don't get it, first u post this video, and then you post a vid saying Shanghai is the most beatiful city in the world, what's with u??

  • okay well you, my friend have a far different opinion than me

    you see, shanghai is working diligently to work on their pollution issues. While they are a quite successful country, they have many things to work on. give it time ok? and i personally believe that shanghai is a gorgeous city with abstract and unbelievable architecture, and yeah, i HAVE been there. Anyways, it was one of the most amazing places i have ever been so i had to comment on this. PEOPLE GO VISIT ITS GREAT AND YOU LEARN ALOT
