China Fast Growth Cities Skyscrapers Pollution

[DQFXPRESS]

NO WONDER CHINA USES NEARLY HALF OF THE WORLD'S CEMENTS.

Yes China has building codes and fire sprinklers in the tall buildings. However, the farther you go away from the big cities, the regulations are much more relaxed.

[websuspect]

Does china have any building codes? Do these buildings have fire sprinklers?

amazing sight. It looks very futuristic...all of it.

Even difficult to breath in such a high place where photochemical smogs are around.

A double-floor flat on the top of the apartment in Hong Kong will easily cost you 5mn, instead of this 1mn as told in the video. Hong Kong has 90% of its area covered with mountains, therefore its building area is actually less than 10% of that in Shenzhen. However its population is not much less.

every one of these buildings will have an extremely busy Macdonald's at the bottom of it...I bet Hong Kong sells more Big Macs per day than NYC.

The Greater Pearl River Delta, Is the Worlds greatest-ever Megalopolis ...in an area around the size of London or Paris, but only 75percent of LA live (at least) 45million people, in a now UNBROKEN chain of cities(asian Vegas-Macau, Historic Zuhai, Zhongshan, Foshan, Regional capital "Canton /Guagzou," Donguan, Huizhou, the massive Shenzen and finally, the crown-jewel of cities, Hong Kong...the AVERAGE building hight is 20 floors.

READ the facts and WEEP, size-obsessed Americans!!

I don't live in tall buildings though, that's for everyone else, to enjoy spectacular views (three floor country house, for me)....I'm a bit scared of heights.

[homerbear46]

I also have a first-floor flat in an old 10-floor-NO-lift building in Tia Po (around 40 years old now,ANCIENT for this part of the world) It's 2mins walk to the KCR and I have big hopes that property developers will be eager to bribe me handsomely to give them my deeds and F*ck-off, in the near future.

theres no fourth floor because 4 sounds like "death" yeah it's pretty dumb, but it's just like how in some buildings there's no 13th floor.

[homerbear46]
