As an Aussie, I visited China just before the pandemic (and I've visited USA). I tell you what, China just blew me away. I had NO IDEA how advanced the Country is (they never tell you this in the West) and how well looked after the Citizens of China are. It was sad to see that USA did NOT care for their Citizens at all with their run down Civic infrastructures (USA is the worse Country in terms of taking care of their Citizens ... they take care of the 1% who own 90% of the Country's Wealth ... and you can see how their citizens are treated). I left China with a whole new respect for what the country is doing for their people. High quality life styles, total freedom and safety that you could walk around their Cities as 2 am in the Morning and feel utterly safe (I would not walk around USA's Cities after midnight ... too many idiots with guns). To all the Westerners criticising China ... you have been totally lied to. You need to go to China and see for yourself of how a Country works and cares for the health, safety, welfare, and education of all their Citizens. You WILL leave thinking ... why doesn't my country do that for us.
thanks for your telling the truth! We love our central government but some local government is not so good. We are still critize them every day in Chinese social medias platforms and once the governors saw our voices and mostly they respond and give a solutions at the end
@@weizhang2834 exactly! People don't understand that Chinese people actually can vote regional politicians or that they can give their opinions. People outside of China think Chinese people are 100% robots lool which is ridiculous.
I didn’t realize that the urbanization rate in China is so high. The development of these lesser known cities is not just incredible in the quantity but also the quality. In another 10 years these urban areas will be unrecognizable and even more beautiful. Thanks Alex for this amazing adventure of today’s Chinese cities.
So wake up if you don't know.. You mean all cities and highways just papers and art work? Millions of Chinese drive to work by cars are paid by ccp.. Lol
No one can ignore the exponential growth of modern China. I live in hope that traditional China matches it's modernization. Great work Alex. Many thanks. Peace
A lot of major cities I did not know were there. Great video, Alex! You have a lot of material for a book about some great things to see in China. Keep em coming for sure!! Stay safe and keep positive. Remember folks, keep to the subject and you won't have any problems. Cheers!!
As a student of history, I know some of these cities were former capitals of China's minor dynasties and splintered states. Each probably has 1000+ years of history behind it. Good work, Alex 👍👍
The first great unified country in China was the Qin Dynasty in 221 BC. Chinese civilization is a continuous civilization. Things of one or two hundred years are not even cultural relics in China!Welcome to China！
OMG!! Every Mega Cities in China is so unique and beautiful in its own rights. I wish I have a million dollar right now so I can spend my whole life exploring China. Lol Beautiful videos as always! 👍✌🤟
These smaller cities may be unheard of outside of China, but they are all famous and familiar names to us Chinese. Each and everyone has great historical significance and is rich with cultural heritage. Take Nanchang (南昌) for example. The classical building you showed as the first footage of the city is called Teng Wang Ge (滕王阁). Every educated Chinese person knows its name from one of the most beautiful ancient article written in Chinese history, 滕王阁序.
You are absolutely right. It might be unheard-of for outsiders/westerners but not for people who have some knowledge of the Chinese history.......Heard of these places from the ancient Chinese history , they have been around for thousands and hundreds of years, they'd just been urbanised and repackaged 😄. I am a Chinese from Malaysia 😎
I would like to draw your attention to Xiangyang City Population: 5.2 mil. This is the crossing of the Bullet Train railroads. I did it on a previous trip to China, taking the train early in the morning, going to another city for the opening of the museums (example Xi'an, Wuhan..) returning to Xiangyang at the end of the evening. Xiangyang is a beautiful city, it has the most beautiful park in China for which you have to pay to enter, it is worth several visits.
Yes xiangyang is the second largest city of Hubei province besides Wuhan. Also the the second largest none province capital city of middle China areas, behind a legend city Luoyang
20 years ago! my uncle said: china only have a few model city(like beijing shanghai) doesn't mean china have good develop! 10 years ago, he said:10~20 model、International、good infrastructure citys is so common in usa! we american have more! 5 years ago,he：100 modernization citys just because china have huge population, in most of town ,china still poor backwardness and lack of infrastructure！ today: china's infrastructure cover almost the whole country, every unknow city can make you amazing! he said: you can go to the deep mountain! find some small village or countryside! Their quality of life must be poor! he hate china, the lackback china can't make his feel proud when he was young!so he immigration to usa,now successful china make him uncomfortable,my uncle wants to prove his decision is right! so he became more and more anti-china!😭😭😭
Very good road networks, bridges, high-rises, night lights, and traditional architecture. Good footage and unique music that's suitable for it. Well selected. Too great!!!
@@Anonymous------ u mean see the filth and squalor and mind numbing pollution. India is the dirtiest country on this planet. The most unhygienic citizenry one can ever come across.
Thanks for showing Shijiazhuang in Hebei province. I lived there for 3 years. Absolutely amazing, I wish more foreigners could move into these lesser known cities and explore them.
Ningbo, Hefei, and Jinan. I think these 3 cities with biggest population and economic output among the cities in your video. I like Nanchang since it looks organized and more developed compare to others.
I Lived in Ningbo for 6 years, such a nice place. You've got everything you need there, with very efficient civil service as well as beautiful landscape and history

Well done Alex! The background information combined with the maps and drone footage really makes this an interesting video. Thanks for sharing. Folks will be surprised at the level of urbanization that has occurred and is occuring.
Glad you enjoyed it! I think we will make a few videos on this. We haveover 160 cities of 1million plus. Maybe we can travel to them all. I think we will see the borders open in November, just in time for a pizza part with Ponte
@@Reporterfy I sure hope so Alex! I am concerned that I am seeing roundtrip economy flights to Chongqing going for 6 to 8 thousand dollars round trip. I was talking to Randy about this last week. Then the best prices we could find were $8K. Hopefully the prices will come down by the time China opens up for our reunion. Randy and I are both enthused about traveling and experiencing Chongqing with you & Julija. Meeting Michele Ponte would be a big bonus for me. Randy has already beat me to this when he hosted him for the day in that fancy Mexican Beach Resort. :-) I have heard that China is like a Diamond sparkling for all the World to Admire! 🙂
@@KenWiggerAnotherAncientGamer These prices will soon change. They are set for charter only. We are hearing big changes coming in the next few months. Hold on we will get there.
Having worked in International Shipping for 10 years, prior to retirement, I am able to say that I was familiar with a number of places you presented in this video. I really enjoyed this video for the simple fact that I was now able to actually see the places I so frequently shipped raw product for manufacturing. I was not so surprised by the size of these lesser known mega cities, but more astonished with their individual GDP. Reporterfy Media & Travel, (Alex / Julija) and your entire team, have done another excellent job in creating this video, along with providing factual statistics on population and GDP. Your drone footage is always spectacular in all of your videos! Long hours, hard work, and dedication make you the outstanding #1 TH-cam channel when presenting China! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Thanks Randy , nice to know you enjoyed the video. I was telling Ken we should visit manyof these unknown cities. We have many more cities to share, I really think visiting these unknown cities would make for some great travel vlogs.
@@Reporterfy Totally agree and not only that, but it would put on the ground visuals for the world to see that China's development is real and it's happening.
Pls keep low profile & quiet for China’s achievements, let’s US believe they are number one & superpower, let EU convinced themselves they are “developed countries “ , leave Chinese alone to enjoy theirs “ poor & sad “ life’s please . 😊
The US has 200 cities with crumbling infrastructures where every day a bridge collapses or we see a train derailment. China has 600 cities with state-of-the-art infrastructures. A small city in China is bigger and more modern than New York City. 🇦🇫💓🇨🇳
The USA government spends much money on military bases and bioweapon labs all over the world, but nothing to help the homeless people on the streets and parks all over USA.
Oh come on bro, The United States has been urbanized as early as 100 years ago, and the infrastructure will certainly become old. China is an emerging country, and everything is new. Over time, these things will also be old, but I believe that China will spend $2trillion to update it, rather than killing people in Afghanistan
Helo...your regular viewer. 2 days more to watch this video 🤯 . I know this is out of context but I just wanna share a news: india - china trade has crossed 67 billion mark in the first half of this year, and can again become our largest trading partner
It's good to see India is abandoning USA for Russia and China. USA was using India for New World Order agenda, hopefully now India stops following the orders from USA and start working with China and Russia in developing a peaceful mutual relationship with other developing countries. USA and its western allies gangsters have no intention to help other countries but to use them in New World Order agenda.
I know most of the cities mentioned, however my memory about them is almost blank that I cannot even tell one or two things about them. Except the city of Nanchang, I know a few things about it as today is August 1st.
To those who do not know these cities, here's a easier/funnier version of names for you: 1. Shi Jia Zhuang ------ Rock Town 2. Ning Bo ------ Quiet Wave 3. He Fei ------ Fatty Gathering 4. Ji Nan ------ Southern Ferry 5. Chang Chun ------ EverGreen/Springfield 6. Heng Yang ------ South of Hengshan mountain 7. Nan Chang ------ Prosper South 8. Tai Yuan ------ Too Flat 9.

Neither can the rest of the world.That's what determination n very hard work can achieve if you really have your.PEOPLES interest at HEART. LIFE OVER WAR seems to be the CHINA WAY. I Personally prefer this WAY.
In fact, thanks to China's excellent logistics, China's automobile industry is widely distributed. Changchun has FAW Group, Shanghai has SAIC Motor Group, Guangzhou Auto Group, Shenzhen has BYD, and Hangzhou has Geely Group. These are the biggest car companies in China, and they have production bases in many Chinese cities.
Love the drone work. very impressive can see the landscape of the city. China works very hard and does an excellent job of developing all this city even though is not a famous city. 😍👏👏👏👏👏
Bro, those are residential buildings. Because the economic level of different cities is different, the styles of real estate developers will be different. There are many styles of residential buildings in developed cities. Xining’s economy is not developed, so the styles designed by developers are also very simple. But people can get it at a lower price.
When I was looking into Daniel channels, I noticed that I haven't seen anymore video from you too, so I click on your channel and noticed that I'm not subscribe in your channel. First time that happen to me.
China has a new shift. It wants to redistribute population from big cities to medium scale cities. It even wants purposeful cities such as cities dedicated to finance/insurance/etc, cities for high tech research, cities for manufacturing, cities for municipal government, etc. It wants to create a group of such specialized cities and integrate them w/ high speed rails. The building of medium size cities will be much more manageable and livable, and people can still access principal areas.
Thank you for showing others that China is a place of progress, but also a work in progress. We are not complacent, we are a hardworking nation. We are an example to the world in many aspects and you shouldn’t hate us for it. Rather learn from us. We have thousands of years of history, which have taught us after many wars to live in harmony with the rest of the world and people who are different since China is made up of so many ethnic, linguistic, cultural, religious groups. We are not perfect. We don’t claim to be. The government is constantly doing things to improve China. We’ve taken all the hate and we’ve been working hard, humbly. And the more people who know the truth the more they should ask their governments to focus on their own people. The one solid reason China has not crumbled and is not a mess is because of unity, political unity, stability and good leadership. 🇨🇳🚀✨
Suggest you get a female voice with standard Mandarin accent to announce the city and put the Chinese characters there in addtion to the pinying. This will help me remember the city and improve my Mandarin. This will make your video more accessible for any future Chines audience too.
@@Reporterfy I only see auto-translate [choose language]. Choosing Mandarin gives me an auto-translate. Even the english is auto-translated. The video doesn't come with subtitles as far as I can see. You have a different version? Also the name of the city is not mentioned and therefore not even auto-translated. You might want to bring this up to Alex.
@@dyong888 we have people help us. We have translation on all 184 videos this will follow. Since we are self funded we don have the luxury. Donate to our channel and we can become more efficient. We also have 600k followers on our Chinese platform
Awesome drone shots as usual! For haters gonna hate! lets learn to ignore the bots and the hate messages and cherrish whats REAL and not western Propaganda.
Jaw dropping, absolutely jaw dropping the number of cities with those populations and economic outputs...never in human history have I seen such astonishing feats of engineering. Wow! It's quite mind boggling what China has accomplished. I am beyond impressed.
"662 mega city" Average American cities haven't gotten any better since the 80s than few cities in Tibet AR 40 years since opening up. That's telling about the pretense of the so-called "American Dream" and "Upward Mobility".
It often happens that I see a video from China (it's usually about cooking, or morning wine, or street food, there are hundreds of them now) and don't recognize the name of the city. I look it up on Wikipedia, and it's a huge place, bigger than any place I've ever lived or visited! IN China, it's not regarded, people might be joking "Oh, this is a fifth-tier city" kind of thing. To me it looks like METROPOLIS! Buildings all lit up at night, open market at night that goes on for a mile, trains, you name it. I have this experience several times in one week!
China, a great place to fly a drone! All looks pretty spectacular from the air. Who has the best street food, that's what we want to know! Where would someone visit, where would someone relocate? I understand that this is hard to show in a glance. I'm from Miami, pretty famous, pretty big... still full of poverty and violence, not convenient or maybe safe to go out at night in many places.... where I live there are homeless people everywhere I go, little camps in the woods, people sleeping on the street... one could go on and on, a rising tide of poverty! America has certainly lost that feeling that things are getting better for people in general, and China clearly has that! I think the feeling that things are getting better might be the best thing for morale in general.... Here there is a lot of FEAR.
As an Aussie, I visited China just before the pandemic (and I've visited USA). I tell you what, China just blew me away. I had NO IDEA how advanced the Country is (they never tell you this in the West) and how well looked after the Citizens of China are. It was sad to see that USA did NOT care for their Citizens at all with their run down Civic infrastructures (USA is the worse Country in terms of taking care of their Citizens ... they take care of the 1% who own 90% of the Country's Wealth ... and you can see how their citizens are treated).
I left China with a whole new respect for what the country is doing for their people. High quality life styles, total freedom and safety that you could walk around their Cities as 2 am in the Morning and feel utterly safe (I would not walk around USA's Cities after midnight ... too many idiots with guns).
To all the Westerners criticising China ... you have been totally lied to. You need to go to China and see for yourself of how a Country works and cares for the health, safety, welfare, and education of all their Citizens. You WILL leave thinking ... why doesn't my country do that for us.

Over time, these things will also be old, but I believe that China will spend $2trillion to update it, rather than killing people in Afghanistan
@@baikaage6855 very well said I totally agree with you. China is slowly rebuilding my country and Afghans are extremely excited about it.
Helo...your regular viewer.
2 days more to watch this video 🤯 .
I know this is out of context but I just wanna share a news: india - china trade has crossed 67 billion mark in the first half of this year, and can again become our largest trading partner
It's good to see India is abandoning USA for Russia and China. USA was using India for New World Order agenda, hopefully now India stops following the orders from USA and start working with China and Russia in developing a peaceful mutual relationship with other developing countries. USA and its western allies gangsters have no intention to help other countries but to use them in New World Order agenda.
Good to know, these 2 are old civilizations, both rich history and culture.
I'm russian.
I love China.💓💓💓💓💓
tge global south is with russia
As the location for Xi'an airport, Xianyang might play second fiddle but plenty of potential for development.
Thank you MP
谢谢您非常客观地展示中国城市面貌，视频没有美化也没有贬低，视频中的这些城市在中国城市排名30名后，希望您继续展示出中国其他城市！我来自广东省其中一个城市
I know most of the cities mentioned, however my memory about them is almost blank that I cannot even tell one or two things about them. Except the city of Nanchang, I know a few things about it as today is August 1st.

My dad is still in disbelief that this is China for thats not the China he remembers. 👏
Neither can the rest of the world.That's what determination n very hard work can achieve if you really have your.PEOPLES interest at HEART. LIFE OVER WAR seems to be the CHINA WAY. I Personally prefer this WAY.
Ah - mazing vid as always !
Changchun is known for its automobile industry in China, just like Detroit, US. Ningbo is a major port city just south of Shanghai.
Welcome to Changchun. Changchun is a very beautiful industrial city, a modern city with unique Chinese cuisine.
In fact, thanks to China's excellent logistics, China's automobile industry is widely distributed. Changchun has FAW Group, Shanghai has SAIC Motor Group, Guangzhou Auto Group, Shenzhen has BYD, and Hangzhou has Geely Group. These are the biggest car companies in China, and they have production bases in many Chinese cities.
Its so nice to give us a map... Keep it up
I like the video you took very much. It's shocking and beautiful. Thank you!
Please share
I have heard of most of these cities and been to a few of them. They are all beautiful and amazing. 🇨🇳
Great video
I would say Jinan and Hefei are the most impressive going by the footage, although in images Ningbo is actually the most impressive.
Love the drone work. very impressive can see the landscape of the city. China works very hard and does an excellent job of developing all this city even though is not a famous city. 😍👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks 👍
Why there are several buildings with the same architecture in chinese cities & towns? An example is @4:18
Bro, those are residential buildings. Because the economic level of different cities is different, the styles of real estate developers will be different. There are many styles of residential buildings in developed cities. Xining’s economy is not developed, so the styles designed by developers are also very simple. But people can get it at a lower price.
Those building looks like thane(a indian city)
你的视频我每个都必须要看
These cities are a bit more known now thanks to.your great work💯👍
Great to see you here man
Beautiful cities!!!!

When I was looking into Daniel channels, I noticed that I haven't seen anymore video from you too, so I click on your channel and noticed that I'm not subscribe in your channel. First time that happen to me.
Yes, right.
China has a new shift. It wants to redistribute population from big cities to medium scale cities. It even wants purposeful cities such as cities dedicated to finance/insurance/etc, cities for high tech research, cities for manufacturing, cities for municipal government, etc. It wants to create a group of such specialized cities and integrate them w/ high speed rails. The building of medium size cities will be much more manageable and livable, and people can still access principal areas.
NICE VIDEO
thank you
Just WoW..., unbelievable 😲
Much appreciated
Beautiful music❤ What is the title?
Thank you for showing others that China is a place of progress, but also a work in progress. We are not complacent, we are a hardworking nation. We are an example to the world in many aspects and you shouldn’t hate us for it. Rather learn from us. We have thousands of years of history, which have taught us after many wars to live in harmony with the rest of the world and people who are different since China is made up of so many ethnic, linguistic, cultural, religious groups. We are not perfect. We don’t claim to be. The government is constantly doing things to improve China. We’ve taken all the hate and we’ve been working hard, humbly. And the more people who know the truth the more they should ask their governments to focus on their own people. The one solid reason China has not crumbled and is not a mess is because of unity, political unity, stability and good leadership. 🇨🇳🚀✨
谢谢你，辛苦了，我是中国人，你的频道没有抹黑中国！感谢！已订阅，✌️✌️✌️我看到我的家乡----衡阳

It's too unreal and indescribable 🤩
I live in a small town ，only a few hundred thousand people，the town has a lot of villages .
Good job.
Suggest you get a female voice with standard Mandarin accent to announce the city and put the Chinese characters there in addtion to the pinying. This will help me remember the city and improve my Mandarin. This will make your video more accessible for any future Chines audience too.
Our videos come with subtitles
@@Reporterfy I only see auto-translate [choose language]. Choosing Mandarin gives me an auto-translate. Even the english is auto-translated. The video doesn't come with subtitles as far as I can see. You have a different version?
Also the name of the city is not mentioned and therefore not even auto-translated. You might want to bring this up to Alex.
@@dyong888 we have people help us. We have translation on all 184 videos this will follow. Since we are self funded we don have the luxury. Donate to our channel and we can become more efficient. We also have 600k followers on our Chinese platform

This is no propaganda. It's as real as daylight. The most beautiful and disciplined. Go see it for real.
china has 663 big cities , big , model ,clean ,safe , people are hard working ,welcome to china for visiting

All in the description
Awesome drone shots as usual!
For haters gonna hate!
lets learn to ignore the bots and the hate messages and cherrish whats REAL and not western Propaganda.
Jaw dropping, absolutely jaw dropping the number of cities with those populations and economic outputs...never in human history have I seen such astonishing feats of engineering. Wow! It's quite mind boggling what China has accomplished. I am beyond impressed.
Please subscribe
@@Reporterfy done my friend.
"662 mega city" Average American cities haven't gotten any better since the 80s than few cities in Tibet AR 40 years since opening up. That's telling about the pretense of the so-called "American Dream" and "Upward Mobility".
Very nice
看到衡阳了 哈哈 有老乡吗
🇨🇳🤝🏻🇧🇩
It often happens that I see a video from China (it's usually about cooking, or morning wine, or street food, there are hundreds of them now) and don't recognize the name of the city. I look it up on Wikipedia, and it's a huge place, bigger than any place I've ever lived or visited! IN China, it's not regarded, people might be joking "Oh, this is a fifth-tier city" kind of thing. To me it looks like METROPOLIS! Buildings all lit up at night, open market at night that goes on for a mile, trains, you name it. I have this experience several times in one week!
China, a great place to fly a drone! All looks pretty spectacular from the air. Who has the best street food, that's what we want to know! Where would someone visit, where would someone relocate? I understand that this is hard to show in a glance. I'm from Miami, pretty famous, pretty big... still full of poverty and violence, not convenient or maybe safe to go out at night in many places.... where I live there are homeless people everywhere I go, little camps in the woods, people sleeping on the street... one could go on and on, a rising tide of poverty! America has certainly lost that feeling that things are getting better for people in general, and China clearly has that! I think the feeling that things are getting better might be the best thing for morale in general.... Here there is a lot of FEAR.
Amazing video！
where are comments?
Great cities.
