This video is about a new metro station in Shenzhen which was no more than a fishing village when I went to UK in 1972. Back in 1972 China had just one metro system and that was Beijing but UK had two with one in London and another in Glasgow. Today in 2023 UK has increased the number of metro by one and that is in Newcastle upon Tyne. China in the same period has added metro to 50 cities. The speed of China building the metro can also be seen by this video claiming the station shown was one out of the 369 station of Shenzhen. I keep records of Chinese development as a matter of interest for fact checks. In my record dated 2021 ShenZhen had only 288 stations and combined total length of 419km. It ranked 10th out of the 200 metro systems in my record with the 11th position occupied by London that has 402km total length and 272 stations. Thus between 2021 and the beginning of 2023 Shenzhen has increased the number of stations by 81. London got 9 new stations out of the newly added Elizabeth line. ShenZhen is just one of the 6 cities that has metro in the Chinese province Guangdong that last year had a GDP comparable to a country like Canada.
Thanks for the great work! look for to watching more of your videos. God bless and keep up the good work the great work ! best regards, I’m Simon from Malaysia
You're one lucky guy. I wish I could get the opportunity to visit all of these beautiful, cool places in China. You'd be hard-pressed to find another country that comes even close to china's infrastructures. ❤❤😊
Hope Brazil and China will establish a good relationship. We Chinese people want peace, we never invaded other countries and definitely are against hegemony. Let's join hands to build a better and harmonious world.
Visited china once, but wish to visit again, to experience the latest, amazingly beautiful whatsoever, being offered there.. all the best for your future undertakings.
when I was in China, what impressed me is that, their cities are so CLEAN!! Almost as clean as Singapore. Same, painting on walls are strictly forbidden, like Singapore. To be honest, although I don't want to offend friends from the US and Europe, the cities and metro in the US and europe, are too dirty and smell badly. For these rich countries, why you cannot spend some effort to make your cities clean??
In Marikina District of Manila, it is as clean as Singapore, but there is no Subway, Soon, in Early 2030s, It will be Served by the Line 8 of Manila Metro, with its station at marikina Heights, after Stage 2 Got Completed.
Kind of reminds me of the new Admiralty station in Hong Kong with 4 lines (the line connecting to Shenzhen opened just last year), which also came with huge escalators and white paint. Pretty cool!
Half a century ago, this sit between Hong Kong and mainland China fishing village was an empty place with mine field blocking people from running over. I remember looking at the bob-wired border from Hong Kong side. The unification of Hong Kong totally open up the potential of this area.
No, it’s not because of open up to Hong Kong. The main reason is the China central government decided to establish special economic zone in Shenzhen, which obtained a lot of favorable policies, for instance, the tax policy. It’s kind of getting concentrated effort to develop a city with resources of a country. Hongkong benefited hugely as a trading window between China and the whole west for many years since like 1970s.
I remember when i saw my country big cities for the first time i was shocked of how new tecnologies ( Madrid and Barcelona of Spain), cuz i born in a touristic island of spain ( Mallorca ) , and after looking china im more shocked about this, omg Spain can't be compared with China! I will travel to China and maybe Japan too. :)
Looks amazing, it reminds me of Kings Cross in London, but makes it look small in comparison. There are many outdoor (uncovered) escalators on the Strip in Vegas, they work better in places where there is less rain.
Always been amazed and pleasant surprised of the subways in China, have only used them in Shanghai, Wuxi and Guangzhou but all have been excellent. We have a small subway network in Oslo, Norway but here you can be knocked down or step on drug needles.😂. They should copy some of the laws from China.
@@kuenc8344 some of the laws I think would be good, like harder punishment for crimes and deport immigrants that doesn't follow rules or adapt to society, instead they get monthly allowances from government, free housing and so on. If you go to prison in my country they get a "nice" room, TV, computer, If they behave they get a "holiday" out of jail for a day or two.😂.
@@bjarne8343 This is not good. There is almost no punishment for those who commit crimes. I remember a man in Norway killed 79 people, and he did not receive serious punishment
@@bbbzhong4166 yes, but at least that guy who killed all the people will never be released. But he have a PlayStation 2 in his cell and complained it was too old.😂 True story, can probably still find it in the papers from some years ago.
It’s called all weather escalator that works in all kind of weather but you still need umbrella when raining and it become slippery when wet so be careful
I'd like to see more of this kind of content. As a USer, a communist and a China Stan, I'd love to share more of this kind of content on my Twitch channel. Cheers.
Grateful, if u would kindly let me know whether china allows using of Google, TH-cam etc. in China. Have you uploaded this video from China? By the way a very informative and good video.
Da Yun station you just shown, must be out of rush/busy-hours. B'cuz it's darn empty, i guess it's below the expected passengers/volume to make profit (?) or let alone making break-even funding (of billions tobe constructed.!?!). Such a mismatched calculation. Hopefully in (near) future, it could catch-up the estimated break-even crowd volume. Build whatever you want, but that have to relate to, at least, the realistic public demand.
well, in China, construction quality depends on "Money", "Regulation" and "Location". For regulation, china has implemented laws like holding construction corp + design houses liable if the building fails in an earthquake less than 8.0 since 2013? (around 2008-2015 I don't remember which exact year) For Location, Shenzhen is not on the fault line so it is unlikely to have earthquake For Money, since its Shenzhen metro, and a state-owned corporation, they can definitely afford the good material and quality. Therefore, normally it is earthquake proof
The design is great but not very fit to Shenzhen and other Guangdong cities, as Guangdong has high precipitation for at least 1500mm annually and very heavy rain during summer. It is better to have shelters for the escalators.
@Heywood, Too bad you will not be around to see how successful China will be in all areas of STEM and leads the world in GLOBALISM. LOL. DON'T WORRY THERE WILL BE A JOB FOR YOU FLIPPING BURGERS TROLL!
Well,, it’s true.. cheenaah’s aggressive moves with neighbouring country will ensure that it will dis integrate into 5 countries.. feeling sad for all these infrastructures going into waste..
This subway puts a lot of international airports in Europe’s capital cities to shame.
Absolutely right👍👍
Couldn't agree more.
Comparing China's infrastucture with that of the rest of the world is no longer meaningful. China is apart from the rest of the world.
You damn right
Exactly 👍

The architects did a wonderful job. This subway station put airports in other countries to shame.

Absolutely stunning 😍
In just half a century/50 years
Thanks Rafa
China excels in almost everything
Especially railway stations

春节快乐！身体健康！万事如意！
this subway station is so big! really like the video you make about the subway station is so cool ! thank for sharing
China is all awesome. Thank you Rafa.
Wow! That's fantastic! The Chinese infrastructure is an example to the world! I would like see it here in Brazil! Congratulations to Chinese people!
Hope Brazil and China will establish a good relationship. We Chinese people want peace, we never invaded other countries and definitely are against hegemony. Let's join hands to build a better and harmonious world.
Keeps fallling à part ,all tofu infrastructure !
That station is pretty insane, wow.
Wow!! China is amazing. ❤️
Massive & Beautiful!👍👏
Wow its very beautiful and modern way better than most airports or transport hub i have been to
Visited china once, but wish to visit again, to experience the latest, amazingly beautiful whatsoever, being offered there.. all the best for your future undertakings.
Wonderful!
Happy Chinese New Year to all
Actually China have many outdoor Escalator in many different places across the country
Outdoor escalators have been around for decades. I saw my first one in Las Vegas about 30 years ago, and I am sure they were around long before that.
Beautiful station, thanks for sharing.
Happy Chinese New Year!
Take a trip to the future!
Chengdu is also already in the future th-cam.com/video/jpaKwxLbwZQ/w-d-xo.html
Men I see China is very very clean! Good video men!
Thank you so much for showing me how China is beautiful 😁👍

The USA is a 💩🕳

Because Western money is going to start wars. China's money is spent on infrastructure
The US can't even stop school massacres. The list of things we cannot do is quite lengthy.
Nice train station
Kind of reminds me of the new Admiralty station in Hong Kong with 4 lines (the line connecting to Shenzhen opened just last year), which also came with huge escalators and white paint. Pretty cool!
China is so ahead it isn't even fair. Big ups!
Even in India I saw outdoor escalators, so nothing surprised to see from china
This one doesn't have that wow factor like the previous one. But this one looks very big
Awesome station!
Chinese infrastructure has no equal on this planet. It is by far the best country in the world in so many categories.
Look like a futuristic airport terminal, even though it's just a subway station. Very incredible...
Amazing china! How I wish to go and visit there one day. But flight tickets from India are so costly to China. Rest countries hv bare minimum fares...
It's too cool.
World class subway station. 😮
It's like a airport 😅😅
Thanks for sharing.

放心，那电梯都是防水的，外面人行天桥基本都有 很早以前就普及了
love the archtictecture.
It feels like i'm in a space stransportation hub now XD
There are some outdoor escalators in Las Vegas, Nevada. The intense heat there in summer must surely be a design challenge.
Shenzhen is actually hotter than Las Vegas
新年快乐，恭喜发财. Happy Chinese New Year, Rafa
Mindblown 🤯
Thank you
China is in 3023 innovation futuriste.ultra modern système métro in thé World
Wow,this is amazing. I hope to see such infrastructural development in Indian metros as well

very clean, no like in Paris!
The RER stations of Paris are also very impressive
I've been to Paris many times and it's one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
China has the best metro systems in the world..
Shenzhen es una Ciudad Tecnologica ✨✨
The Escalators probably should run in BLDC motors to make it waterproof
Actually outdoor escalator has been around a long time. San Francisco had it since the 80's when I was a kid.
Futuristic subway system.
You should go to Beijing and Shanghai and you will see there are more metro lines there.
More please 😅
深圳是科技之城，也是中国特色社会主义先行示范区。城市建设科技与现代。希望更多高科技人才和世界各地的朋友都能来到中国，来到深圳😆

Did you check out Tianfu airport in Sichuan?
成都人吧🤩
Heaven 🚩😻
Show some people around. You're showing it like it's some Ghost station, which I presume it isn't.
Is this international airport???
Grateful, if u would kindly let me know whether china allows using of Google, TH-cam etc. in China. Have you uploaded this video from China? By the way a very informative and good video.
Via VPN
you are misunderstanding China, even this world. you need more travel.
it is like airport
Genial

They are construction juggernaut
Amazing but I wonder if that infraestructure is earthquake proof?
we have Taiwan to endure the earthquakes all happens in the east China.
Depending on whether it is in the earthquake zone or not.
well, in China, construction quality depends on "Money", "Regulation" and "Location".
For regulation, china has implemented laws like holding construction corp + design houses liable if the building fails in an earthquake less than 8.0 since 2013? (around 2008-2015 I don't remember which exact year)
For Location, Shenzhen is not on the fault line so it is unlikely to have earthquake
For Money, since its Shenzhen metro, and a state-owned corporation, they can definitely afford the good material and quality.
Therefore, normally it is earthquake proof
You should have named the video "Dayun station"
❤❤👍👍
I find them are many nice subway stations in china. Specially all the new one's
I would like to see the USA invite China to America to build infrastructure. We are incapable of doing it ourselves. All our money goes to war.
the Lord in parliament don't think so, they think China will monitor American. they would like war, because it make them can monitor this world.
🙉😲😍👏👏👏👍
London Heathrow 🤭
3:03 The design of the station is a bit plain
China super hero don't and Japan
The design is great but not very fit to Shenzhen and other Guangdong cities, as Guangdong has high precipitation for at least 1500mm annually and very heavy rain during summer. It is better to have shelters for the escalators.
Does anyone uses this metro ,its totally empty even for a saturday ,seems to be another useless investment.
