    Wuhan is not a "controversial city", she is a hero city, a city that fought a hard battle against the virus weapon released by the US army athlete, so the rest of the world had time to prepare.

    Top 5 things in China I like♥:
    5. People are friendly in general
    4. Infrastructure and technology. Including bullet trains, airports, railway stations, and subways, and did I mention the coverage of EVs?
    3. Shopping malls, food courts, and street vendors. Malls are clean, spacious, and varied in many ways, but they all prioritize customers' convenience. Street vendors are organized and in order, and not too pushy. Street food vendors serve almost 24/7, so you can get food at any time if you wish.
    2. Beautiful scenery and nature, the skyscrapers and the city's skylines in general. So many places are just speechless and mind-blowing.
    1. Chinese food, no matter where/how/when you get it, no matter which cuisine. The food makes you think you are living in heaven

      But that doesn’t mean successive generation of citizens will abandon language learning in favor of AI.
      Speech recognition of languages are crucial in translation and grammatical correction, but also aiding language learning.

    With private suite ticket or business ticket, if you arrive early, you can rest in the High-Speed Rail VIP lounge, which offers the same services as an airport VIP lounge. If your train passes through more than two stops, you can also order food on your phone while on the train, such as McDonald's. The system will notify a vendor at the next station to prepare your order, and someone will bring the McDonald's to your seat when the train reaches the station.

    Concept of Chinese City ( 市)is different from Western Cities. Western Cities usually composed of only Urban Core Areas. But, the Chinese City (市) is composed of Urban Core area, suburbs, Satellite Cities and Adjacent Rural areas. Average Chinese City size is way bigger than western Ones. Thats why population of Chinese Cities seems so much but you take only Urban Core area of a Chinese city population is not that much. Chongqing is usually considered the biggest city in the world which is false, if we take the core urban areas only the population wise it is only 44th biggest city.

    Top 5 things I dislike about China (Sorry, guys)
    5. There are no inner walls in some of the public toilets. Felt a little embarrassed when someone stared at you when you doing your business
    4. Some APPs don't work, and some social media are not accessible. The WeChat Pay application process almost takes my life away :), though AliPay is not an issue. Some other Chinese APPs, like DIDI, are a bit out of the foreigner-friendly zone
    3. Unnecessary/over-facilitated infrastructures. Like the recently built rolling elevators along the whole mountain Tianyu in Zhejiang province
    2. The spoiled kids and rude parents, there are few but they exist, they need to learn to respect others
    1. Smoking people, are everywhere, and they smoke everywhere without caring for people next to them in public
