    Chongqing evokes strong 'Blade Runner' vibes. It's an incredibly stunning location; it's unfortunate that the West often overlooks such destinations.

      Yup, thats the Cyberpunk genre. So many cities in east Asia look like that, ESEPCIALLY in China. I wish we had American cities as advanced. Seattle , Chicago, NYC get close but its 100% not all together and crumbling all over the place, especiially in public transportation.

    Nice to see your perspective of CHONGQING.I am so impressed by this. I only wish we have such modern and convenience transport system in the US. It is so dirty and dated in the US. I have been in China for a year now, and apart from some culture shock and social APP blocking, I feel that everything is acceptable. Your apartment is also quite beautiful, I wish you a happy life. I will keep my fingers crossed for you!

    I am also considering to recreate this very video. Maybe you would love to see these places and see what they look like in 2024.

      You can hardly find a safer place than China.
      People in China don't really care which country you come from, They may casually ask where are you from? But that's all. They don't really care, just out of courtesy. Or curious.
      It is inevitable that there will be disputes in the competition between countries. A competent government will deal with these disputes at the national level. Let the people live in happiness, peace and harmony, not in fear and hatred. So you don't have to worry that China people will hate Americans. They will very much welcome you to see for yourself whether this country is as evil as those media claimed.

    • @DualityIsAThing

      Both. Probably 60% take out 40% cook. It’s faster and cheaper to order takeout in China than it is to cook at home.
      The subways are busiest from 7am-10am and 3pm-7pm M-F. Pretty much all day on the weekends.
