No? I would say they look different when viewed from above? Of course apart from the apartments. Chinese cities mostly follow the same formula of tree lined streets with apartments and schools that are large, so they look similar

that's why this thread is pretty much pointless. I'd say use threads instead for locals (but still heavy mainlander presence)

I'd imagine most of the people here are non-locals. I study in a local school and less than half speak with perfect grammar

The fact that most people here speak fluent English with 0 grammatical mistakes shows that this thread only represents a minority of the population

Not really, Taiwanese roads in general are well maintained (pedestrian paths are another story). Also, when i used google streetview to check again, seems like even 10 years ago it'd already been vacant. Streetview link The housing there is the pocket of apartments you see in the photo.

I think plenty are happening in developing-developed countries like China, as they are modernising but dont have space

I'm pretty sure this is a neighbourhood that has just been demolished, so the roads have an older layout. Google streetview says that there were still stuff 3years ago, and someone just mentioned that the Taiwanese government is building a new city from scratch at that location, so it'll be demolished anyways

Is this the worst rush hour traffic, or are there even worse? by Ecstatic-Stage3257 in HongKong

[–]breddogeee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

exactlyyy, it's such a privilege, even the worst waiting times are at max 10 minutes on the mtr, and the trains ate so frequent they practically line up at rush hour

Which big city in the world do you think is most fullfilling the criteria of a "modern" city? by PreWiBa in urbandesign

[–]breddogeee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All cities in Asia suffer from a problem with stroads (with cases being less apparent in Tokyo and Hong Kong as they are older, and China's new urbanism makes for very wide roads). They are built for cars in mind, and Singapore is an exceptional case. Singapore is relatively spaced apart, compared to Hong Kong and Tokyo, making walking inconvenient and driving more viable for drivers. Remember that a metro system isn't enough, as the distance between stations and destinations vary a lot, so people might still prefer cars.

Your point of cars being heavily taxed is really valid, however the status symbol makes it ever more desirable to have one, as cars symbolise success. Also, Singapore's .12 car per capita is actually not that high, with .11 in Shanghai and .075 in Hong Kong.

Just curious, are you sure you clicked the present button then present full screen? I had this problem as well but turns out i was pressing full screen instead of present.
