Oh I really love seeing a more residential street of Chongqing instead of the business districts or arterials. Some beautiful shots there inside and out. You can almost feel the humidity.
@@alexsozansky Because it is more 3D-ish XP. It is hard to explain but simply saying that these buildings are not just plain boring glass boxes on flat ground. They displayed more internal and external expansion/attachment, each floor is unique and filled with the evident of living.
@@aloedark5221 what chongqing is really old plus chongqing is huge its not like everything becomes well in short time. do you even know what it looked like 20 years ago yet 60 years. Its the largest city in the world with people migrating to it non stop. Its not a new planned city like shenzhen.
I enjoyed filming the jungle video in the city where there are many people! You walked and carefully filmed! Everywhere people live in the world, they can feel warm energy!
12:19 i recognize this place. I think the road leads to Jie Fang Bei? I used to ride a bus from Nan'an to Jie Fang Bei at least once a week and this was the route the bus took. For years I would look at the uphill path and wondered what the kind of neighborhood was tucked away behind the main road.
Thanks for sharing my friend and glad I can bring back some memories for you! I can't say for sure which area this is but it is in the same general area as Jie Fang Bei and that road could very well lead there. I usually walk and film randomly and spontaneously without paying much attention to where I am.
This video and channel got recommended by The China Show formerly known as ADV podcasts. I like your walking through China videos because things in Germany look totally different.
more like rusty and dirty steampunk but without the wood, instead of it you get soulles concrete that is also rotting because no one maintains it. but this city looks interesting i give it that. wouldnt want to live there tho.
Wow, this is quite a quality content you've made there. I just came here after seeing you writing a comment on Rambalac's channel. I was kinda interested in Chinese casual look. I'm not disappointed. Thanks.
Wow, thank you Hory-portier for your immense praise of my quality works! It is support from people like you that give me the motivation to continue uploading success contents. It is my unqualified pleasure to bring you a glimpse of everyday China!
So great I can see and experience another part of the world through your channel. Visiting Asia is one of the things I intend to do next year. Great to see where people live instead of the common city walks. Great job
This video has lovely climate , but how do you think people living there feel that climate :), with all those dark corridros, rainy staircases, living in flats without front door ...
@@Prometeusz yeah it must be very diffrent then what we are used to in the west. i mean some of those half rotten buildings had no windows! just rusting steal bars like a prison would have them... a very diffrent world indeed. i mean my city is not the cleanest. but damn now i appreciate the people that keep it from looking like that.
I'm sorry I only saw this video now, it was taken very well. I have lived in such places since I was a child, and now I can find them in Chongqing. These buildings are about 40 years old, and due to urban development, they are also rapidly decreasing. Whenever I pass through these ancient urban areas, I stay for a long time, and childhood memories come to my mind. My grandparents, these old stone stools, and old awnings are a kind of sentiment. I am a local and currently residing in Chongqing. If you have any questions about the video, you can ask me
Very calm and serene people living in high density. They have small chances of moving out of urban blight. Like to see their parks and river banks! God bless everyone on camera. Peace.
Thank you for the comment Cheryl! Luckily the insides of these apartments will look much nicer than the outside, as is the case for most buildings in China!
I absolutely love cities like this, it seems so crowded because of the buildings... Weird to say but it brings me some sort of comfort? I love small or closeted spaces. I know it might seem weird to others, might look disorganized to some but this kind of space makes me happy! Especially when it rains :)
It’s a human instinct to prefer closed areas over open areas, since our ancestors were more likely to survive in smaller, more closed places than open and wide places. Very cool fact to learn and it explains our comfort for places such as this.
Chongqing is a mountainous city, just like Japan is an island country. The distance between buildings is very close, and there are few spacious roads. I don't know if it's because I am from Chongqing or because people instinctively prefer narrow spaces (similar to sleeping with doors closed), and I also feel very comfortable with this feeling 笔
Definitely Chongqing under the rain looks even prettier than on dry days. Watching, I remembered the original anime 'Ghost in the Shell' from 1995. Congratulations for your decision to walk in the rain to film. Really, thank you!
Hello. I like your videos. Here is my feedback: Pros: Interesting and beautiful locations Good camera quality Good ambient sounds Cons: Need to increase walking speed Better to focus on walking straight forward rather than constant turning left and right
Thanks for your feedback my friend.. Many people have told me they like that I turn the camera to show the surroundings, rather than just walking from A to B. I don't understand the point of filming a place if you're just going to briskly walk forward from point A to B without showing anything around you.
@@streetsofasia8895 I agree! I want to experience a place in the way that I would if I were there. I don't want to see a place like a robot would see it.
Wow , it seems like your staircases in Chongqing in older buildings extend openly to exterior with no doors or middle areas . It's all open to atmospheric conditions ....
Exactly!!!!!!! I never expected anyone here to feel the same! I feel like I've been here before and I miss these so badly you know, it makes me wanna cry like, I'm homesick to this place these people, I love this. I feel like this is my part here which in real I've never been to china, yet I feel so emotionally attached to this place!
This place (the district in the beginning of the video) reeks of affluence. If you're from US you'll never be able to tell, but being Eastern European/North Asian/North African you will immediately feel the vibe. This is where old wealth are. This is where covid draconian measures was never as harsh as in "new elite" condominiums. This is where the party chief live. This is where grannies who saw Mao as a kid live. This is where the important people live.

this place is a true cyberpunk/blade runner experience
Absolutely! That was one of my biggest inspirations to start this channel.
Reminds me more of a place you would see in Ghost in the Shell
Looks like a slum
I like how "3D-ish" this place is, many people will think place like this are unattractive, but this is like a crown jewel to me.
been there
it is. i missed that place
Idk why people keep calling it 3D. It's a city with buildings...
@@alexsozansky Because it is more 3D-ish XP.

@@bigfoxki very well said, that's why I love places like this
Yes it's like an ant hive
Walking in the rain brings me so much peace into my mind! Very nice ambient... Thanks!
Me too! I love rainy walks!
@@streetsofasia8895 me too
@@streetsofasia8895 please keep making videos
I've always been fascinated with the density of Chongqing!
Yeah that is what I love so much about Chongqing. There is so much to see and so much going on everywhere you look.

Cyberpunk is right! Definitely off the tourist track and I love it. Great tour. Thanks - Henry
Yeah most cyberpunk city I've ever seen! Glad you enjoyed it :)
this place is certainly a Kowloon-vibe in architect forms of buildings.
Awesomes!
This place has an amazing amount of character omg
character = poverty
@@MCart1215 ok weirdo
@@thejanet you're the weirdo for liking the poverty aesthetic lmfao
@@MCart1215 Bangladesh has a poverty aesthetic. This place has a character, a busy, lived-in urban landscape aesthetic.

It was cyberpunk rainy walk 😊
Streets of the tourist route and shows real life.
Great walk 😊
Thank you my friend GoodWalkers, I look forward to your comments for a long time.
wow it really looks dystopian....
how is it even dystopian lol it’s literally a really old city build perched onto a side of hills.
@@Ecnop9 this city is not older than 60 (at max). It is just so rotten that it looks very old xD

there seem to be quite a few of us xD
Wow, this is so relaxing. Thank you for sharing your walks with us!
I ❤ 重庆. Thanks for sharing.
This is a fantastic urban jungle video. Amazing introduction to Chongqing.
The scenery from the first scene is wonderful. I love how the streets look on a rainy day! Thanks for sharing the video!
This is the footage I've been looking for! Great upload.
Only way it could be better is if it was in a thunderstorm at night in 4K :)
I would love to film in 4K once I get a better computer!
Thank you 😆 from Singapore
Really amazing layout, the hills and the buildings. I could walk for hours.
Incredible scenes with a lot ambiente and some rain, i like this pure life. Good work

yup it does i was in Berlin and i thougt it was filthy, but damn this city took this concept and ran with it.
love this channel!! great source of inspiration for artist in the gaming/ movie industry
That's amazing to hear! I'd love for artists to reference my videos.

Great job
Hope you have a great time in Asia and thanks so much for the support!
Oh thank you soo much for this! I´ve been hoping you´d upload some further Chongqing walks, cuz its quite hard to find those in the western internet..
It is always my greatest pleasure to provide these walks for all to see clearly! Thank you very much for the support!
Love the verticality and density of this city. Great video man! Which area of the Chongqing was this walk?
Thanks so much my friend! To be honest I don't remember where this was specifically, but it was somewhere near 观音岩 or 大溪沟.
Cool movie with great sound effects. Good work.
This city’s a beast. Never seen anything like it before. This has to be an amazing place to visit and live.
It's my favorite city I've been to absolutely. I've never lived there before but it's a dream of mine, at least for a few months or so.
@@streetsofasia8895 this is like New York and Chicago on steroids, lol.
Very nice and atmospheric video! keep on coming with more :D
Thanks for the support mate! Plenty more videos to come!
I'm in love with this walk 💖
Very cool ! The place feels like a village but with tall flats.
the sound of rain with this traditional neighborhoods is a magical combination and this combination have made this video as a lovely one!
Good work👌💛

great footage!! Subscribed!!!
Tourist guides will not show you these parts but it's something that is surely interesting to see. Thanks for sharing!
I really try to show a side of China that people don't see often, and I try to avoid tourist attractions generally. Thank you for your support!

Perfect video! Thank you for sharing!
love to explore the maze within the block
Cool! Great video, I like the contrast between the trees, concrete of the buildings and how they r mixed in at the start of the video!
