Speaking of empty train stations, I remember back in 2009 when Guangzhou South Station first opened, a NY Times reporter ridiculed it "cavernous". But less than ten years later, it became so crowded that Guangzhou decided to build an even bigger one in the North of the city.
Or this many in the west call "loneliest metro station" built in the middle of nowhere... The western media would use every opportunity to slander China and they have no idea about TOD (Transit Oriented Development).
Xiong'an is being built faster than I imagined, and China's construction is really strong. The greening is well done.I believe that in another 10 years, the construction here will be more complete.
@@drewh3224 You will definitely be wrong 10 years from now. This is a government project with proper city planning not BS private developments like Evergrande and such. Those so called "ghost cities" most of them are the product of unscrupulous private corporations and bribery of local officials. You can keep wishing for China's collapse until hell freezes over.
It’s interesting even for a Chinese person to visit Xiongan. I’ve heard many people in China ridicule the plan of Xi. I don’t think we have all the info and data to understand why he made the decision to build Xiongan. It’s hard to predict the future. Back in 2002, people were riding bikes on the 4th ring road and people in Beijing were saying that was a waste and corrupt project. Where are those people now?
Far sighted Western media are prejudiced and its good they keep the CPC on their toes to make sure CPC never forgets its first rule- serve the people selflessly Western media just tout the policies of their govt and brain wash westerners daily and do not do their scrutiny on their own governments as they are staffed and paid for by National Endowment for Democracy or CXA Thank you western media for keeping CPC on their toes!!! Helps China heaps
I think Chinese govt put infrastructure in place before people moving into the area, whilst some countries would wait till the population reaches a certain point to justify the spending on infrastructure.
In the West we always play catchup. We wait until we have utter chaos in cities and then try to fix it. I think some countries like China are trying to develop before the chaos. And of course that means things will be built out before people and industries are brought in. Not having masses of people and industry there first and then try to adapt needed infrastructure around them.WE are just shocked by that because we aren't used to governments that plan for future needs or problems. And not just try to run around like a "chicken with it's head cut off" trying to fix the problems.
I remembered that it was like just a few years ago when the president announced this "Xiong-An new district". What you are showing today is a lot more than I would expect on what used be bare land. For this project to be successful, I think it needs a catalyst, like some big tech company relocating their research campus here, or a few supply chain companies for the AirBus assembly in Tianjin setting up close to here. Many years ago, when the city of Guangzhou was expanding east, it created the district "ZhuJiang New City". The roads and buildings went up very fast, but with very few occupants. Some retail stores that was there very early suffered and eventually closed before the city attained the critical mass. Today, "ZhuJiang New City" is operating normally, and the city has expanded even more towards the east and southeast. But Xiong-An is not part of Beijing. To lure Beijing residents to move there, the train fare has to be low enough for it to make financial sense.
Thanks so much for showing us how it's like there! A few years ago there was a wave of heat over Xiong'an. People were trying to buy land and residents were trying to hold on to their property to bet on price hike and win a fortune by land acquisition compensation. Later government put restrictions on speculation and it quieted down. There was also quite some disapproval on the web stating this "prestige project" of Xi's is doomed to fail due to lack of water. Over the years I have figured out Xi's not as dumb as some hoped. Still this seems to be a high stake project. Hope it goes well. A well planned city will be good for both the environment and people's wellbeing.
That was a very informative tour. Have no idea how many trains will be traveling there or if it is a major interchange or destination. Looking forward to see what it will look like when fully utilized.

3:05 I think that those three freestanding pillars with the multiple holes at the top are automatic firefighting structures that use cameras and sensors to locate the fires and shoot streams of water/fire retardant - for anyone who’s curious 👍
I have a feeling that when you look back 5 years from now, this video will be incredible. How successful or busy Xiongan will be who can tell, but if the Beijing government is going to split up and move here, it's won't be a "ghost city" as Western schadenfreude prays it would be. It's not often you build and design a modern techno city from the ground up, anywhere in the world.
Smart city planning is so important. I remember moving to a newer part of the city in Texas and they built a new DMV. My first time there were 40 stations staff with workers and I might have been the 10th person in there all day. I thought it was great but also a waste of money but they told they expected the location would be one of the busier one in a few years. By the time I had to renew in five years the wait was 2 hours long, and it was staffed with 60 workers.
Thanks! I sub to this channel to see hope for the future displayed in China, vs. the utter despair of a culture that can't get out of its ugly past, which is America.

前段时间在西瓜视频上看到一个中国的视频博主做的关于雄安的介绍视频！为雄安的城市建设而点赞！现阶段雄安这座城市的人口确实有点少，但一个城市聚集区的形成往往都需要相当长的时间！看好雄安的未来！谢谢你做的这个视频！ Several month ago, I saw an introduction video about Xiongan made by a Chinese video blogger on Xigua Video! Praise for the urban construction of Xiongan! At this stage, the population of Xiong'an is indeed a bit small, but the formation of an urban agglomeration often takes quite a long time! Optimistic about the future of Xiongan! Thank you for this video!
Agenda 2030 has some items worth noting dealing with smart cities worldwide! China plans ahead ! In Nanning, our smart city area was breaking ground in 2006. Enjoyed the video

Thanks for sharing!!! I have heard that the Chinese government would have the infrastructure in place before people moving into the area, whilst most countries do the other way round.
I think this city is only for government stuff. It's like when the US did the Manhattan project, they had to build a city for the scientists, families, etc. It's sort of the same thing. It's a city for government employees.
Building good infrastructure is never wrong better build up the country, in China the state dictates the policies while capitalist countries the profits dictates the policies
The objective is to move many central government institutions out of Beijing. I won't be surprised it will take another 15 or 20 years before it is properly developed and filled. But it will be filled. It is part of the plan. One thing we know about CCP is that when it is planned, it will be delivered.
This will be a model for the new cities. Once it fulfills the goals. Whatever learnt will be used in other cities through reconstructions or renovations.
Xiong'an will become a first tier city at the same level as Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Guangzhou, and Chongqing in the future maybe around 2050.
I can remember Singapore in the 80s last century used to have huge housing projects stuck out in the sticks....loads of roads with no traffics and acres of empty flats and shops.....those were the days when there was empty spaces to fill......planning....
will xiongan be a success or a failure ??? people need to put emotion and politics aside and come back to look at it in 5 years. but not 10 years because if properties are not maintained on a regular basis, they would decay. so i would say give it 5 years to see where it will go then. love from canada.
Thank you so much for this video because I saw another video saying that President Xi's dream city is a wasteland, nobody ever wants to move here... etc. Lol, it's not even finished yet! In the library, the screen shows 2 short children stories -- a master and his slave and a cat and a rooster. Not that interesting 😄
Wow, we've heard about this new city they are building, you are the first people to show us what it's like on the ground. It's still so empty, when do you think residents will move in en mass?
the reason for height restriction is due to their negative impact on economy. there are generally a few physical limitation to building height. 6 storey is how tall you can go without elevators. 30 storey is how tall you can go with 1 set of elevators, 60 storey is how tall you can go with 2 set of elevators. any taller requires express elevators and soon you end up with a building where most of it floorspace is used by elevator shaft and requires alot of money to maintain. and these supertall building tend to require financing from bank, where their higher cost of operation create unnecessary liabilities to the health of the banking sector.
They built Daxing International airport next door first then this massive train station is a successful Chinese style “transit oriented city development”.
i absolute love how CHINA gov take care of their land... plan, n build and never forget the transport... all done .... all in place... later ppl will move in ...this wont take long...
the New York Times reported it was "cavernous" , but didn't say it was safe & clean, and unlike New York city metro which were infested with rats, homeless people, and criminals 🤣😂🤣😂
It will be even more fascinating when Miguel’s home state (Florida) government comes to their sense and finally decides to build something akin to Netherland’s Deltaworks. It’s just hard to fathom how indifferent those American officials are when it comes to protecting low-lying states like Florida. You see any hope that Florida may finally be flood-proof like the Netherlands..?
There are few people because houses there cannot be bought and sold freely. The threshold is very high, even if you are Chinese, there are many restrictions on where to buy real estate!
The book was about a man buying a black man and thinking his skin color was a result of how the previous owner treated him, and then trying to wash the color away. It's unsurprising the employee tried to change it.
It's a ghost city and at the same time at least people have jobs there helping to building the new city, can't wait until 2035 and see what it looks like.
Xiongan is design to be the connection to turn Beijing, Tianjin, Baoding into a single metropolitian area like Tokyo. I am personally oppose to keeping the capital in Beijing, but if you want to keep the capital in Beijing, than this project make sense. why I don't prefer Beijing as a capital is because it environment is not suitable, it is cold, far from the center of traffic, and lack access to one of the major river. Wuhan region is far more suitable for a modern capital of China, putting itself in equidistance to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chongqing and Xian. encourgaing the development of China to go "westward" away from the coast. this will create a brand new engine of growth as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou will develop into metropolis in their own right without the need to be capital. really the only reason to keep the capital in Beijing is historic continuity, but I would argue just as the era of Changan is over, so is the era of Beijing. Beijing was made capital to control the frontier, a frontier that no longer exist. Mongol are never going to raid China again. instead of a capital design to push resources north, China now need a capital design to push resources west. but I can understand Xi jinping decision, moving a capital would be a major undertaking, so he choose a more conservative path. yes Xiongan is "conservative" in my view LOL!
LOL I don't think that story was anything bad or offensive. It says "someone bought a black person, thinking the person is black because the previous owner wasn't taking good care of him/her, so this buyer tried to use soap and water to clean the person, but to no avail, and got the black person sick instead. This story tells us what comes with birth stay the same. " The story tells in an old fable style. Slaveries and in particular black slaveries are pretty infamous and well known, I don't see why it can't be used as a premise of an old-time story, just like using a king or a knight. Also the story was indicating the buyer's ignorance of not realizing the black skin is something natural that came with birth, the moral of the story is also to respect and not change something that came with a person, so overall it's a decent story, nothing to cover your eyes for.
Speaking of empty train stations, I remember back in 2009 when Guangzhou South Station first opened, a NY Times reporter ridiculed it "cavernous". But less than ten years later, it became so crowded that Guangzhou decided to build an even bigger one in the North of the city.

This story tells us what comes with birth stay the same. " The story tells in an old fable style. Slaveries and in particular black slaveries are pretty infamous and well known, I don't see why it can't be used as a premise of an old-time story, just like using a king or a knight. Also the story was indicating the buyer's ignorance of not realizing the black skin is something natural that came with birth, the moral of the story is also to respect and not change something that came with a person, so overall it's a decent story, nothing to cover your eyes for.
China plan the future of the country and make it reality.
