    Everyone in China knows the 'air walking' kung fu technique - which allows them to reach the highest books in this library!

    If you're wondering how people reach the books, the unreachable ones are fake. If you pause at 0:21, you can see the extreme contrast in color between the books on the two shelves. The bottom ones are actual books and vibrant in color, the above ones are actually just painted on to the wall and if you look closely, you'll see there actually isn't any books there at all. (Look how far the books stick out on the bottom shelf and compare to one of the top shelves). If there isn't a red tag on the shelf, it's not real.
    Even the steps in the beginning of the video have no books on them, just painted on background (otherwise people would be kicking books all day).

      Please use your common sense and imagination, the foyer of this library is designed to futuristic and stimulate the imagination, it's called architecture and art. They could have built a square building with wooden bookshelves which is what you are thinking but China is a futuristic place and they chose to do it differently.

    Incredibly enjoyable at the first view, equally disapointing in the details : none of the uper stairs in the video is accessible, all the books inside are decoration (so sometime u have real books on the fake books, most of the time, not.. hurra). Where we attempt to cross the pride of this creation with the freedom she inspires, the result seems frustrating.
    I mean i the craziness created is fake, what's remain to the immoderation?

    Did you know you can't access RUclips in China?So why does Chinese government spend a lot of money uploading ads about China on RUclips?And the videos only show the good side of China.Except for big cities,many people in China are living a poor life,why they don't upload videos about that?Why all of you don't know about that?

      @hw9722 6 лет назад

      BTW,let me tell you another reason why I support Google.If there is a website that CCP doesn't want its people see,they can ban that specific website,why do they ban the whole thing?The reason is Chinese government gets jealous,wants to protect their own markets.This action is against WTO rules.For many years,China has taken advantage of WTO,but hasn't followed rules.So I decide to support Google by using their products.However,with #growingnationalism in China and CCP or socialism's obsession with controlling its people,many Chinese people think their government does the right thing,they are happy with their government's actions.They believe their CCP is always great,glorious and right.I don't want to be like that.I'd like to be a member of the free and civilized world.

    • @hw9722

    It's like an extraterrestrial non-human race is given a description of a human library and then tries to duplicate it...😂😂😂😂😂

      As a result, these shelves are covered in perforated aluminium plates that printed to look like books. They are cleaned using a system of moveable scaffolding and ropes.

    It's a real library like back in the days before Google and Apple. Not computer in sight!

    雖然新穎,但感覺不太實用,很好奇高處的書怎麼拿?只是裝飾?還是像無人港用電腦輸入要看到數後機器自動幫你取來?

      那些天花板上的書只是裝飾,他們有更大的庫房擺放真正能被人閱讀的書
