The buildings are so huge, amazing, it's hard to believe this is a developing country. Western media has always described China as a poor and backward country.I have only been in China for one year, but during this year, I did not see a homeless person. China really feels like the future.most of people in the west can't even tell where Asia is , let alone the difference between Asian countries.
It's just a developed city in a developing country. China has less than half population(above 500 million) live in tier1 and tier2 cities，and only 260 million people live in tier1 cities（which can be called developed area）.So of course there are many faces in this country.
The city where Nico is located is the capital of Sichuan, China. The capital of each province in China has a much better economic development than other cities.
Don't trust the media too much, they only read scripts and video clips. I think vloggers and RUclipsrs who are directly at the source of the content are far more trustworthy.
It's no easy feat to lift 800 million people out of poverty & at the same time building crazy infrastructures that the rest of the world can only envy. Of course there are still poor people around just like any other country. But at the rate that China is going , it's going to be the greatest country on earth. China is truly the MASTER builder. From 🇸🇬.
As a person from Chengdu, I used to live in a community around Global Center but later I moved far from this huge building and right now am living in another community in eastern Chengdu. I missed the life when I was living around Global Center soooo much.
@@danpan001 Actually there's no needs for people to visit these foreign website (Since local apps bilibili, douyin... are more suitable for them to use). But if someone want to (like me), spending a little bit time to learn to use vpn is not a big deal.
Studying in Japan, missing my hometown so much😭,thanks for bringing this video to me. The football match in Chengdu is also interesting, recommend to you
To both, thanks a lot to show us so beautiful things in this wonderfull country that leaders in Washington called bad country, are they jealouse China?
This mall is already a relatively old one in Chengdu, and there is a new basement shopping centre called skp across the street from this mall with a brand new design that you can visit.
China is using investment to stimulate the economy. The government has invested money in infrastructure construction. On the one hand, it has narrowed the economic gap between the east and the west, and on the other hand, it has resolved domestic industrial overproduction. In the future, Chengdu will build the largest logistics center in Asia。 This is China's version of "Roosevelt's New Deal"
I miss my days in Global Center, they used to open the water park in winter, I still remember I used to go there with my brother, it had a warm water swimming pool and even a huge Turkey-style steam sauna underground.
I can empathise with you, Jack. At the height of the pandemic, our malls and shops inside were restricted in the no. of visitors. I took that chance to shop in peace, without the madness of bumping into people every few steps. Now that things are a bit normal, the crowds are back! Ironically, I like a less crowded mall at the height of the pandemic. It's less stress for the individual who doesn't enjoy having too many people around him/her.
genuinely surprised why Nico doesn't have a million subs? the effort that goes into shooting and editing these videos is insane! highly commendable and the china videos are the best - especially shanghai ones
Ich habe dieses Gebäude 2014 gesehen. Es ist extrem beindruckend. Ich kann sowieso jedem empfehlen dieses beeindruckende Land zu besuchen. Schnell wird man feststellen das in den deutschen Medien sehr viel Mist über China erzählt wird im sich selbst zu erhöhen. Ich habe viele sehr freundliche Menschen kennen gelernt. Msn kann sich überall frei bewegen. Es gibt selbst in Shanghai, einer extrem modernen Stadt, Viertel mit europäischem Flair aber auch sehr viel chinedischer Kiltur. Die Städte dind sauberer als in Deutschland. Die Züge picobello sauber genauso die Bahnhöfe.Und die Kultur ist ebenfalls überwältigend, nicht nur Chinesische Mauer oder die Verbotene Stadt, die Stsdtmauer von Xian , die Terrakottaarmee oder der ditzende Budda von Lishan. Aber such fie Teehäser mit ihren kulturellen Veranstaltungen ind nstürlich die Natur. China ist eine Reise wert !
0:53: 500m×400m =200,000sqm. Running 400m around a square field with 100m on each side is typical standard Olympic sprint. 100m × 100m is 10,000sqm. This is equivalent to 20 such fields. Total floor area is 1,700,000 sqm. That's 170 such fields.
I’d like to share my understanding of Chinese characters with people who are interested in Chinese. Chinese characters still retain their pictographic origins. Knowing what the characters look like originally can help understand the meanings and remember them. I’ve spent about 100,000 hours studying English humor and Western culture, and many years studying Chinese culture and jokes. My native language is Chinese.

enjoy your coffee and keep up the good work. but i think the largest building in the world is right here in edmonton - west edmonton mall😊😊😊 depending on the day and time to go there, west edmonton mall could look deserted also. love from canada.
Don't judge China in the standard of the Western world this mall is never the biggest. Chengdu has 30 million population, just imagine weekend or when Chengdu organizing an event there maybe 1-2% people visiting the mall. When China national holiday normally there will be 2 to 3 billion people traveling around the nation, hotspot city like Beijing Shanghai Guangzhou Chengdu etc will be full of traveller.
Once the Pentagon had the largest floor area of over 6 million square feet. In square meters, it is about 620,000. Thus, the Global Center is almost 3 times larger.
I was there last week. Noone speaks English. Sales personel was not friendly. I was scared to explore without any source of information. I mostly checked the shops close to the outer shell of the building. There were some rundown shops on the northern wall of the building. I do not make anything out of this place. You do not need to visit there if you do not speak Chinese.
China is NOT a developing country. It is a developed country with tons of millionnaires and a huge manufacturing base. In a country of 1.3B people, there will always be many hundreds of millions living in poor condition, mainly in the country side in order to provide the country with cheap food and serve in the army. On many aspects, China is more developed than European and North American countries. And does not have any of the insecurity issues and uncontrolled inflow of migrants.
When I saw you wearing that on your face... an instant kill for the video. No matter what's the topic or how interesting it may be when I see masks in a video immediately turns to shi...
LOL that horror movie of blades in the tunnel/pipe will forever haunt people who love those rides and ruin the fun for them for the rest of their lives.
