I thought this was video was really good except for the part about Suzhou. Southern China has had water and canals for a couple thousands of years. Also, the city doesn’t have any more Italian restaurants than any other big city in China does so I don’t think it’s accurate to say Suzhou is a copy of Venice because besides both having canals they are extremely different.
Exactly. the Suzhou canal (around 610) even have a longer history, compared to the Canal Grande (around 1300). The second point of suzhou is simply just not true at all. Also, in terms of the restaurant point, near the canal, or the old town Suzhou, there is barely any Italian cursine, not before and not now. In addition to that, Suzhou is a large city, and has the fifth economy in the whole country, so it is open to lots of different types of cursine form all over the world. You could find mostly every type of food you want in Suzhou.
yeah. but except that the rest of them are probably results of the latest blooming of housing estates. people grab a billion dollar or two, build some housings and get a ten folds returns. that is sick.

Well, as a Chinese architect I have to say10-15 years ago, many private developers wanted to introduce western especially European styles to China to show people a different life style. Many odd buildings were built but in the last 5-8 years, this wave has stopped. Nowadays young people ( yes in China young people buy their own condo at a very early age, usually before 30), prefer modern style, traditional Chinese style , modern-oriental style more.

Ccp 50 years later : Europe has cities like our country , must be our land .
Actually there’a little town that mimics Hallstatt in Nanning Guangxi, the town re designed the paths and the cathedral, which makes it easier to get around, it’s actually quite a nice place to live.
Great video thank you so much. Again perfect AUDIO and narration...too.
Glad you enjoyed it👌
TBH. Due to the increase anti-Chinese sentiment in Europe, I don’t blame the Chinese from not leaving the country to visit the replica cities instead.
Copying is not a bad thing. We only can appriciate the efforts of China for manufacturing west in the east.
If china wanted to build Washington DC they will do it
Chinese are hard working people
We do have a replica of the Parliament house of the USA
It is used as a film production base
I guess building Washington DC is easier than build any European cities that already mentioned
a lot of people said Made In China to a whole another level. But the True words are:
"This Took [Mom: We have _____ at home] to another level".
Each video better than the last! Good job!
Dude Suzhou have a much longer history than Venice, and Suzhou doesn't look like Venice at all🙄
Suzhou？Please do more research before you say that of Suzhou. Other city may be a copy but Suzhou cannot be.
Don't include Suzhou here. It is very old traditional Chinese city. It is not a copy cat!
this is exactly what I think I would get if I ordered one of these cities online
Reminds me of Epcot Center, Orlando Florida
You are doing work really hard respect 👍👍❤️❤️🙏🙏
Thanks 💪
Probably another way of stopping people from leaving the country to live a free and happy life, its pretty but theres most likely a dark reason behind it
the fact that this was recommended to me 15 minutes after this was released 😳
Who cares? Why are "oh interesting this was recommended to me" everywhere? UA-cam recommended something to you? Great observation how long has that been going on? 🤦♂️
Excuse me, Suzhou didn't replicate Venice. They have longer history..m
Lol imagine copying others western cities because the only thing you could build without copying would be ugly skyscrapers everywhere
How could you insult the Chinese nation this is your last day!!!! All hail the leader (I am obviously kidding or am i)
@@yattobaggins3124 🤣🤣
Shanghai and Macau has some pretty skyscrapers but many other cities just looks like a copy paste of each other. Maybe their intention was just to build home and workplace.
but still they are far better than us...and u know what, if we work harder than saying foolish things in the cmt section then our countys will develop a lot...it is true Currently China Has the power to fight against the whole world
@@lynx7593 of course they work harder they are fucking slaves of the Chinese government
Hippity hoppity,your landmark is now my property

6:01 that not traditional Venetian clothes and the city is older than Venice and the canals are older than the cities canals of Venice. idk where u got that the city was a copy of Venice. I've been to the city and I saw more McDonald's than Italian restaurants and most of the restaurants was traditional Chinese. Also the only Italian restaurant I saw was the chian restaurants of domino's and pizza hut which aren't Italian.
Hallstatt, Paris, and Venice are all in the Eastern Hemisphere.
Oh my gosh. Well done actually but I'm surprised they did this yet not surprised. Kinda good for those who are unlucky and cant travel
There is a village in Russia names Paris, It got a name in memory of Russian army marching into napoleonic Paris. Recently, some Electric working company made eiffel tower looking transmision tower
Kid: Hey mom can we go to Europe?
Mom: But son, we already have Europe at home.
The Europe at home:
A replica Will never have the history of the real thing so will never have the same feeling
This video was such a trip...!
Your building picture doesn’t stand up to a picture of a better designed building
"serving pasta that tastes almost exactly like that from Italy" - I strongly doubt that
Me. I want to visit France 🇫🇷
Ok bro me too
No Thanks
No one can copy the Eiffel tower, or the Statue of Liberty, they are pure classics
I think replica would be a better word for it
Nothing in America is "classic" .
The cheese in my fridge is older
@@peterherrington3300 oh are you sure? Heard about the fucking cars? Ford? Mustangs? Yeah, they are classics.
*Don't let insecure thoughts ruin something amazing!!*
Is not about ruining something looks great now,... But it's a concern about not to get ruined with something that had existed greatly for centuries ago.
I mean we know Asians are obsessed with Europeans/White People , also Europe and Asia are brother continents , our people mixed , collabed , liked and had relations with each other for centuries and now more than ever
This was super interesting! Keep these videos coming!
Interesting, great video
Glad you enjoyed it!
i think it well demonstrates how globalization can quickly export western culture around the world. another truth is....doing copycat projects is MUCH cheaper than creating an original architecture project. and that's also why you see lots copycat projects in china, especially in those second and third-tier small cities in China.
A wouldn’t be surprised if they copy the pyramids of Egypt lol 💀😂😂
Next time do a video about how westerns copied old iran sciences and their streets and old buildings with Persepolis since Elam through persia until 1590
Nice video!
Thank you!
There is a place which is known as the Venice of the east . Actual name is Alappuzha, Kerala, India . It's due to it's natural beauty .
Beautiful 😍 place
Expectation on participating in a fancy dress competition :
The reality :
Bit unfair to say suzhou is a copy of Venice since it was built hundreds of years before Venice, that's like saying the great Wall is a copy of hadrians wall.
Also, every western city has a Chinatown in it, china's basically doing the same but on a much larger scale
Chinatown is different things, they are inhabited by ethnic Chinese while any copycat of Western cities in China aren't inhabited by westerners
China can copy western city landmarks... But west cannot copy Chinese landmarks.... Shanghai pudong, shenzhen city, Great wall of China, many urban modern architecture.... These are only possible in China.
Now all westerns building based on old Persia and Greece , and the Persepolis were Persians too
i wonder if they will build a replica of the sydney harbor bridge or uluru maybe
so easy
China is that one kid that copies your own name while trying to copy your paper
*Now, I do kind of agree that they should probably stop copying...*
*Just Imagine, if they had a copy of Burj Khalifa*
*I don’t think people would be drawn to Dubai anymore*
Presenting Suzhou as a copy of Venice? Are you kidding me?
Why don't they build a White House in China?
Actually, there is a White House in China.
笑死我了
@@caocao4266 They have no shame. lol
I have one at home
There are so many white houses in China 🇨🇳 especially in Shanghai 😂
The copies are like Las Vegas but much bigger. But millions of Americans come to Las Vegas each year to enjoy "Europe" :)
if west have money they can also copy and build! Can they? They love architectures and promote foreigners to live in their origins country!
No they are just copying to get more tourists, that's sad.
No its illegal to copy cat cities in the u.s
Still no foreigners live there🤭
They know Europe is dying demographically. So they replicate what Europeans built.
Thanks for the video. Now I have ideas of places to visit on my summer break here in China!
It’s actually very simple because Chinese customer like foreign stuff even though the house looks like foreign country it’s not copying it’s kissing, but
