    Wow. This library would be a tourist destination in Canada. LOL China is building some of the best infrastructure in the world these days. Kudos to their architects and engineers.

      it`s actually not a "worker`s class library" but Nanjing`s main library, a city 0f 10 million people.

    It's good China built more library for its people to learn. Can also be a place to relax. I notice that this library also built higher above ground. Somebody has to walk up stairs to reach the entrance.

      Maybe two elevators are available for people to move from the ground level to the lobby area.

      It says “eastern door “ , so there are more than one entrance.

    • @middlekingdomproductions
      @middlekingdomproductions  4 місяці тому +5

      There are at least three entrances. The East gate takes you to the ground level 1 floor where they have the coffee shop, event rooms and the Children’s library. You can use escalators next to the East door to go up to the higher floors or the lifts. There’s no real need to climb up all the stairs to that entrance but the design looks much better that way

    I notice, in your video, many books with titles in English. Do many also have English text as well? I'm trying to find books about the Chinese government structure in English by PRC authors. The only ones I've read were written by American scholars and have a bias I'd like to avoid.

    • @middlekingdomproductions
      @middlekingdomproductions  4 місяці тому +2

      Hi John, no, even with English titles, they are all in Chinese. I’ll have a look for you on some Chinese stores and see if I can find anything in English.

      I hope《Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order: Why Nations Succeed and Fail》and 《Governing China: From Revolution Through Reform》can help you (Not Chinese writer). 《置身事内》is a good book which explains how Chinese goverment govers the coounty and why in this way, but I don't find a English version for you.

      It’s in Pukou district of the city so a less wealthy district. There is some working class and middle class housing in the area. I have a future video in a more middle class area and this one is closer to working class areas 😁
