to the question of if the verticality is the answer to future of cities: not everywhere. a lot of places are rather expanding outwards, than upwards, and surely there are lot of NIMBY's in many places ( especially in US), however I believe that dense urbanism is more sustainable, with dense low and mid-rises, also walkability is very important aspect in the cities. However there will surely be more vertical urbanism in the future, especially in City Centres and surely it looks cool!
Great point! I agree that dense urbanism, with a balance of low and mid-rises, plays a crucial role in sustainability and enhancing walkability, which is key for livable cities. Verticality, especially in city centers, definitely has its place, and as you mentioned, it looks incredible! I think the future will see a blend of both-cities expanding outward in some regions while others push the boundaries of vertical living and design. It's fascinating to see how different urban models evolve around the world. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
chongqing only developed a distinct identity because of its non negotiable landscapes, not because of its architecture. architecturally its still very much an identity-less non place as most international cities are.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! While Chongqing's landscape plays a huge role in its identity, from our experience when we visited the city, we didn't feel it as a "non place." Its mix of cultural and modern architecture reflected a very unique identity for us. In fact, it was one of the most shocking cities we visited in China.
I actually haven't heard about this city. Your video has left me really stunned. And the questions you put on the table are quite concerning for the near future in other countries all around the world. Only time will tell...
Thanks for watching! We're glad the video made an impact-Chongqing is definitely a city worth knowing about. You're right, these questions about urbanization and the future are important for cities worldwide. Time will tell!
I cannot even fancy how it should be living in such a populated city... Maybe are we completely losing the contact with nature? A lot of questions on this kind fo urbanistic developments...
Thanks for your thoughtful comment! It's definitely a unique experience living in a city like Chongqing, with its dense population and vertical growth. While it may seem overwhelming, many of these urban developments are actually incorporating green spaces and sustainable design to reconnect with nature, even in such a massive city. Balancing urbanization and nature is a big challenge, but it's something that cities like Chongqing are working towards.
@@ahmedzakikhan7639 Thanks for your comment! We believe parks are essential in cities, they provide a much-needed balance between urban life and nature. Even in a city, access to green spaces improves the quality of life and well-being. It’s all about creating a healthy environment for everyone, whether you're drawn to the city or nature.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Our channel focuses on showcasing the incredible architecture, design, and modernization happening in China. We aim to highlight the innovation and creativity within the field of architecture, regardless of political perspectives. Everyone is welcome to appreciate the art and craftsmanship behind these cities!
I'm sorry but please check our description, there you will find all the sources from where we got the materials. We also use our own content and animations. Regarding the comments, they are real people, but it's an interesting idea the fact that you can comment on your own video. Thank you for sharing.
We are glad you found our video cool. We only talk from the perspective of things we experienced ourselves while living in China. We are architects and we are trying to share the architectural point of view. If you are also an architect or related, we are open to exchanging ideas!
@@ahmedzakikhan7639 Actually, the municipality of Chongqing is the largest city in the world by population, though Chongqing is not the most populous urban area. The municipality has over 30 million, this number includes its large rural population. In 2020, Chongqing surpassed Shanghai as China's largest municipality by urban population; as of 2022, it has an urban population of 22.8 million.
Great video
Thank you!

Chinese cities are living in 2070 already
Indeed, some of them look like they come from the future!
I cannot even fancy how it should be living in such a populated city... Maybe are we completely losing the contact with nature?

The city should have parks just like anywhere. If people like nature they shouldn't be living in a city.

Chongqing is like 30 mil people in size, its just mind boggling.
It was indeed mind-blowing when we visited the city but actually, when you are there, you don't feel the scale. It just seems like another big city.
Because of land area ? Am sure Shang Hai is the largest in terms or urban population
