This is absolutely stunning. Can you imagine any major, modern North American city doubling its population in a mere decade? It's one thing for a booming 19th century manufacturing center like Cleveland to add 30% to its 300,000+ population in a decade. But to add millions of people in a single decade? That's crazy!

China's birthrate has been low for a while so I'm going to assume it's the rural areas emptying out then?

This kind of density is something else, but I would like to see significant green public areas like parks, etc. 

There does not seem to be enough for me. I think you get rid of individual green space(like grass yards)so you can ever greater density and have collective green space.

 

*These pics are hypnotic I will admit. I wish I knew which pic belonged to which city.
