it is the most expensive urban village i just saw a mouse running around beyond my imagination more cramped and more dense hello good morning i'm still in Guangzhou this is my last day in Guangzhou and i want to visit the biggest urban village in Guangzhou but i kinda get lost right now when i use the navigation and it got me here so it just got me so confused it's not urban village this talking like modern city and then i ask someone the local people and he told me okay uh this one is a like a smaller urban village there's nothing just a residence area but if i want to go to the urban village Shipai villiage which is like a five hundred meters away so i'm heading to the biggest urban village i'm on my way but i was still surprised by you know how modern it is just not far away from the biggest urban villiage so check out the surroundings i just can't believe so there is the biggest urban village just in nearby so that's surprising finally i got here let me show you this one and you know on the road of the two sides is a totally different world check out the other side on the right side is highest buildings the skyscrapers is crazy but only like thirty meters this side it's urban village but this village is kind of special it's the biggest urban village and also with the longest history so people also say it is the most expensive urban village it is surrounded by highest buildings and also like super fancy shopping malls also the most prestigious university i gonna do a little bit challenge like ten dollar challenge and yeah let's check it out together like it with ten dollars which is equivalent to around more than 70 yuan so check it what can we buy yeah i'm so looking forward yeah right now it s noon today it s also super super super sunny and super hot so i heard about like most of the people here they're migrant workers from all over China because the living expenses here is much cheaper it's way cheaper but also with the established transportation and also the hospital the the college so the infrastructions around here is amazing all that restaurant just opened i think in the night is much more vibrant compared now uh people still are sleeping people just at vacants or at vacation 人们只想多睡一会儿,多休息一会儿 and get rest more people usually get hang out at the night not hard so but there are still a lot going on let's just check it out and i heard a lot of the local people we could get lost in the urban village yeah i'm pretty sure i have no sense of direction i am pretty sure i'm i'm getting lost but it doesn't matter i found this i found this primary school just into the urban village yeah it's a nice primary school i found something crazy i know the handshake building or the kissing building but i didn't realize how close it is it is just a side by side let me show you this one can you see that one the orange one and also the white one it's definitely just side by side there is no extra room between the two buildings so there's no sunshine at all in the urban village you have to pay extra money for the sunshine or for the balcony oh that's pretty harsh like i don't know how does this work let's get inside and check out have a look a little bit oh so this is a price here like the big and smaller single room it's like a studio as the price is between 600 yuan to wow to 8500 thousand five hundred this one one living room and one bedroom is 1000 yuan and 1300 yuan so the price here is very affordable so it is explained why the migrant workers they choose to live here when they first time came to guangzhou for earn money wow this is crazy this is all socks it's selling oh so here in this area we can still see the sunshine though there are a lot of prices about the rain but in this area it's totally dark i just smell you up some uncomfortable this is beyond my imagination Ahhh it's just pretty pretty dark even no extra room for the sunshine to come through and so in the first floor there are the motorbikes electronic scooters just park here and also like the cables and they charge through here through the windows it's kind of dangerous right because the electronic scooters is kind of dangerous it always happened to the accident like the fire but inside i think everyone's room is still very clean and organized have a look at all the cables it's a little bit messy but it's still organized yeah and is i didn't expect this even in in the urban village we still got these infrastructures for people who live in here at the tennis table and also the playground for playing basketball so people still have have activities and have doing exercise and sports so i yeah it's not that so bad this is still very clean Welcome. Welcome. the barber shop and also the hotel apartment and a lot of business going on the small vendors a convenience store oh i'm already lost but as long as i can get out it's okay oh it's pretty easy for the grocery shopping it's just a nearby it's just go downstairs and you can get everything there's a supermarket there's a grocery shopping store it's super super convenient the fresh veggies the corn oh so it's just in front of the stores and the price here is cheaper it's much cheaper also the fruit the fruit store is a supermarket and the dragon fruit 10 yuan for five pieces this is our fruit area yeah it's very fresh and then let's go inside oh this is snacks area instant noodles and this is smelly rice noodles that's good price all the snacks yes a little fish it's 4.9yuan spicy stripes yeah this is spicy stripes and are my favorite snacks in my childhood is very popular in China and everyone love latiao it's a spicy flavor it's more than spicy just so flavorful potato here is five yuan per one and a half kilo yeah i have to say the price here it's so cheap it's very friendly price at a supermarket you could get everything and it s super clean the street oh Sorry, scraped this off me.
directly hahaha Laughing to death it's very narrow he just yeah just got this from my backpack so i must be very careful and otherwise maybe my cup just disappeared i don't know why i decided to look something to eat it's my lunch time ah like the rental prices is everywhere even right now it's daytime it's super sunny but i just couldn't feel it oh my god it's crazy the crazy motorbikes everywhere but you could like you go anywhere you can smell the cooking you know the food there is still a lake take at how dense these buildings are and also there's still a kindergarten it's just opening here this kindergarten is kind of small a very small one there is a convenience store behind me and then i'm super thirsty i need to buy some drinks yes let's check out this little convenience store i would love to have this one the flower tea it really cools me down hmm have to say it's not easy to live here here compared to Shenzhen urban village this is more dense and it's very hard to get out i don't know i just who keep walking and i wanted to find some restaurant to eat my lunch but i hadn't it seems like i'm in the residential area not much business going on i don't know just to keep going yes why it is so so crazy you know guangzhou developed so early has a long history and also the only entrance trading with the world in Qing dynasty so Chinese people from other cities just flock to guangzhou to make money there are a lot of opportunities and also they need cheap places to live the urban village that's why it is built because the land of these houses they just try build more and more so they can rent out more they can make money more it makes this priority of that time is just to develop the economy so the government management and the land management is not so strict, people they just build more and more buildings they just don't care if you get the sunshine or not they just want to make money they just want to rent as more as possible but it is hard to say um it has a lot of pros and cons the counts is a living situation but the pros is also huge like the living prices but the pros is also huge like the living prices the average people they can find a place in this mega city and they could get the service the infrastructures around here it's like the transportation and the commitments of life especially the last generations they are very frugal they know their purpose they come to here they come to here just before making money just to find an opportunity to make a fortune so it doesn't matter like what situation they are living actually sometimes they just thinking okay it is just a place they sleeping and they usually didn't stay in the room at daytime so they just want to save as much as possible to their family to support their family and to save for the future so in the world the human resilience is out of imagination so it's not only Chinese but also the human around the world no matter where you put them and they can always survive this is life this is average people live in guangzhou WeChat receives 15 yuan. oh my god okay i got it done it's okay maybe i just got a few i don't need a lot just myself i got three it's not easy to find a restaurant i want to try and then i just found one this is the beef noodles it seems like nice yeah let't go inside my lunch the speciality is beef noodle so i got one i got this one this is egg rice wine so i got one i don't have no question and bean sprouts got one persimmon very big one it takes only two yuan i also got three oranges it took me four yuan i can smell it mmm wow it's good hmm i love persimmon wow the beef noodles wow wow the beef noodles wow looks like amazing a big potion let me just have a bite yeah let's go wow the noodles is quite chewy i love this one and i ordered the medium spiciness it's not so spicy just right i love this it's very flavorable how about this one it's a little bit sweet but also the alcohol flavor ah super hot okay i have to wait oh i gonna enjoy my noodles my beef noodles wow see you later oh my god i just saw a mouse it's running around there are still like a lot of pharmacy yeah it is only zero point 0.7 seven square kilometers with more than 10000 yeah ten thousand people living inside here so that s why it s just so crazy i think the guangzhou government would consider to demolish this area but there are a lot of factors need to take into consideration it's not easy even right now in 2024 is still existing it's just so big so massive it's not easy just to demolish like a hundred or thousand people where they need to go so that's a big issue and a big problem the government should consider also more important one is the government need to give a lot of money to the owner of the land suddenly rain it's just a suddenly rain raining about our ten dollar challenge there is still four dollar left so yeah i'm just looking around to check out is there anything else i'm so interested i want to buy and i want to try surprised because there is a MIxue the chain brand and the drinks around here so let's just get one the Chinese very popular brand i just decided to give up about the drinks i can t just drink a lot because i need to go to the bathroom otherwise then i ask around and there is no bathroom in this area and they use the bathroom just at their home after a while of raining it's all wet oh the suit durian oh this is a fake one oh this is a durian only for durian OK This smells good It's so crispy.
This is the crispy duck. finish my challenge just got the whole roasted duck oh and i tasted it is very flavorful and very the yeah it's very crispy yeah i'm glad so the ten dollar challenge is successful i could get a lot overall it is very affordable price and also a lot of restaurant and some of them are very nice and clean but some of them maybe a little bit messy or just too cramped so this is the average people they are living here every day is just a lot of things going on the young people they have dreamed and this is just some temporary living places yeah so right now the Guangzhou's biggest urban village tour is Gonna end here i'm heading out under to find the metro station yeah so i'm on the way to heading out i ask ah you have to ask someone because just for yourself you couldn't find what's what's the exit so i'm lucky i'm not very far from the exit just a few steps so and also overall this place by the way is beyond my imagination it's so different i thought it was i would like be in shenzhen but to be honest it's more cramped and more dense so guangzhou is a very nice city i still love guangzhou
