        TBF, it is the capital of the province, the most well developed part of it. Part of the problem with unequal development in China has been that the cities have been heavily developed like this, while the countryside has lagged behind. Thankfully, that seems to be changing now and the CPC’s current goal seems to be to reduce unequal development as much as possible, so we might start to see small towns looking this well developed in about 10-20 years.

      That bookstore at the beginning got me almost to tears ngl, not only it’s the best damn looking bookstore i ever seen but i bet it isn’t filled to the brim with anticommunist rot unlike every single one in Poland.

      Also, how are the book prices in China? In Poland they literally went 50-100% up over last year, and they weren’t cheap to begin with.
