Dear MEL Topic Readers,
China built more skyscrapers in 2018 than ever before
Another record year for China and for the world. 88 skyscrapers, a tall building whose height exceeds 200 meters, have been constructed in China alone. The number represents a little over sixty percent of all the skyscrapers built in the world during the year. To your surprise, 14 of the 143 skyscrapers completed around the world were in Shenzhen, part of the Pearl River Delta megalopolis north of Hong Kong. The city of Shenzhen was formed only four decades ago and was established as the first special economic zone in 1980. It is now a mega city of electronics, high-tech, and IT industries.
With this many tall buildings, a lot of hyper-speed elevators must be in operation in China. Also, China has the largest high-speed railroad network in the world. If you want to enjoy riding high-speed vehicles vertically or horizontally, China is the place to go.
Enjoy reading and learn about China’s passion to grow higher.
