Q: What's the saddest, most soulless big city you've been to in China?
For me it's a tie between Tianjin and Shenzhen.
14 years 16 weeks ago in Transport & Travel - China
agreed Tianjin is a sad sad place to be. Shenzhen though is quite good I thought mainly due to the HK factor.
Shaoxing. I couldn't even describe that hellhole. Try spending a few months there sometime.
Mr_spoon:
I just remembered my school trip there last semester!
It was so boring and... sad and soulless...
i think every city is soulless in china for foreigners.
Another vote for Wuhan. That is the armpit I live in now.
Xpat.John:
I have lived in multiple cities and Wuhan is at the bottom of my list. As you said, there are almost no signs of life or personality there. Even the expat community is one of the weakest I have known. If I didn't have to live there, I most certainly wouldn't.
I have yet to experience a soulless city in China. But I would have to say Beijing is probably the worst place I've experienced
Also currently escaping from Tianjin. Only seven weeks left!!
