So I did some googling and looking at the map and I think the reason why Chongqing is the largest city is because of the difference of how Tokyo and Chongqing and is divided. Greater Tokyo could be classed entirely as a proper city (it's a single continious mass deep inland), but considering how it formed, it's made up of smaller cities. Greater Tokyo in my opinion is still the largest city, but only by 5 million. It's odd how many unknowm 20-30M cities China has

[@bumblebeegamerreal]

Well actually, China does have a great culture and friendly people like other countries, its just that there are issues with their government. Its like that with every country regardless Edit: I am aware I started an entire war in the comment section. I never intended to start a war. I agree with the OP that there are many interesting things about that country. I am aware that of course, China isnt as much as a cyberbunk dystopia that many westerners claim. However, its important to recognize there are problems with the government and that holds true for every country in the world. Maybe yes, you can claim people are satisfied with their government, but as long as they can fullfill their basic needs; they wont question anything else. The reason why other countries are facing opposition from their people is because they let the cracks slip through. I respect your opinion if you think the government is good. After all, it is subjective. However, be mindful and think before you bash on me and say I spread "stereotypes" or immediately compare to the US. I dislike people who act like there are only two sides to the situation - that I have to pick one side and get flammed by the other. I either have to side with one country and attack the other. Its easy for people to shamlessly press the like button on ad hominems and attacks You assume that I side with the US just because I say that, but have you even considered that I disagree with both of their political systems? Have you considered that you can still appreciate a country whilst understanding its flaws? Have you considered that I'm not even from the west at all? Even people from the east do understand there are problems with their government. You act like United States is the only country with big problems, when many countries have problems just as big as the United States. You just never hear about it. Japan may look "kawaii", but it has a toxic work culture and insane levels of perfectionism. South Korea may look amazing, but it has perfectionism problems and corruption from Samsung You also act like western media is the most evil and biased media, but even non-western media is just as biased, but in different ways. My point is that there is no such thing as "best country" or "X country does it better than anyone". Everyone has their good and bad moments and we should hold them to fair standards If someone sugarcoats how good the United States is and someone comments about "how the eastern media is simply too biased". You would obviously disagree, because you seen the homeless and corruption I do agree that the media can be biased at times, but just because they are does not mean legitimate criticism with evidence should be undermined

[@user-me7zp5hu7b]

Many foreigners came here and made the videos about this super huge city, but I would say you are the best one who did the great narrative with the history of it, loved it so much, subscribed 👍👍👍

[@chaosflor2034]

I'm sorry, but its not quite true that Chongqing is thelargest city in the world by population and area. Its because Chongqing is an administrative region that includes a massive area with many rural parts and small towns. When comparing just the urban populations, cities like Tokyo and Shanghai are much larger. Similarly, in terms of the actual urban area, cities like New York and Beijing are bigger. So, while Chongqing's administrative region is indeed vast and populous, its actual urban core isn't the largest by either population or area.

[@HelloOnepiece]

Its a good example of why "largest city" is a meaningless comparison, as what we define as one city is not really consistent. Chongqing and Paris are the polar oppposites. Chongqing administration includes many rural areas as you defined, meanwhile Paris refuses to officially extend (like Berlin for example), thus the official city is deceively small tiny compared to the urban area. And tokyo is a whole another mess

[@archorblx1130]

its impossible to make the whole chongqing connected because of the mountains seperating it

[@alittlebitgone]

@@archorblx1130 Yes, but 70% of the residents live in rural areas, it's not a city.

[@Wolfremmi]

@@HelloOnepiece Considering Berlin already is a citystate, it doesnt make sense to expand as it would then interfere with the state surrounding it. Maybe i misunderstood what you tried to say though.

[@HelloOnepiece]

@@Wolfremmi Thats exactly what I meant though, in case of Berlin they expanded its administrative zone, since this way it was easier to manage workers coming in from nearby villages. In a sense Berlin ate up parts of Branderburg. I think it is the most noticeable in Spandau, where aside from the U bahn line, for everyday people, life is still like in an independent small town.

From Mainland China: Your video, because it featured a visit to a "commercial KTV," has gone viral on some social media platforms in Mainland China. People are amazed that you have "learned the core technology" (commercial KTVs are not for general public entertainment 🤣 Sorry, I can only say this much; others in the comments might need to figure out what I mean by themselves). It's clear that you did thorough research because I don't think an ordinary tourist would know about the existence of commercial KTVs, let alone how to get in 🤣. I watched the whole video, and it was very well made with excellent editing and storytelling. Looking forward to your next video, and I hope you visit other places too-there are many interesting differences between various places of China.

Someone moved your video to China's social software, and many people liked you and your video. Maybe you can add subtitles to your videos, and when you go to a certain country, you can also add local languages, such as Chinese and English subtitles when you come to China, then I believe you will get more page views and fans, because you have a particularly good editing skills.Love u man，hope u stay more days in China

Many here say Tokyo is the world's largest city. They use the false information from two unreliable sources, Google and Wikipedia where anyone can write and edit. As far as population goes, better to look at official statistics put out by the government. According to both the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the Japanese government, Tokyo City has a population of 14,099,993 within its ADMINISTRATIVE TERRITORY, as of 2023.

50 $ for a luxury hotel room and 1300 for a karaoke. That says a lor about how weird can china be. Piter best youtube storyteller!

[@lobospoutany1]

I dont believe those 1300 euro, especially with Pavel, he live in China almost 15 years, I live in China more then 2 year, was on karaoke and we paid around 15 euro for one hour (without girls) I dont know what they did with those girls there, but even if they were a "light girls" so its still tooooo much

[@focuses168]

@@lobospoutany1 The karaoke with and without girls are different business in China. With girls calls "Business karaoke", they for the business guys who want to enjoy the partners. Without girls calls "Mass Sales karaoke“, they for normal people have fun with friends and families. The business karaoke always very expensive, you have to pay a lot for girls and service, arround 2k-3k RMB for one guest as average.

[@Jadecatcafe]

Karaoke self is very afordable like this in China. The price dieffrence is the special service and Alcohol.

[@jjing6548]

I believe Peter and his mates drank some very expensive Chinese liquor (Maotai probably) thinking it's just cheap Vodka

[@大魚]

Pete went to a 'business karaoke', which is different from popular karaoke. He needs to pay extra money to those girls because it's like asking them to accompany you to drink, so he has to pay them extra labor costs. This is normal in China

[@Zhuahanjian]

Haha, I saw your video on TikTok in China. The production was very entertaining and professional. welcome to China. Each province in China has a different style. Chongqing is a medium-paced city. If you prefer a slower pace, there are plenty of cities. You can also choose a city based on your favorite food, such as meat and seafood. You can also choose a city based on your favorite weather. If you encounter problems, you can turn to anyone for help, but you need to use a translator to communicate with them. You don’t need to worry about safety issues at any time and anywhere in China. I wish you a happy journey.

[@alinaqirizvi1441]

37-38M actually

[@rehurekj]

well actually, due its size its population density is under 400people per km2, same like Belgium or Philippines, less than Netherlands or Israel or South Korea, well below Taiwan and 3times smaller than Banglades( even 7ordinary Chinese provinces have same or higher population density than this so called city). So if we consider Chongqing a city then the largest city on the planet is actually India with its population density above 400. You can't beat "city" with almost 1and half billion people.

Chongqing is one of the four *municipal cities of China together with Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai. It is unofficially* a first tier city. Chongqing (pronunciation - Chon-chin) is an ancient city. I was there in 1992...seeing your video I can see that the city has progressed so much beyond my expectation, I will revisit it again.

It is totally worth to visit Chongqing when you decide to travel in China.
