RE: The Ruins of a Magnitude 7.8 Earthquake in China

in #life7 years ago

@sjsbikes, the eeriness is still there! I'm not sure what it was but both times I've been to Tangshan, I did feel a little strange. There is something creepy/unsettling about that place. I did enjoy the memorial and what not, but you are absolutely right! I am sure Shijiazhuang would feel the same. Shijiazhuang has the worst pollution in China.

Air pollution is a big problem in Tangshan. The first time I went there, I had a big headache. The air was very clean this time I went. I wouldn't want to live in Tangshan because the air quality usually sucks.

Sort:  

Its a dark place, and not just because of the pollution. It was (still is?) one of those places where you are either a rock star or an alien, almost everyone is always watching you, it can be unsettling if you're not used to it.

Most of it is just curiosity, as the only experience of western culture some of these people have is from television or or what they see on-line. In bigger cities its not too difficult to encounter people from different cultures, so its a bit easier to blend in.
