Modes of transportation: not all bikes anymore
Pictured is one of the few places where I found lots of bicycles. What used to be the main mode of transportation has now been replaced by cars. It seems that in the past 5 years or so, every household has (or has access to) a car. And what I've noticed more this time around is how many more luxury cars are on the road. The most popular ones are Mercedes and Lexus. It's great that everyone has a car but it poses a major traffic and parking problem. Apartment buildings are not built for parking lots so some will charge an average of 3000 RMB / year for a parking spot. As far as the traffic problem, I'm not sure how and when that'll be resolved. But it is a major problem causing major jams everyday!
