A photo essay on the Chinese city of Zibo<\/a>, in four parts (Zibo I<\/a>, Zibo II<\/a>, Zibo III<\/a>, Zibo IV<\/a> — best viewed in IE\/Safari\/Chrome, as some script there tends to upset Firefox), from Moving Cities<\/a>, who are doing some fascinating research on urbanism in China.\u00a0 Zibo is one of the many very large cities in China which I think I’m being fair in saying that most westerners have never heard of (when we made this map<\/a>, which shows only cities project to have over 5 million people by 2025, for our entry to the bracket competition, I was shocked at how many very large cities in China I’d never heard of).\u00a0 With somewhere between 2.75 and 3 million people in the city proper, Zibo’s city-center population is larger than that of every American city<\/a> but New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago and every city in the EU<\/a> but London, Berlin, Madrid, and Rome.<\/p>\n
