An Updated 'China Ghost Cities' Documentary from SBS TV Australia

There was a short documentary shown here in Australia in 2011 which apparently two million people have viewed since, well the guy who did that has put out a follow up shown on the 10th September. It goes through the usual culprits, Ordos, The Shopping Mall, Paris Town and one other. It was only a two year gap between his visits so I was not surprised very little had changed.

Visiting recently build cities/malls to me was not so exciting (I’ve been to all the above back in 2010), and have found it more insightful to go see the villages that are on the process of being abandoned by the local residents because the local government going to redevelop the area. That's when you get the faded old poster of Mao still glued to the living room wall.
