Yeah I have no idea what's wrong with East Asian cities. Taipei can be ugly, but damned if it isn't convenient to get around. The transport network there puts any western city I've been to of similar to size to shame. As for Hong Kong, not only does it have great public transport as well, but it's also strikingly good looking.
Can't speak for Bangkok though, but Taipei and Hong Kong have incredible transport systems.
- emodendroket 10y agoWow, weird that some of the richest cities in the continent would be nice.
- altern8tif 10y agoIt might be simplifying it a bit here, but are cities well-planned because they're rich, or are they rich because they are well-planned?
- ghaff 10y agoCloser to the former. Both Hong Kong and Singapore were rich trading ports long before subways and meaningful city planning.
