China's record number of vacant houses and urban projects, sitting at over 50 million units and growing, is an increasingly worrying domestic challenge. Known as "ghost cities" these developments have created a housing bubble representative of decades of Chinese progress — but also turmoil. The phrase "ghost city" might imply a city that was once full of life and now
abandoned. But China's ghost cities are brand new, and their high-rises never populated. Many had remained that way for years, byproducts of rapid economic growth that continue to plague the nation's urban planning strategy. In this video, we will take you on a virtual tour of China's ghost cities, how they came to be, and what will become of them.
