That just sucks, except if you have a cardboard box or something thick and solid to cover the windows

Well, if you have a large amount of people and limitid surface area, up is the only way to go. It's hideous, but I can't think of an alternative that doesn't involve forcibly removing people.

I was confused at what's I'm looking at until I read the title, insane

Holy moly, I've never seen that many vehicles on a road before O_o

This would not mix well with my anxiety.

This reminds me of the road in China that's 50 lanes, but that merges into 4

Thought it was the GWB at rush hour.

Some idiot said Taylor Swift tickets went on sale...

faster to walk at this rate

and everyone honks their horns at the same time!

My chest tightens with panic just looking at this. I- I can't imagine having to experience this irl.

No, no, no, no! This triggers my anxiety!

Tall apartment towers, near employment, would prevent this

This could also have been labeled Los Angeles or Atlanta GA

Thought that was Atlanta for a minute. Looks like my daily commute! LOL

I've heard that they have traffic jams that last for DAYS!!!

No wonder they want to immigrate to other countries.

Aaaannndd, now we know why they are one of the biggest pollution makers in the world.

it's bc they drive on the wrong side of the road.

Gross

How does one get to be on the other side? Both seem to be heading the same direction.

Maybe if they add a few more lanes...

Looks like Manila

Needs more lanes. More lanes always fixes traffic problems. I’d go with at least a hundred.

Like LA... but worse

This is so inefficient 🥲

Are they celebrating Diwali or what?

Not a single green droplet of colour....

"Under the bridge downtown.. is where I drew some blood"

The vastness is astonishing

why even bother to hang up another sign? No one will read them ever

Well, that bridge is the most important transport link between Europe and Asia, no wonder it's busy.

"I live in the favela, I believe we can change it for the better" - heard this back in 2014 during the World Cup in Brazil. Loved it.

Not all is lost. Second picture is the Ransom Gillis Mansion. Believe it or not, this one is saved! See what is looks like now. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ransom_Gillis_House

It's as if some nasty alien ship landed.

We are clearly a infection on the Earth

Interestingly enough, there are probably another row of houses behind these ones that were all pissed off when the smaller red-roofed buildings were built too. This is why local government zoning rules need to be in concrete and not influenced by developers throwing huge amounts of money at them.

Can you imagine an elevator being out of order ?

Beautiful sky and greenery, the trash tho...

They still got a beach, water and trees. Not so bad.

The interesting thing for me, is that even with all those buildings there is a ton of green in the picture. Far more than you'd get in most cities.

I guess they didn't want to move when the freeway was being built

This looks like something straight out of a game

Reminds me of the robot fighting games from the film A.I.

Tokyo is both fascinating and nightmarish. I would really like to visit this city, but living there must be hell.

I find it cool, tbh. A great photo.

Vorkuta, town in Russia. "Vorkuta became one of the most well known Gulags, it gained a reputation of being one of the worst in the Soviet Union. About 2 Million Prisoners had gone to Vorkutlag from 1932 until the closure in 1962, the amount of deaths in the camp were estimated to be 200,000" - Wikipedia
