This article summarize the struggle that developers are having to sell homes in
Guangzhou. I was able to learn that the cause of this is because of the lack of space in
central Guangzhou and because of that developers are being forced to build in suburbs
and people do not want to live away from the city.

Guangzhou and how it differs to the rest of China metro systems. It turns out that
Guangzhou has almost all of the metro system underground which helps to keep
congestion at a low level. This is something that I could use on my website so that people
