One of the most striking things that you see in China are the HUGE apartment buildings and complexes. Some of these buildings are 50-, 60-, and even 70-stories high. Just imagine what happens when the power shuts off and the elevators stop running! It is obvious that this is the only way to house all the people, but I can't imagine what it would be like living in one of these places!
