What's it like to overlook cities all over the world from high altitude?

We live all over the world, and some even live in major cities for decades, but are you sure you really know your city? AirPano, a team of Russian photographers, shows people the gap between major cities in the world with its unique perspective. Where is it? This is Dubai today. You may not know that 50 years ago, it was still a desert, poorer than the worst rural areas in China. It only took 50 years!

Guess where this "low bungalow" is. Yes, this is Vancouver, Canada. I don't know if it's the concept of vast territory and sparsely populated or something else. The tallest building here is 200 meters, followed by two "tall buildings" of 150 meters.

Paris, what did you see from the aerial photography of the Arc de Triomphe? An eyeball? This place where western cultures meet shows the unique charm to the world.

Venice, a water city, is a Neijiang river running through the city. Built by water, thriving by water, it is also the only city in the world that doesn't need cars.

As we all know, Red Square in Moscow is an absolute military restricted area. The AirPano team expressed the idea of shooting to Putin with trepidation. Unexpectedly, this iron-fisted man readily agreed and accompanied them to complete the shooting task.

Tokyo, Japan was rated as the fourth largest economic and financial center in the world and the third in the world city index (Asian champion). But because of environmental factors, there are no tall buildings here.

Barcelona, an ancient city with rich culture. The most famous work of the famous architect Antoni Gaudi-Sagrada Familia Church is here. It is also the most famous "uncompleted residential flats" in the world. It has a history of 135 years since it was built, and it is still under construction. The official forecast is to be completed in 2026.

Las Vegas, yes, is what you know as Las Vegas. But you may not know that gambling is forbidden in the central area here, but the most famous casinos are in the suburbs.

Unlike other cities, new york has a huge green lung. People call it "Central Garden" and Manhattan is built around it. According to the master designer, this design concept is at least 500 years ahead of the world.

China and Hongkong are the products of the collision between British culture and China culture. Because it is the result of land reclamation, there are no mountains here, which belong to typical coastal hills. Hong Kong Island and Kowloon Peninsula are the most prosperous areas, and they are also the locations of many TV movies. As can be seen from the aerial photos, the gap does exist. But seeing the gap is also a part of progress, and achieving transcendence is also on the way, don't you think?
