The Chinese high-speed railways have a quality all on its own. Tier 1(一线) c like Beijing have a couple hundred high-speed trains stopping at the city every day.

    China's (科技) on building the railway is leading the rest of the world. There is no sign that any country could be better than China in near future. I had my (第一次) opportunity to ride the high-speed trains last week when I had a business meeting in Zhengzhou.

    As someone w grew up with a disdain (偏见) for public transportation (not sure why the US hates it so much), I was afraid the experience. I hoped to fly, but was told that it would be much better if I (乘) the train.

    The train was amazing. I had traveled on a train before in the US, and hated how s it was and how many stops there were. Chinese high-speed trains are on a different level. The trains are clean and the seats are huge. You can't even (感觉) how fast the train is moving. If there were no windows, I wouldn't be a to tell when we were stopped or when we were traveling at 300 km/h—it is that smooth.

    I'm traveling again this week by train and I'm excited.
