Shanghai Tower reaches for sky and record

That's called diversity, China allows some cities to build skyscrapers and some not. for instance, Beijing, can not have skyscrapers.

Tall skyscrappers are nice, but noting compared to ancient chinese architecture like forbidden palace, or summer palace.

China should think of ways to blend traditional chinese architectures with modern skyscrappers.

We want the city without many of sky scrapers. Let think twice about the name. SKY-SCRAPER.

In my district, the limit is 7 storey.

Other Chinese cities are even changing faster

Shanghai is a historic international city. It was the first in Asia before WWII brought it down to shame and sequence events led to a halt but Shanghai is back to being the pinnacle of Asia's financial district.

Beijing is also very cultural and spacious. If people want to live in a fast-pace, vibrant city, then Shanghai, my beautiful home, is the place to go. I personally put Shanghai as my top choice to live. I am bs because it is my hometown. LOL
