Server is a bit slow, and the pictures are around 1-4MB each.
The ones in the second row are AMAZING, 4481x948 panoramas!

Does even tokyo have as many huge skyscrapers packed into such a small area?

Those cities are much larger than hong kong. They are nowhere near as dense as HK.
Is there a top 20 on people/sq mile?

Hong Kong has a nice, modern, clean skyline. But I prefer New York City's gotham feel, a mix of old & new with classics (empire state building, chrysler building).

China's cities are going through a skyscraper boom.

Chonqing
Nanjing
Shanghai
Shenzen
Beijing
Beijing Development for Olympics
Beijing Development for Olympics 2
Singapore Taiwan

Shanghai has a nice skyline too, but its not packed together like HK, so it does not look as magnificent.
The thing is, cranes are still everywhere, in 10-15 years, it will have be one of the best skylines, if not the best due to its exponetial economic growth.

Wow those are fantastic pictures. :thumbsup:

I think that's early morning Fog, not smog.

I was looking for some other good skyline pics and found this guy's site. Hit enter, and then scroll across to the BC Canada gallery... dayum.

No its not the GG bridge if thats what you are getting at. I fish under the GG bridge pretty often and have scoured the Marin Headlands and the adjacent Fort Point/Lands End area. They tried to copy it pretty well though.
