Guiyang Huaguoyuan 贵阳花果园, known as China’s largest residential property, can live more than 500,000 people.

Replying to @IDoTheThinking
I think Chinese rules about access to green spaces (and sunlight angles?) are also quite harmful for walkability. (But definitely agree that the urban highways in Shenzhen and Beijing are overbuilt.)
