There are some funky smells, and you get used to not being able to see more than 30 yards at best. But the part you cannot understand until you see it in person is what that many people really looks like. In Utah, you can pass all the "skyscraper" type buildings in a few minutes in a car. In China, I was on high speed train for 3 hours and it was skycrapers the entire way.
Well, to be fair, Utah is not exactly a high population state. LA, New York, Miami, Houston, Dallas are more along the lines of what you might see in China.
Granted, some of the bigger cities in China have footprints bigger than even our biggest cities, but they do have a lot more people than us.
Comparing SLC to Beijing is, well, more than a bit unfair of a comparison.
I lived in NYC for 10 years. Went on a business trip to Sao Paulo Brazil. That city is 5 times larger than NYC. Couldn't believe how big it was. Beijing is way bigger than Sao Paulo.
How many cigarettes do you estimate you passively smoked in China? I have heard the smell is the first thing to hit you when you get off the plane.

I understand that. I was trying to think of a small city. But a train going 300mph would blow through Manhattan pretty quick.
