This is only really in the particularly touristy areas. Just walking around the nieghborhoods here you never encounter it.

Or markets, or the carts collecting recyclable appliances, or trucks backing up

There's noisy things outside the tourist areas but yeh igwym

Its probably the most obnoxious example, of course they have western style advertising too (sometimes worse when a whole skyscraper has an LCD ad on it, thats basically only reserved for NYC in the west, but in China there are many skyscrapers like this) in most of the cities, ads should be destroyed

Of course China has a lot of good things going for it but I find these things specifically jarring and terrible

I live in Chengdu and don't find it to be particularly heinous here, but I have heard it's different in places like Shanghai, Beijing, or Guangzhou.
