Possibly the world's most epic city - Chongqing becomes Bladerunner at night. A tortured site where three mountain ranges and two major rivers meet (whose embankments are 180-450ft high) -it's riddled with 4,500 bridges.

This vid took 5 years to make. Full screen, high res to do it justice:

Its a gold channel. Best drone clips out there.

1) The Dronalist
2) Drone Fanatic

Those are two channels that are highly highly recommended.


Now for general street driving or tours (without any music) but just pure city sounds, raw in nature... a channel by the name of "J Utah".

Has a ton of cities, from Cairo to NYC to Rio to Instanbul and so on.

His NYC videos are quite good too. Recommend watching them at 2.0x speed for a tour of some areas (just due to the traffic).

Here's the whole NYC Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HaJ..._channel=JUtah


His London Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QI4_..._channel=JUtah

Dubai is an interesting city to drive through. I've never been to Cairo, but watching his clips made feel like I was there.

^thankyou for that link!

This vid starts in the no mans land between the commercial centre with all the sights (West End) and the officeland where skyscrapers were planted into the bombsites of a medieval heart (The City/ East End starting after St Paul's Cathedral).

The mix of old and new is quite something when you see it on screen, for example starting 34:10, or 23:44

Video Link


As reminder it covers only one of 3 major clusters and 3 smaller ones.

The Mind of Jae on YouTube has a bunch of drone videos from all over the world.

I'm partial to this one because it shows Greenville enjoying the rare treat of a sitting snowfall:

Video Link


Unfortunately, it's a few years old and doesn't show a lot of the newest construction downtown. For that you'll need this:

Video Link


...But even that one doesn't show off the newly-complete Camperdown project by the waterfall. In this video it's still under construction.

Personally I like how, as built up as it is, that stretch of the river beside the Peace Center looks like a canal.
