  • Discussion keeps the world turning.

  • This is Round Table.

  • You're listening to Roundtable.

  • I'm Neo Honglin, joined by Steve and Li Yi.

  • Coming up, you might think that exploring a wealthy neighborhood is something reserved for real estate agents, but think again.

  • Young people are turning these high end communities into weekend hangouts.

  • Who needs tourist traps when you have luxurious pools, gyms and really nice gardens right in your own city?

  • It's a fun, accessible way to unwind.

  • But it also hits a deeper cultural shift in how we approach leisure.

  • So let's dive into this emerging trend and see what it's all about.

  • Why bother traveling to crowded tourist spots when the finest enjoyment are just around the corner?

  • Forget international travel or popular scenic spots.

  • Young people today are choosing reserve tourism, spending their weekends exploring all kinds of residential communities, especially the high end ones.

  • With scenic gardens, fancy gyms and outdoor pools that rival five star hotels.

  • These gated communities offer a taste of the good life without breaking the bank.

  • So when it comes to this particular topic, one thing very interesting is the idea of community areas or residential community area in China.

  • That was going to be question number one for me.

  • This is something that I haven't learned about just yet.

  • So please do tell me, when you say community, what exactly are you talking about?

  • I think it's more like an apartment complex area here in China.
