Chongqing ranks first on the List of Cities with the Most Super High-Rise Residential Buildings in China, according to a recent report with more than 2,200 super high-rise residential buildings. It was followed by Wuhan, Chengdu and Xi'an. [Photo by Zhang Kunkun/For chinadaily.com.cn]

The report said the number of super high-rise residential quarters in Chongqing is 17.8 times of that of Beijing. Typically, the number of high-rise residential buildings in the southern cities surpasses that of northern cities because of factors such as terrain, sunshine, urban planning and development level.

Nowadays, broader vision, better ventilation and brighter lighting of super high-rise residential buildings appeal to home buyers, although elevators and fire safety have been questioned, the report said.
