When you are in Guangzhou, there is a difference compared with other Asian cities, something is missing, and you can not quite explain what, until you realize: no motorbikes. The permanent noise of hundreds of motorcycles on the street is just not there. Adding up to the strange white noise of the city is the amount of hybrid cars running on electric drive mode, silent.
