OVERCROWDED PLACES
Added on: 18th Jul 2015
THE MOST CROWDED ESCALATOR – TOKYO
The city is so crowded that not long ago one of its escalators came to
a grinding halt and started moving backwards. People began piling up
at the bottom and some even had to go to the hospital.
THE MOST CROWDED AIRPORT – HARTSFIELD JACKSON,
ATLANTA
It has over 90 million passengers pass through its gates every year.
THE MOST CROWDED WATERWAY – PANAMA CANAL
Designed to handle 80 million tonnes of cargo annually it now
handles 300 million.
THE MOST CROWDED BRIDGE – GEORGE WASHINGTON BRIDGE,
NEW YORK
This bridge is so busy that it has two levels and fourteen lanes.
THE MOST CROWDED HOTEL – TOKYO
Japan’s space conserving capsule inns are more accommodating
than they look.
THE MOST CROWDED PARKING LOT – CHINA
Just south of Chengdu you’ll find this tiny yet overstuffed parking lot.
In spite of the ridiculous congestion, locals claim that in the past
year there has only been 1 scrape.
THE MOST CROWDED EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL LOCATION – ISS
For now it is the only inhabited extra-terrestrial location so there really
isn’t much competition in this category.
THE MOST CROWDED PLACE –
MONGKOK COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT
Found in Hong Kong, the most crowded place irrespective of
category has over 340,000 people per square mile.
