Ningbo;
Ningbo is a sub-provincial city in northeast Zhejiang province, People's Republic of China. It comprises six urban districts, two satellite county-level cities, and two rural counties, including several islands in Hangzhou Bay and the East China Sea. Ningbo is the southern economic center of the Yangtze Delta megalopolis. The port of Ningbo–Zhoushan, spread across several locations, is the world's busiest port by cargo tonnage and world's third-busiest container port since 2010.
Ningbo is the core city and center of the Ningbo Metropolitan Area. To the north, Hangzhou Bay separates Ningbo from Shanghai; to the east lies Zhoushan in the East China Sea; on the west and south, Ningbo borders Shaoxing and Taizhou respectively. As of the 2020 Chinese national census the entire administrated area of Ningbo City had a population of 9.4 million (9,404,283).
Ningbo is one of the 15 sub-provincial cities in China, and is one of the five separate state-planning cities in China (the other four being Dalian, Qingdao, Xiamen, and Shenzhen), with the municipality possessing a separate state-planning status in many economic departments, rather than being governed by Zhejiang Province. Therefore, Ningbo has provincial-level autonomy in making economic and financial policies.
In 2022, the GDP of Ningbo was CNY 1570,43 billion (US$233.479 billion), and it was ranked 12th among 293 cities in China. Moreover, Ningbo is among the wealthiest cities in China; it ranked 8th in terms of average yearly disposable income in the year of 2020. As of 2020, Ningbo has global headquarters and registered offices of over 100 listed companies, and many regional business headquarters. In 2021, Ningbo featured the seventh most listed companies of all cities in China. Furthermore, Ningbo was among the top 10 Chinese cities in the Urban Business Environment Report released by the Chinese state media China Central Television (CCTV) in 2019.
As a city with rich culture and a long history dating back to the Jingtou Mountain Culture in 6300 BC and the Hemudu culture in 4800 BC, Ningbo was awarded "City of Culture in East Asia" by the governments of China, Japan, and Korea in 2016. From 1842, Ningbo was one of the first five treaty ports opened up to the West. Ningbo is one of the top 200 cities in the world by scientific research as tracked by the Nature Index.
Tim Chambers takes Ningbo Metro Line 4 to Dongqian Lake, then hires an Alipay e-bike and explores part of the lakeside route. He shows how the metro exit, tourist information point and bike-rental area connect, checks the rental bikes' operating zone, and turns back where paths become narrow or crowded. He says some lakeside areas do not allow rental bikes and rides slowly around pedestrians. The visit ends with a 9 RMB rental and a short walk back to the metro; he does not complete the full loop.

Tim Chambers visits Dongqian Lake from Ningbo by taking metro line 4 to the Dongqian Lake station. He uses exit A, which he finds convenient for reaching the lake, the tourist information point and a bicycle-rental area. He looks at pedal bikes and rental e-bikes, then finds blue Alipay bikes that he says can be used with an Alipay account; he says the yellow bikes require a full Chinese ID. The rental app shows the area where the e-bikes may be used, and he notices that they cannot be left along one particular lakeside strip. He rides on the main track and nearby paths, passes a waterside village and turns back when the route becomes narrow or crowded with pedestrians. He says the bikes have a maximum speed of 25 km/h, but his comments about battery range are unclear: he estimates about 25 km for the bike he is using and then mentions a general range of about 90 km. He does not ride around the whole lake. After returning the bike, he says the rental cost 9 RMB and walks about 150 m back toward the tourist information point and metro. The video focuses on reaching the lake and cycling a section of its paths.
