Remarkable achievements in infrastructure construction, the fruit of China's economic development, are also highlighted in each episode.

And for the episode depicting Guangdong province, the production team turned their lenses on Canton Tower, a 604-meter-tall landmark building located on the south bank of the Pearl River, before turning to the 55-kilometer-long Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, a megaproject linking nine cities in Guangdong and connecting the two special administrative regions.
