One of the interesting experiences when traveling to China is taking a high-speed train. High-speed railway lines in this country have speeds of more than 300km/h, some routes run up to 431km/h, and even reach a record of 501km/h. In particular, even though the trains run at a fast speed, they have good sound insulation and do not vibrate at all, so quiet that visitors can hardly feel the train moving without looking out the window.
On social networks, many foreign tourists to China share videos of sitting on high-speed trains and testing the smoothness of the train. Accordingly, visitors stand a coin, a pen or a water bottle upside down and place it on the window sill.
The amazing result was that the coin did not move, the pen stood still and the water in the bottle only shook very slightly. This shows that the ship's vibration is almost negligible.
The videos received hundreds of thousands of views on social networks. Many netizens expressed surprise at how cheap this means of transportation is in China.
By the end of 2022, China's high-speed rail network will be 42,000 km long - the largest high-speed rail network in the world. This is the country with the fastest railway development in the world.
The trains all use modern technology and the maglev (magnetic levitation) system. Advanced technology helps the train reach speeds of up to 620km/h - far exceeding the speed and smoothness limits of conventional steel-wheeled trains.
In addition, the train's aerodynamic design also helps minimize noise and vibration when traveling at high speed. The air suspension system also helps absorb vibrations from the rails, giving passengers a smooth experience when traveling by high-speed train.
