3. Zhenjiang, China: A smart city with a long history

A 90-minute bullet train ride whisks visitors from Shanghai to Zhenjiang, a high-tech city on the Yangtze River. Once in the city, public transport is a breeze. A myriad of bus routes are managed centrally through a smart transport network that improves efficiency and reduces fuel use and emissions.

Some buses even offer superfast free 4G wireless Internet for riders. The first port of call for visitors should be the app store: bus arrival times, open parking spaces and public bicycle pick-up points can all be checked from a smartphone.
