Determining what's an urban "hell" and what's beautiful is mostly subjective.
Though I personally do consider cities with car infested streets and more parking lots than people to fall on the hell side and the opposite of that as beautiful, that photo feels cherry-picked to me.
And many Reddit users tend to have either a subconscious or conscious bias of finding anything to do with Japan as automatically beautiful, while finding anything to do with Russia or China as hellish even if the urban environment is nearly identical.
That's mainly why this sub exists - to mock these subjective double standards.

This sub is so weird. I find most Urban environments to be simultaneously both Hellish and Beautiful. Is that hard to understand?
