<p>Did you know that China has its own version of California’s Orange County? Just an hour’s drive from Beijing, a meticulously designed suburban community developed in the early 2000s has <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/orangecounty/comments/16pji07/just_learned_orange_county_china_is_a_thing_and/">captured</a> attention on social media over its sprawling palm trees, landscaped yards and even a man-made lake.</p>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><b>About the community: </b>China’s Orange County, developed by Beijing real estate mogul Zhang Bo in collaboration with Newport Beach architects and Orange County designers, is a gated community that mirrors Southern California’s suburban lifestyle. Locally known as “Ju Jun,” it was designed to cater to China’s new upwardly mobile class, embracing Western aspirations with an American-style layout, including amenities like central heating systems, basement recreation rooms and high-tech kitchens. Despite the cultural divide, the project’s first phase sold out rapidly, dubbed the “Orange Storm” by local media.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><b>What people are saying: </b>Residents and buyers were thrilled by glimpse of the American lifestyle the community offers. Documentary filmmaker Xiao Qingchun, who purchased a $300,000 model home in 2001, told the <a href="https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2002-mar-09-mn-31967-story.html">Los Angeles Times</a> it was “very American.” Still, developers paid attention to local preoccupations, including feng shui. “In appearances, it&#8217;s totally unlike other Chinese compounds, but more than that, we have the river to the south and the mountains to the north. The feng shui is excellent — it gives you the feeling of coming home,” lawyer and homeowner &#8216;Liang Haijing told the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2003/02/03/world/north-of-beijing-california-dreams-come-true.html">New York Times</a> in 2003.</li>
