From Mop:
China’s prisons are more modernized than our rural elementary schools
Where is this? The White House? No, this is Jiansu Province Yancheng Prison.








Such luxurious office for the Jiansu Province prison, unless they are for meeting the family of VIP inmates, or to show off the extent of China’s human rights?


Anybody dares to say that Jiansu Province Prison’s architecture style isn’t a great fusion of traditionalist and modernist elements?




The basketball court for Jiansu Province Prison is so big, not many universities in China have one like this. It is going to make the Sports Bureau embarrassed. All that lottery money, and they didn’t build as much in the country.

A hospital in a Yunan prison, luxury much?

Guangdong Province Qingyuan Prison’s front gate. Unique design, must have cost a fortune.

Guangdong Province Qingyuan Prison, when can you live in a green community like this?

Guangdong Province Sihui Prison, how does the design compare with your community?


How many students’ textbooks can Guangdong Yangjiang Prison’s flowers pay for?

Human rights??? Who knows how much money the developers got from this.
moment1845:
No wonder China didn’t film a shanzhai version of Prison Break.
会走路的黄瓜【娶对老婆上错床】:
Because even leaders sometimes need to stay in jail for a little bit, how can we not accommodate them accordingly?
嫦娥和她的捣药杵:
This post is tempting us to break the law.
穿着棉袄晒太阳:
Do you think the officials who commissioned this have a greater chance of spending their time in jail or in school??
半死烂节:
The officials have arranged their own outlets.
bishop95871:
Leaders in meeting:
“Right now we have some funding. Should we use it to build schools or to improve the conditions in jail?”
“Everyone think whether you’re going to spend any more time in school in the future…now we vote.”
【匿名人师】【齐鲁豪杰】:
What jail? This is only a place for leaders to experience life.

[I have] decided to rape a girl on the street, then go in for a while to live in comfort.
。麦来乱。:
So much better than our dorms!!!!!!!
最后的仰望:
Now you now why the crime rate is increasing? For many people, jail is better than their own homes.
静静发呆到笑:
What kind of crimes will get you into this kind of jail? I want to go too.
mich2009:
What an improvement for China’s human rights record.
Maifurion:
You think anybody can get in there? Open your eyes, only officials can go. If you don’t [embezzle] tens of millions you won’t get in. Everyday robbers, don’t even think about it.
Ready for your life of crime? chinaSMACK personals. Joking!

shit, can foreigners (laowais) stand a chance in the quest for a space in that little sultan palace????????????????????????
China is still backwards…
you should check out prisons in the Netherlands.
there each prisoner gets one room. Each room has internet access, at every meal they get a menu to choose from. they are allowed to work (and earn money). and even once a week they are allowed to let a prostitute come for an hour or two.
i cant believe this is jail,FINALLY LIFE HAS BEEN REVERSED NOW. LIFE IS GREAT!!!!YOU CAN OUT THERE RAPE ANYBODY THEN TAKE A SHIT ON THE ROADSIDE AND THEN ROB SOMEBODY S PHONE AND CALL THE POLICE TO PICK YOU UP AND SEND YOU STRAIGHT TO THAT JAIL. AT THE ARRIVAL THERE WILL BE PEOPLE WAIVING WITH FLOWERS AND CAVIAR. CHINA IS THE BEST PLACE OF ALL
Stop yelling, it’s still early in the morning over here.
What is such the big deal about capitalisation? In Korea we use Hangul, superior to the Latin alphabet, it is like talking with Capslock on all day long.
It’s so good that Koreans are just abandoning their own language and sounding out english words like infants.
후라이드 치킨 anyone?
As we konwn,Kerean always left people bad impression .
And you are exactly the example.
I just want view you comments as nonsensical and stupid words.Please help your country earn more respect.OK?
fuckin hilarous “it is like talking with capslock all day long” you sir are a man who is going down in these halls as a person who comes up with new things!
still five levels below western standards.
all the fake flowers and ugly paintjobs wont overplay the fact, that chinese prisons are deathcamps.
just look at those group cells there in that picture.
if the prison management is just as effective as any other part of the chinese government, then there routinely will be and are murders and gang rapes among the inmates because they lock up the petty thiefs with the mass rapists and serial killers awaiting execution.
Jail rapes in China are rare……. atleast among inmates
There are probably more guards raping them….. which is also very rare.
Am I being naive, if i ask you how you know this?
Only missing a hairdressers with pink lights.
oh damn! that place is better than my apartment, time to commit a crime. I hope they send me to one of these places and not just deport me…
This must be “Club Fed” chinese style. Summer camp for corrupt officials and the chinese version of Martha Stewart.
Well, in Sweden the prisoners have access to free internet, pool table, gym, great food, etc. Their daily food budget is worth as much as double of the food high school students get.
This is nothing new to us.
Just read this yesterday:

I’d bet these folks would rather live in those prisons than where they’re living now.
facepalm. commies fail again.
That is awesome facepalm!!! I will use that. Please feel free to use Chi Mate (Chinese + Primate) you have been authorized
Hey! These prison’s remind me of the luxury prisons we have in California! Life is great in the prison system. While our schools lack proper drywalls, the prisons get 10 different channels of ESPN!
Typical blog post consisting of all pictures and a bit of misleading text. Where are them prisoners at? Who’s to say the pictures that aren’t direct shots of the front of the jail aren’t of some hotel or corruption-palace.
Also, Amnesty International is watching: we shouldn’t give them and the international community any reason to think China actively oppresses inmates. (they have suspicions!)
Crazy, look as good as some universities. Wonder if this extravagant spending can be brought in check? A lot to be said for transparency…totally nuts!
what happened to the good old fashioned money saving ways..beating them to death or straight up execution.
Does it really matter whether the jail is fancy, has internet access, or any of these other amenities? Having a fair, legitimate criminal justice system is worth inestimably more than any of those things.
Of course, but horrible jails/prisons can be a symptom of a horrible justice system…
I wonder if they are earthquake proof?????
Prisoners suffer no matter what their cells look like. The real suffering in prison is psychological, not physical. Good for China (in this superficial portrait present here, at least) for not going the route of completely dehumanizing their prisoners by making them live outside in stifling heat (Phoenix) or for forcing them to live in fear of rape. That is, if the reports of a lack of rape (compared to the US) are true.
Perhaps someone in charge of China’s penal system had brains enough to realize that most prisoners will be returning to society and if you turn them into animals then there is no hope for the safety of a country where the vast majority still live in poverty and without also without adequate, uncorrupted police protection.
rofl…I wish I had been jailed!
But they don’t have KTV!
Why can’t we see any prisoners or anyone doing time in them? are the prisons empty? Taxpayers money at work.
Damn! I guess crime does pay.
Maybe these are the fake jails they have to show off to foreigners like the ones they have in North Korea.
Why don’t the homeless just go out and steal everything they can and commit whatever crimes they want. Then they can live in such luxury!
