Almost two-thirds of the 1.4 billion Chinese population lives in an urban area. But how does this play out across the country’s geography?
This map shows the Chinese provinces with cities over a million residents. Data for this graphic is sourced from citypopulation.de.
China has around 110 cities with more than a million people while India has 65 cities with more than a million people.
This tells us that India is still a country of villages. People haven't yet completely abandoned village life in India.

I heard everyone is migrating to the city in China. They have trouble finding labor in the countryside where all the plants are.

interesting, but at the same time it doesn't surprise me, with the amount of population that China has, what surprises me is that there aren't more ultra-populated cities.
