A Day of Hiking in Kunming, China (exceeded my expectations)

[@tanyi9429]

The scenery in this issue is beautiful. I began to like China's countryside. It is quiet, clean and the people are friendly.

⁠云南的徒步资源超级丰富。如果你徒步经验比较丰富，可以试试梅里北坡的路线，需要几天几夜徒步+露营。初级徒步推荐雨崩和虎跳峡。南极洛是这两年新火起来的秘境，前段时间在封闭式维护基础设施，应该也快正式开放了。

Thanks for sharing, Jake. I’m a Kunming local living in Australia, and seeing your amazing vlog of Kunming is awesome!

[@thejourneyofjake]

You're most welcome! Kunming is a great place, really enjoyed my time there. Hope you're enjoying Aus!

超级喜欢你的视频！！❤

[@thejourneyofjake]

谢谢！

Your videos are very attentive and have Chinese and English subtitles. The analysis of the "shi ba gong" is very interesting, and it can be seen that you have a considerable understanding of the Chinese language. China is a society with a population of 1.4 billion, so crowds of people are a common phenomenon, especially in big cities. In addition, there is a consensus in China that you should try not to go to popular attractions on weekends or holidays, not to mention that it was the Spring Festival when almost everyone in China was traveling on vacation. A disaster for people like you who don't like crowds, as is the case with hiking trails. Very interesting video, wish you a happy day, keep up the good work

What a lovely comment to wake up to, thanks so much for the support!

[@ervinslens]

Fantastic episode man, this looks and sounds so professional as always! Love it

[@thejourneyofjake]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@halnicholas3791]

Was hiking that mountain this past summer. Love Yunnan.

[@thejourneyofjake]

Great spot huh

[@youytubey]

Love youe videos jake, i hope to travel china one day but stuck working in Sydney for now

[@thejourneyofjake]

I'm glad you enjoy them. Sydney is a pretty cool place too! Ever head into the blue mountains?

[@youytubey]

@@thejourneyofjake yeah heaps of times!

[@nivzfrabx3718]

Just discovered your channel, so awesome thank you for showing us China!

[@thejourneyofjake]

Glad you enjoy the vids!

[@JingbaoHu-bu3ci]

try wugongshan and siguniangshan in china very famous

[@Pink-Sushi-jp]

Wow, what a view.

[@thejourneyofjake]

Not bad hey!

[@yu6876]

雨崩 (Yubeng) in yunnan would be the place to go for hiker! Also worth looking into the Tibetan area in Sichuan and Tibet itself. The Himalayan mountains are without match.

[@thejourneyofjake]

Thanks for the recommendations! I reckon I'll go these summer holidays 😁

[@xiaodanzhu5848]

你和小朋友的互动好可爱！

[@briancolwell2274]

Great video, Jake

[@thejourneyofjake]

Appreciate it!

[@shineluvslambiel]

have you tried 雨崩 虫草线 in Yunnan hiking up the Meili Snow Mountain?

[@thejourneyofjake]

I haven't but I'll put them on the list for summer holidays 😁

[@shineluvslambiel]

@@thejourneyofjake would LOVE if you ever made a video about it!

[@thejourneyofjake]

@@shineluvslambiel I might have to do just that!

[@finnzhao-up1gn]

去云南的话去雨崩和南极洛，太美了

[@thejourneyofjake]

谢谢你的推荐！

[@mikeliu5424]

​@@thejourneyofjake同意，喜欢徒步要去虎跳峡 南极洛 雨崩 尼汝 千湖山 阿布吉措 老君山等等，都在云南迪庆州，它是徒步爱好者的天堂，每一条线路都很经典 壮丽，你会沉醉的

[@路过的-p7u]

My friend, your hiking plan will exceed your imagination. China is very large, with almost all kinds of climates and terrains around the world, and you need a long time to complete it. I will keep an eye on you for a long time, haha.

[@thejourneyofjake]

Haha very true. Where there is a will, there is a way

[@XiaoyanSteiner-g4t]

How long did it take

[@thejourneyofjake]

3 hours my friend!

[@Cannoli_JJ]

其实作为中国人我很推荐浙江，那边也有不错的风景。但是消费会比其他地方高一些。🧐

[@thejourneyofjake]

谢谢！在浙江省里你有具体的推荐吗？

[@Cannoli_JJ]

@@thejourneyofjake 丽水缙云那边是田园牧歌的风景，比较欧式的是温州青田。

[@jingsongyang876]

hi Jake, inland Fujian provenance has many big mountains, it's only a short bus ride from Xiamen into the great 武夷山!

[@thejourneyofjake]

I have been to 武夷山 last year! I really need to get round to editing that video...the backlog I've got is crazy 🤣

[@binzhang6497]

If you need a friend in Kunming give me a shout 👌

[@ITeachChinese]

I want a house in Kunming or Dali or Lijiang 😂

[@thejourneyofjake]

You know, I'm considering something similar haha

[@OvenZheng]

干得不错，Jack👍

[@thejourneyofjake]

谢谢😊

[@yoingen]

你太瘦了，多吃点。。哈哈哈哈~~来自中国的传统式的关心~~

[@briancolwell2274]

Great video, Jake
