Did I just find China’s STRANGEST market? || Harbin City Walkthrough (黑龙江 哈尔滨)

[@xinfuxia3809]

Authentic nostalgia

[@turquoise950]

What an interesting market. Did you buy anything?

[@chopsticksandtrains]

Didn’t buy anything but I was interested in some of the money they were selling from the revolution-era… I didn’t buy any though because I was worried it might be fake

[@yootoobvyooer]

Is there still Ahn JoongGun memorial near Harbin train station? His mother was so hard core that while she said she is glad of what he did, she also encouraged him to face the consequences wheh she knew that would mean death. 😢

[@chopsticksandtrains]

That’s interesting… I’m actually not sure but I’ll look next time I’m in Harbin!

[@BobJones-y1c]

Some of these things could be taken to the Antiques roadshow 😂, hidden treasures ?

[@chopsticksandtrains]

Several copies of Mao's little red book there! They had allllll kinds of crazy stuff

[@kenm4898]

​@@chopsticksandtrainsSo Mr Chopsticks those little red books are considered historical artifacts then?🤔

[@chopsticksandtrains]

@@kenm4898 I suppose to some they would be... 📕

[@RodrigoPalma700]

Great, thanks.

[@laoma4131]

Harbin is one of those cities, would be a cool place to live for 12 months you get all seasons and not seeing much snow in my lifetime that would be a good city to see the snow and see the crazy grandma/grandpas going for swim in the ice water.

[@chopsticksandtrains]

Yeah for sure! Winters are brutal there. The rivers freeze over and they do winter activities on the frozen rivers. You'll see cars driving on them, kids playing, horses walking etc... I'll definitely do a Harbin in the winter video this winter! 🥶

[@The.Nasty.]

Why does this look like San Denis from Red Dead 2? 😂

[@chopsticksandtrains]

Haha, wasn’t sure what that was but just googled it. You’re right! 🤣

[@mikestewart4752]

Did you happen to see anything related to the sparrow culling? Propaganda posters? Edit: Genuinely curious, not poking fun.

[@chopsticksandtrains]

I didn’t notice it but they had so much stuff there that it’s possible they could have had something about that. Lotta love for Mao in that market, that’s for sure.

[@mikestewart4752]

@ Really cool exploration man. Great video. 👍👍👍

[@chopsticksandtrains]

@@mikestewart4752 Appreciate ya, Mike! ✌🏻

[@alexaez2946]

Don't know how many are fake 😔

[@86laowhy]

I’’m currently not far from there. Given the weather, this was not recent. I’m not sure what your intent is, but it doesn’t seem like anything good. Maybe you need another Johnny Somali video instead.

[@kenm4898]

Were you under the impression that he shot this video yesterday?🤔 And how is a random guy filming in a neighborhood market somehow triggering for you?🤷

[@chopsticksandtrains]

@@kenm4898 haha… I think he’s just secretly in love with Johnny Somali!
