Hi Karolina and Jay, your shocks have just started. I'm not from China but have traveled to China 5 times (will be sixth in Oct 2024) and everything you guys heard or read from mainstream media back home can be thrown out of windows, whatever they said, just turn them 180 degrees and you'll get the info right. I would rank China the safest country for travelling the last 10 years (at least). When you guys are done with China's cities, go visit the tourist attractions on mountainous landscapes like Zhangjiajie, Jiuzhaigou, Guilin, Yunnan, Dali, Lijiang and so on. You are about to get (Positive) Shocks upon shocks in China and when you say the truth about what you experience in China, be prepared to be accused that you guys are paid by China's government like all the other youtubers have. Just enjoy !!

[@JJr-ce3vv]

Thanks for sharing such an excellent vlog. Chinese people are incredibly friendly and humble towards visitors, always eager to lend a hand. Unlike the "welcome to come and shop but don't stay" attitude often found in some Western countries, the hospitality in China is genuinely heartfelt. Whether rich or poor, young or elderly, Chinese people truly want you to feel at home. This stems from a deep-rooted cultural value that dates back over 2,000 years: "宾至如归," --meaning "guests should feel at home." Their warmth and openness create a unique experience you won’t find anywhere else.

Few years back the gov did a huge push on EVs, and it has been pretty successful. EVs carry green plates, can be very easily identified. All the scooters have been electrics for a long time. That’s why it’s quiet on the streets. I had also noticed this after returning back to China. 3. Spitting is a bad hobbit and we also hate people doing it, but have to deal with that.

The white colour vegetable is Chinese cabbage and you can cook it with other vege food such as tofu, red chillie etc, in addition, it can be one of the ingredients of dumplings(a wonderful favourite for many Chinese). Try dumplings (with stuffings such as pork, beef, lamb, etc). Enjoy your trip!

I travel to China for work often and have been doing so for a number of years. I don't know why westerns (American here) have a weird thing about China. I live in the SF Bay Area in the US and when I return from a trip to China, I get depressed on how antiquated America is. China is high-tech and also very safe. In the 2+ years that I paused my travel due to the pandemic, China managed to build a new mega airport in Beijing and build an entire subway line to the new airport and a new station that connects the 2 lines to the 2 airports and city center. In my area, BART has been talking about extending a segment of 10 miles and it will probably take 10-15 years before we see completion... In China, people respect law enforcement and in return, police officers are professional and polite unlike those in America. Videos like this really help western get an understanding what China is really like.

[@peterscrace3530]

Fair comment from my expierence in China. People here are generally rude each man for himself is how society is here which stems from the chairman Mao days unfortunately FOMO is very prevelent. Whilst I'm not a fan of the CCP life here is not as bad as Western media would have you believe, no freedom of speech but freedom in other ways that we don't have in the west largely due to the lack of enforcement. Ethnic minority people are actually employed by the government to educate the han majority of Chinese about their way of life and culture, nothing like what the western media are telling us, I have seen this with my own eyes. Don't believe everything the western governments are telling you a lot of it is not true. No graffiti, public transport is clean cheap and on time, food is cheap, taxis are cheap. The lack of political correctness and woke culture here is refreshing.

This is the tourist version, and visiting China as a tourist is easy because you don't have to confront the messiness of everyday life and you see things but understand nothing, certainly not how the place really works. The only sense you get of what the place is really like is when you're stuck with the Chinese Intranet and can't see the news, lookup something on KZbin or Wikipedia, or access ones email. The thing that these KZbinrs always fail to mention is that they committed a crime when they uploaded this video.

I don’t know what your daily accommodation budget is. The conditions of this 43 USD inn seem to be relatively poor. Of course, the location of this inn may be very good, hotel prices in Beijing are relatively expensive in China. I personally recommend finding one China's local hotel chain（Hanting inn, Ji Hotel） with 400RMB-500RMB (55 USD-70 USD) per night. The accommodation will be better , but the food can be a little cheaper. Enjoy your nice trip！

[@TeddySy-rs2yv]

Correct, stay in a nicer hotel next time, there are many hotels with better conditions, services and location,.

Exactly...i am wondering why they pick a hotel like this one in the video .. public transport is easy.. so they could consider a slightly further hotel with better quality and honesty, for a room for two with that price, could have gotten much better place

[@chunnichen5869]

Yes, Hanting and Ji hotel are much better than this one!

[@96518]

Foreigners sometimes get refused entry to Chinese hotels. It happens less in the larger cities, but the smaller the place the more likely it is to occur. The reason for this is that foreigners have to be registered wherever they go in China and many hotels couldn't be bothered learning how to do this because they get so few foreigners. One of the laws that most tourists are unaware of is that foreigners must report to the police and register with them within 48 hours of arriving in any new place they go in China. This is transparent to tourists because the hotels do it on their behalf. It is not possible to get a hotel in China unless you produce your passport. I was once left homeless because my housemate accidently locked me out of my home without my passport. I slept on the street because no hotel would give me a room, even when I told them I had other identification and could provide my passport in the morning.

[@Grrzyy]

@@JayandKarolina Because the Chinese government has given many preferential policies to electric vehicles. Electric vehicles do not need to pay purchase tax, which is generally 10% of the car price. At the same time, in order to facilitate everyone to distinguish electric vehicles from fuel vehicles. Many parking lots do not charge parking fees for electric vehicles, and the management system and management personnel of the parking lot are easier to distinguish. There are many preferential policies like this, so there are blue license plates and green license plates. Existence is reasonable. Don't use habitual thinking to understand the world.

​@@JayandKarolina EVs with green plates can be driven everyday whereas ICE vehicle with the blue plate can only be driven every other day.
