I used to load up my luggage with gifts when I went back for visit and paid for the restaurant bills. those days are gone. what makes china so interesting for holiday because it includes tropical weather from south, minus 40 degrees from north, desert and grassland in inner Mongolia and xinjiang, and of course the world's highest mountain everest. every region has their own unique culture and language.

Harvey great video you were spot on about China I will be visiting there next month

[@helenaleeyu6935]

Love the video so much you are. a real gentle man and a classic heart just should do to telling the truth you deserved a thumbs up

UK: Sainsbury's are running an ad at the moment for Xmas! They are supporting 5000 Food banks in the UK, I bet there are no food banks in China, crazy!

[@GerryMeyer]

I spent a year in China (GuangZhao) back in the late 90s. I felt safe. I never encountered any problem, day or night. The only other countries I feel as safe are Switzerland, Denmark, and Finland.

[@mariacsoegijanto2820]

Thank you for the video! I do feel bad for those who commented that the videos you made were propaganda videos. Let them believe what they want to believe. I have never been to Mainland China, I have visited Hong Kong and stayed there for a little bit, Taiwan, and Singapore. I definitely am looking forward to visit Mainland China soon.

I've been to China, I've been outside at night, it's definitely very safe and the vibes of true living freedom is there in China, even at late night👍🫰✌️🤩

[@stephenpeacock8592]

Based on my experience in China 2013/14 it's very safe, you could literally walk everywhere with your eyes closed at any time of the day/night. The only time it would be dangerous if you made a conscious decision to break the local laws or disrespect the culture. There is a dark underbelly of course but as a tourist/student etc. you're unilkely to get involved, more likely if you're in business etc.

For our located people ,we think all world is safe like this . and welcome to Zhengzhou Henan CHINA

Safety is freedom

[@stevenellie1525]

I have spent the past four years in China and have not witnessed a single crime, leading me to believe it is the safest place in the world.

[@lakesuccess1]

Awesome. Keep up the good work👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@terracecar1]

There is no perfect place in the world, but China indeed has very low crime rates.

[@杨洛]

In China, the homicide rate is about 99%, and drug trafficking will be shot, which is too risky.😂

[@user-ki1bk5fi8b]

because of all the traffic/securlty cameras,also the confusism teaching.

在中國，夜晚是全家人聚在一起，逛街的好時光❤

I've lived here in CN for nearly 10 years - It is the only country I can walk around anytime, anywhere with very little risk and this includes all the big cities. Public disputes occasionally happen, I just don't get involved 👍🏻

For Europeans and Americans, most of them live in The Truman Show, a Truman Show created by Western media.

love the hospitality of the Chinese people as well.

Such a good video without propaganda

[@DaWu76]

as a US citizen, it's really sad that there are large swathes of any major US city where I wouldn't want to be walking alone after a certain time of day. especially if you don't look like a local resident.

[@michaelaxford7257]

Just subscribed what a great video, you are talking a lot of sense. I have been travelling to China for over 20 years I do business in China. The people are great, I have been to over 20 cities 10 I could name the rest I have forgot there names. China opened up for business when Hongkong was handed back before that you had to deal with an agent in Hongkong. China is great the people are great. It is safe friendly. I don't know if you have been to Nanjing it's amazing the old capital of China well worth a visit. I am very conservative politics wise but I love China they have got so many things right in a lot of ways. I am looking forward to seeing my suppliers soon they look after me like a King great take on things and so true in your words Michael

I am going to Guangzhou and Xian and Xinjiang soon. The only thing I worried about is that it will be very crowded during the national holiday.

[@samuelboczek1834]

Love the video, been to China myself a few months ago and was very positively shocked. Do please keep in mind tho, this is not just Canton part of China. Visit anywhere in China and you will get a very similar experience. I've spent almost 3 weeks in Wuhan, beautiful architecture with light shows, people running and dancing by the river, flying kites, singing, eating food, kids playing on their skateboards and everyone being very, very friendly. People here in UK only know Wuhan from the Corona virus, and seem to think that it's some uncivilized village. It's not backwards, but, much of China is a bit tropical, which means viruses spread more easily - this has nothing to do with people being uncivilised or eating wild animals. If London become tropical one day, they would have to deal with epidemics every month from all the rotten food, trash and piss on the streets.

[@Sofia199x]

Guangzhou is the best city of China beside its safety, it's warm, it's open and it welcomes anyone whether you're rich or not, you can always find your own position in this beautiful city as long as you work hard.

[@reemjessicagu]

I live in this city and I can tell you walked a pretty long distance in this vlog. When people introduce how good London is, most Chinese will buy it and dream of visiting London one day; but every time I introduce how good Guangzhou is, I only get a skeptical facial expression and 'Really"?
