Jilin's SPECTACULAR winter scenery

I'm still getting over the beauty that is Jilin. From the hearty winter stews to the breathtaking rime scenery to this outdoor hot tub that had my jaw dropping - IT WAS AWESOME! 10/10 would recommend :P

Which part of Jilin are you from? Chuanying, Changyi, or Fengman?

[@lingxu3570]

Oh my gosh, thanks for your video. Jilin is my home town but unfortunately there are not a lot of people know this beautiful city. Jilin is worth visiting not only because of the low cost traveling expense, spectacular views, big dish and delicious good, but also because of the warm people. Please visit Jilin if you are in China or if you like Ski. Jilin welcomes you.

I bet you watched lots of prapagandas before, there are nice people and rude people everywhere, region is just not a good criteria for judging

[@theolich4384]

Even at a time like this, locals would only pay foreigners shy smiles instead of racist slurs and hate assaults. Understandably though because they don't have much foreigners around to be scapegoats, and there hasn't been that much frustration in life in the first place. But it can happen (check out recent events in Guangzhou), since people are just human.

[@jackzhang5705]

Absolutely right

[@chrischan001]

I like your happy personality and the way you present in the videos. It's a lot like "The Great Outdoors" at Chanel 7 down under. The Chinese tourism board should hire you to be their host or ambassador ❤

Breathtaking. I also love the fact that you speak Chinese to everyone, not forcing them to speak English and make them look dumb, like most Westerners do.

Don't just say it's middle-aged and elderly people in China; even most young people can only read English but not speak it.
