Nanjing, China Travel Guide - China's Former Capital | China Travel Vlog

[@Deyaa-1989]

I am amazed by the energy, quality, and history of this channel, proud of the way you respect each other, culture, and environment, and happy to have seen this channel. I was going to ask how people could afford frequent travelling but saw most of your videos and have learned some answers. Blogging and vlogging, in addition to having temporary travel-related jobs, receiving advertisements, being sponsored, as well as travelling smart and with the proper gears seem to pay off for pleasant and significant travels. Please allow me to reserve a permanent seat observing these journeys via KZbin :) Keep up the good work! Deyaa,

[@ThePlanetD]

You are exactly right. we work full time at travel and have been doing so since 2009. It helped to get into the blogging and vlogging business early. All the best to you and thank you for the kind words.

To us Chinese, every time we hear the word Nanjing, the very first thing comes to our mind is Nanjing massacre. RIP our ancestors who died in that tragedy. We will never forget this part of history and continue to build our nation, so no others can slaughter and bully us again. History will never repeat again. Never!

Nanjing is the best city to represent both ancient and modern China! I would conclude that it is a city that mixes North and South China. Anyone can access any cuisines from all parts of China in Nanjing. It's a must-see city to explore real Chinese history and culture and absolutely gorgeous scenery!!

Wow, this Nanjing travel guide was truly enlightening! The way you captured the essence of the city through different shots and transitions was both immersive and beautifully done. I really appreciated the balance in your commentary-informative without being overwhelming, allowing the visuals to speak for themselves. The editing was spot-on, enhancing the narrative without overdoing it. This vlog has given me a deeper appreciation for Nanjing's rich history and vibrant culture. Great work!

[@thedesertexplorer8337]

Hi nd outsider, I read your words and I feel for you. If this is your wish then there is no stopping of reaching your dream. Start small, buy simple photo/video camera (a good mobile will do the trick for a start). You can practice some footage around your city and villages, after which you will gain some experience. KZbin channel is easy to setup (there are tons of videos teaching you how to start). Try to find a product which you can advertise and get support from a sponsor. Don't give up and face all challenges, have some creative idea and be innovative in whatever you are promoting. Google successful travel blogger/vlogger and take note how they are performing. You can also specialize in any of the following industries: Food, Culture, History, Geography, social, religion, industry, entrepreneurship, Tourist attraction, restaurants, schools, transportation, etc the list is endless, chose a topic which is not widespread so you do not face competition. I wish you good luck and remember to never give up on your dreams!

Nanjing is my hometown where I spent the first 16 years of my life. It is a city with rich history and culture, modern enough yet more relaxing than shanghai and Beijing. I recommend long term stays in the city if you are fluent in Mandarin or have a tour guide who is, give yourself time to sink into the environment and feel as history flow through the streets and alleys of Nanjing. Have fun if you ever go visit Nanjing.

[@ryanpei3112]

Shin Chan Parts of the wall (I’d say like 1/3 of it) still remains while other parts has been taken down for urban constructions in the 1980s. The WWII has destroyed a lot of things but most of them was restored and repaired after the war.

0:10 This might lead to some misunderstanding. Beijing was the capital city of the last dynasty, Qing dynasty, for more than 200 years until 1911. Nanjing was the capital city for several regimes but it was not a continuous process. The last dynasty during which Nanjing was still the capital city is Ming dynasty, just before Qing. Nanjing was the capital city of ROC, but ROC can't be categorized as a dynasty since it's a republic.
