Spent five years in Shanghai, loved it. Still in China may years later. About the low crime level- not simply about cameras, also consider the ancient traditions and societal culture. People are not involved with crime, or conflict or aggression. Mostly kind and accommodating- you will witness more as you travel around. So, good to see people with open minds adventuring and enjoying China with their first experiences. 😀

I lost a 1500AUD helmet in Sydney. For there was no camera and the police told me there was no way to find it. I need to clarify that China's 'Skynet' system has almost brought crime in China down to a shocking rate, in China you can't even see the police chasing the car, because the police just have to let him go and check the surveillance camera later, the surveillance does not record the voice, it does not affect normal people, in China except criminals, no one worries about the camera. The West's fear of cameras is based on media disinformation and the fact that cameras in Western countries are often operated by private security companies rather than the police, which is very different in China

@@linwoodhucse628 I studied in Canberra, Australia for 4 years. My bicycle was stolen and I was harassed by homeless people and teenagers.

For rich people, the whole world is safe, but for ordinary people, the speed of Chinese police handling cases makes me think China is safer.

As a Brit having lived in Shanghai for the past 28 years I really enjoy watching the reactions of foreign visitors to my (new) home city and in fact to China in general. It's an amazing country and as someone who has traveled to many countries (as a photographer) not only the Top 3 most photogenic (geographically and culturally) but definitely the safest. Not one incident in 28 years.

[@linwoodhucse628]

另一方面，除了 photographer 自身的反应，一个摄影师是不是更关心观众的反应呢？ 看起来，有很多的中国观众。那些经过编辑并翻译成中文的视频，也是在同一范畴啊。

[@Ironfangzu]

So glad that you have found a new home in China. 28 years is a long time to go without any incidents. But, you are a Brit, and so to us you will always look like a foreigner. As a foreigner, you are a guest in our country. Of course you know by now that Chinese greatly value hospitality. As long as you behave with normal courtesy, you will always be treated well. You are our guest, and you deserve to be treated as well as possible. BTW, after such a long time, I must assume that your putonghua must be pretty good by now. I often find Chinese speaking foreigners greeting non Chinese speaking foreigners and offering help with directions and translation and such. I hope you are doing this too. After all, you are really one of us now, haha.

Don't your country install cameras in public places? If it is incomprehensible to Chinese people that there are no cameras in public places, is it because the government has no money to install them, or does it not want to maintain public safety? If you think there are eyes staring at you behind the camera, then you overestimate yourself. You are just an ordinary person. No one will care about you or pay attention to you. These camera data will only be used when a case or public safety incident occurs. As long as you don't try to do anything illegal, you don't have to worry about these cameras at all.

Mooncakes in China vary by region, each offering distinct flavors and fillings. Cantonese-style mooncakes, like the one from the hotel, are the most common, featuring a soft crust with sweet fillings such as lotus seed paste, red bean paste, or salted egg yolk. Some also contain mixed nuts or dried fruits. The Shanghai-style, like the one you bought, has a flakier crust and often includes savory fillings like pork, though sweet versions exist. Other notable varieties include Suzhou mooncakes, with layered pastry and mixed fillings, and the savory Yunnan ham mooncakes. Pork floss is made by stewing pork in a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, and spices until tender. The cooked pork is then shredded and stir-fried or dry-fried over low heat, allowing the moisture to evaporate. This process creates a light, fluffy texture, resulting in a savory, slightly sweet meat floss often used as a topping or filling in various dishes.

The dipping sauce at 16:00 is actually called 辣酱油(spicy soy sauce) or Worcester sauce. From its name you can probably guess that it comes from the UK and it does, by 1900s or so. It is widely used by Shanghainese and Cantonese people for cooking and dipping.

Absolutely stunning Shanghai, couldn't believe how beautiful and modern the city really is!

[@JayandKarolina]

Couldn't agree more!

What an amazing place wow great video jay and Karolina thank you 💕

Er, minor factual error in your introduction - Shanghai's population is around 25 million (equal to 1 Australia) at the moment and NOT 30 million. Only Chongqing (technically, a municipality) has a population exceeding 30 million (about half the UK) within China. Glad to see that you guys are enjoying yourself in China. I have been watching the China series.

Well, moped/motorbikes/scooters riding on the sidewalks are common in many parts of China. When I was in Hainan in 2019, the motorbikes not only ran on the sidewalks, but cross the street along with pedestrians. So, it's quite challenging that you need to see ALL DIRECTIONS to make sure you're not going to be crushed over 🤣

peaceful!

So this is where you've vanished too !! Used to watch your delivery videos and these randomly came up 😱😱

你们是会玩的也是会吃的，豫园的小笼包和沈大成的点心（粽子和月饼之类的）都算正宗上海小吃

Mid-Autumn Festival is a public holiday in China and all the attractions are super crowded!!

[@JayandKarolina]

That's true... But the Golden Week celebrations were even worse 😳😳 Next time we come to China, we really would need to pay attention to the dates because we didn't expect it to be that bad haha

[@kevinliu6937]

I’ve been to Shanghai so many times the attractions never fail to disappoint!

[@oldbrain394]

Awesome trip really.

As for desserts, I would like to point out that the traditional Chinese food culture emphasizes balance and nature, so the sweet source is often the natural source of lotus seeds or red beans. In China, there are few very sweet desserts, besides, desserts are also used to match tea, and too sweet desserts will cover the taste of tea. Therefore, Chinese people can hardly accept Western authentic sweets, while Westerners find Chinese desserts very bland😂

Hi Jay thank you for the video 😊 Hi Karolina you are fantastic ❤

[@leochen1960]

LOL, I can tell that Karolina was pretty nervous when she passed the ferry security check with her hands up.

[@zhangYuewei]

Watching your video makes me miss my hometown. As if I come to these places by myself!

[@JayandKarolina]

Glad to hear that! Honestly it's the biggest compliment! And hope you'll be able to come home soon ❤️
