Showing My Friend Around the Most (ARGUABLY) European City in China | Being A Tourist In Tianjin.

Being a Tourist in Tianjin China was so fun! In this video I take my friend ‪@AleeseLightyear‬ around Tianjin for some fun adventures. We visit local markets, the Binhai Library, fly some kites, and enjoy an amazing Brunch at a swanky restaurant on Italian Culture Street. So much to do in China!

The way I laughed and cackled at the screen during the kite fly was basically insync with the video!!! Thank you for the adventure and showing me around lovely Tianjin! LOVE this video!!!

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

That was one of my absolute favorite parts of the video. I had no idea you were doing commentary and I laugh out loud every time. Thanks for coming to visit. Made my month!

[@AmelieZh]

If you are seeing Aleese, you should see Amy soon! Collab!! Love her laugh, lol

[@ItStartsWithAStep]

Wow what a dramatic restaurant John! The food looks so good love the grand piano and bar! Gorgeous views of the city and great antique market... love the butterfly! That library looks insane!

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

Dramatic is a great word to describe it.

[@feeeei2701]

Really like your attitude towards life. It’s always so cheering. Life is beautiful when you enjoy living it.

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

So true Fei!

[@mulanfa1292]

Very fun video, now that Aleesyia has such beautiful new hair style I bet more people want to touch/feel her hair. :)

[@hliska03]

Haha those books are definitely not about the fun kind of parties 😂. I love the kite flying. And the old flip phone. Great find!

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

Thanks Holly. Such an amazing day.

[@ForAllLifesAdventures]

Kite flying looks so cool, I have not done that for so many years!! Another great video John and Aleesyia!! 🙇‍♂️

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

It was so fun! I had not done it since I was kid. I now have a kite so if you come to Tianjin we could go fly a kite. 😆.

[@ForAllLifesAdventures]

@@JohnThomasAbroad I will look forward to that very soon 👍

[@back_to_the_future9187]

Amazing adventure, especially the food hahaha food is always the best Part of every adventure

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

You are so right! Thanks for watching Back to the Future!

[@back_to_the_future9187]

@@JohnThomasAbroad so pls more adventures(= foods)😆

[@et5222]

You make Tianjin look so nice !

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

Absolutely worth a visit!

[@AleeseLightyear]

Becuase IT IS NICE!!!

[@AmelieZh]

It is nice, lol

[@sportsonwheelss]

It is all CGI. China is very backward. Third world country based on most western news. LOL

[@oyettetv9441]

Wow😍😍😍 nice video of Tianjin😍

[@CaseyTianJ]

If you ask a Tianjiner what I should do in Tianjin. He will tell you, buy a High-Speed Train ticket and go to Beijing. Only takes 30 mins. And if you ask a Beijinger what I should do in Beijing. He will tell you, buy a High-Speed Train ticket and go to Tianjin. Only takes 30 mins.... All jokes aside, I would recommend everyone try traditional Jianbing Guozi and Tianjin style Shaved ice.

[@BrianaisGoingPlaces]

5:30 Also as a library lover this library has been added to my bucket list, but idk how I feel about the printed on books!

[@pengzhang7007]

WELCOME TO VISIT MY HOMETOWN TIANJIN

[@IndianinchinaAmitkVlogs]

Very nice 👍

[@samuelyang9729]

Tianjin is a cool city. Unfortunately it is too close to Beijing, a giant star, who absorbs most of the attention from outside, which makes other cities nearby shineless.

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

I’m trying to put Tianjin on the map! Showing as much as I can of this amazing city. It’s tough being next to Beijing but we will keep shinning. 😆 💫

[@AmelieZh]

Tianjin is not underrated if you know the history

[@zl7491]

And BJ took all he resources as well. It's amazing that Thanking can develop into the city it is today.

[@kenhung5806]

Those thimble-shaped cakes are called canelé 😀

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

Thanks Ken! They were delicious. Not to sweet and really lite.

[@Jesseishere]

i miss China mate )since we left 3 months ago i really miss it

[@user-wp9df2ur8i]

当看我到那个小雕像时，不好意思我忍不住笑了。😁

[@pttyyjz8276]

That food🤯🥳

[@tamterence5561]

haha, u really like Tianjin. also many cool architecture in Qingdao and Dalian City

[@Pixmosphere]

Nice collaboration 😁 next time you have a tour guide in Beijing 😃 it's true sometimes after years we forgot the charm of some places and as China has so rapid changes some areas could be even unrecognizable.

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

So true! Aleese is an incredible guide and can't wait to visit Beijing soon. Hope you are well in Shenyang!

[@Pixmosphere]

@@JohnThomasAbroad yes I can see that and also subscribed to her Channel. Shenyang is fine I think, just everything closed and we have some new work pass cross district permits for leaving medium risk assigned district's. Also we should stay put and just move between home and work, that's it. Seems Tianjin already back to normal but you started also earlier with Virus 🤧😆

[@kaiki8490]

What a great day out. Wish i was there. 😍👍😍

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

It was wonderful!

[@geraldcaron]

I am impressed by how good your videos are. I find them to be quite educational. I am planning to move to Tianjin in August 2023, we might run into each other.

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

Thank you so much! Tianjin is a wonderful city.

[@user-pe1vs8th6x]

It is possible to search every city's tourism strategy, every city in China has its own special attractions and characteristics, and every city has its own special food.

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

Not sure but I love the idea. Especially the part about the food.

[@cecilabbey2955]

Aleese brought me here. 💃🏾

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

Yay! Thanks for being here.

[@BrianaisGoingPlaces]

Wait I might go to Tianjin just for the mimosa at 2:25

[@michaelwon3599]

Wow is being a long time how is everything going sir

[@JasonYu-sx5ck]

ma home town😌

[@CarsandBikes]

I have been here multiple timew. Definately a German vibe. I heard Harbin also gives a euro vibe. Probably moreso on the Russia side

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

I still need to visit Harbin.

[@jc317]

The Neighborhood they visited Is the Italian concession of Tientsin. Not a German vibe.

My father was working as an editor for those 党建 books, and no one is going to read them.

[@JohnThomasAbroad]

Really?!? That’s an interesting fact.

[@user-tj6ot7tw8g]

@@JohnThomasAbroad yes. Those books mainly are about the history, the structures, the ideology of the party. Every business entity owned by the party has to buy some those books. But I highly doubt someone will read them.

[@AleeseLightyear]

@@user-tj6ot7tw8g So they aren't about what ballons to buy or where to hide for a surprise party?!?
