All Chinese people like Chengdu. I am in Beijing and envy the life in Chengdu. Chinese people generally believe that Chengdu is a city with a slow pace of life.
Strongly recommend to have a bike travel on Tianfu Greenway in Chegdu. It’s so nice a 100km greenway around the whole city. And so many interesting parks and beautiful lakes distributed around the greenway. I really like it. Every weekend I’ll ride 30km with beautiful scenery and fresh air. 😊🚴♀️🚴♀️🚴♀️
In the eyes of many, China is perceived as an autocratic nation. However, few realize that in reality, China excels at leveraging its strengths and learning efficiently, mastering these qualities to the fullest. While the rest of the world embraces change and discards the old for the new, China chooses a different path, seeking to revive more of its historical memory. By doing so, it aims to glean greater wisdom from the experiences and knowledge accumulated by its ancestors. This is the true essence of contemporary China.

Yes , like Chinese media showing the worst homeless parts of US and then showing Chinese best parts. Cherrypicked nonsense like many western media. Everyone is a hypocrite.
Not worry to get robbed in the back alley and this is freedom. Doesn't matter how free a country is, if things you want and you are worried , then your freedom is being taken away.
No. Read the freedom house on China. It goes through what freedom actually means. You guys invent your own definitions. I think the 150 million malnourished, 1.7 million homeless and the 5.8 million slaves , plus the families who worry about child kidnapping, don’t feel that free. Virtually everyone in the west doesn’t worry, You propagandists exaggerate big time because all you talk about is Kensington avenue and homeless areas of US. It’s cherrypicked pathetic nonsense. Top 20 safest nations are mainly in the west and virtually no one worries. Most would rather go to violent Mexico on holiday rather than safe China. Normal people , not high anxiety TH-cam geeks , couldn’t care less.
China is just SAFE , period. Just tell it like it is. China is probably the safest country in the world. It's a combination of government doing its job and the culture of China. Chinese people love peace and harmony. 🇨🇳💪
Outside top 20 for safety . Still over 5 million slaves even though slavery was banned. Still mass stabbings. Still high levels of child kidnapping. Still high profile people disappearing. Where is Peng Shuai? Still over 7000 yearly murders. Still 1.7 million homeless and the UN report on the Uyghurs is an absolute disgrace. High level of fraud and scams. But, yes, very safe for most citizens.
Depends how do you define "safe". During my early visits to China (about 2 decades ago), I witnessed directly with my own eyes several incidents of pickpocketing attempts. I myself nearly fell victim too at a busy street called Beijing Lu in Shashi. But luckily the crowds in front of me stopped briefly & I felt somebody bumped at my back. I turned around & saw young kids (less than 10 years old) trying to pick my wallet at my back pocket*. They failed & turned to look at their older 3 adult minders who were several metres away watching. They pointed to the potential victims (two young girls infront of me) for them to target next. I couldn't do anything as I am a foreigner alone in the country. And I was reminded by my Chinese friend many times to mind my own business & not to get involved whenever I was in China for my safety. Having said that, I hope the situations have improved a lot presently in China. They should be in view of the many surveillance cameras (as reported) being installed almost everywhere on the public streets. NB: *Since the incident, nowadays I always keep my wallet in my front pocket.
@@jmchng9662the situation has completely changed. I witnessed pockets picking in Chengdu about 30 years ago but that kind of thing had completely disappeared. I agree with Lizzy that China now is the safest country on earth.
@@leahlee8291 , Yes, I believe pickpocketing scourge has more or less being eliminated (but not completely) in China with the installation of many surveillance cameras on the public streets / areas. Unlike those times when I was visiting China some 18 to 20 years ago. Btw western critics love to condemn such extensive surveillance systems in China. But then I am sure all peace loving citizens won't mind them; only criminals & those with criminal intentions loathe / hate them. So it's none of those outsider haters' business to condemn what the Chinese authorities are doing in their own country.
Hi Lizzy, Thanks for your lovely video Being 20 years in China, everything in your video are reflecting the happy prosperous and harmonious Chinese society as the Chinese golden miracle already gloriously materialized, only because the Chinese Government always persistently prioritized the upgrading of the quality of life of its citizens, and likewise because the Chinese people trust and love their political leaders, which have been elected by the people based on meritocracy. (Yes, unlike what western media will tell you China has 9 political parties and party members are ‘’elected’’ by the people based their own electoral system which is much superior that those in the US and EU which is based on plutocracy and favoring the interests of the 1% elite which also explains why in western countries people do not trust their own Government.)
Which party do you prefer to vote (obviously it's not the ccp)? How is the election system superior to "the West "? Can you elaborate on that a bit more? Thanks.
@@i-eat-you Why not CCP? They are doing very good job, why we should change it? Their members are great. Whether they are in the military or the government, whenever we unfortunately encounter earthquakes, floods, fires or plagues, they will rush to the front to help us out of danger and bring us clothes, food, medicine, Drinking water and shelter to help us recover and rebuild our homes. All of these are free. I was in Europe for 4 years, but I still don’t understand why the Western media and politicians hate the Communist Party so much.
Hi Lizzy, am coming again, you're in Chengdu now, don't forget to visit Global Center, SKP center and Tianfu Park, they're all amazing places to vist. all of these place can be reached by metro line one.
It is a pleasure to see that you feel relaxed and happy here, and can get little surprises from time to time! Wish you and your family can always be so comfortable!
In fact, Beijing is also a place with a lot of parks, especially the ruins of the royal gardens have been basically transformed into parks. I highly recommend walking and cycling in Beijing😂
it certainly takes lots of courage to tell the truth. i followed some accounts on instagram showing their lives in china as a foreigner, and once the video gets lots of views it get deleted by reels😅 and sinophobic vids always get attention. the algorithm on western social media app is sinophobic fr
As I have been saying many times before & here I would like to say it out again... "SEEING IS BELIEVING". So for all those ignorant readers who have never stepped a step inside China (or any country) to see for himself or herself, go & see for yourself. Dun listen to all those haters who love to spew their rubbish lies on anything China.
This is the era of social media and content creators where we can now challenge MSM narratives and debunk bias information POINT PER POINT. Algorithms though could be weaponized to “censor” alternative perspectives by the big US tech giants we know
@@lizzyinchina I went to China every year, you have to politics to gain traffic? Your superficial understanding of China is laughable. Western media is bad, how about China media? Only praise is allowed, go figure.
Lizzy's positive and loving attitude and open-mindedness, makes others feeling positive and loving too, besides learning some facts and truth from her video (what a contrast to the negative, false and biased narratives of western media). Please keep up the good work of educating people about the truth, the goodness of things, how things have been improving or can be improved to the benefit most people and not just for a few at the expense of others.
I think Lizzy doesn’t have a deep understanding of Chinese culture. She might think that the alleys decorated with Chinese oil-paper umbrellas are from Japan, but she doesn’t know that most Japanese and Korean culture was passed on from China, including oil-paper umbrellas! 😊
China never had a culture to hang oil-paper umbrellas overhead. That is a recent marketing trend without any understanding of Chinese culture. Chinese culture has been missing in China for many years.
@@yangye8260 - 1👎Chinese cultural inheritance does need to be revived, but it has never disappeared,otherwise, China would not be the only ancient civilization in the world that still exists and continues without interruption! No one says that hanging oil-paper umbrellas is not a modern marketing method, but making oil-paper umbrellas is an ancient traditional Chinese craft,there is no doubt about it! 😏
@@QQ-hp8mh if you think Chinese culture need to be “revived”, that means it had been dead. Then you could not deny it had disappeared. That is called logic. You don’t need to say hanging umbrellas, the video shows that and someone is talking about umbrella culture. To be very honest, those in the video is nothing even remotely related to traditional oil paper umbrella, it’s just a cheap modern mimic. The culture is dead, and this is not “reviving”.
All my feelings about Chandu are the same as yours. It’s really a relaxing city,and if you take some time driving around chengdu, like 1-3 hour drive, you will see many beautiful natural scenery,like snow mountains (Siguniang mountain).
Thank you Lizzy for trying to correct Western misconceptions on China. I am subscribed. Trying to spot a bit of litter on the streets in your video. Nope, just can't see it!!! 👍👏❤️ Have a lovely stay in China.🙏🌹 Ah, there's a young Chinese girl, bespectacled and wearing a light yellow cardigan. Is she stalking you or is she a good mate?
I love the little alleys lined with shops and eateries--so much to explore and discover. I feel like this is the real reason people travel, not just in China (but perhaps especially in China)--to find beautiful places and enjoy local foods and interact with the people. You make a telling comment about Chinese mamas being so happy. I think they (and the papas too) have such a great life because they are truly cared for by the government, which provides affordable housing and health services, nice parks, and cheap, convenient public transportation. Freed from worry, they are FREE to just...live! I think that is what is hidden by the W. media: how China creates communities, both large and small, where the regular people can live, thrive, and be happy. Thanks for showing us these wonderful little places.

The West likes to launch wars, invade other countries, massacre innocent people, plunder resources, disrupt international order and destroy global peace, spread rumors to discredit other countries, and instill fake news to mislead its own people. Look at the poor security and poor infrastructure in the West. Don’t you think the West should learn from China?😏
Voices and perspectives from developing countries and emerging ones should not be ignored. Something international MSM have been guilty of it for a long time.
The best thing is you can go out and get some barbucue at 2 or 3 AM alone without worrying about getting robbed or stabbed. It always worries me when I stayed up and got hungry in other countries
Thank you Lizzy for loving n telling the truth about my country ! The China haters, or the PAID to hate China "haters" will say the Chinese people have smiles on their faces because they'll go to jail if they don't ! 😂😂
Wuhou is an ancient figure from China two thousand years ago: Lord Guan . Chinese people admire him because he is a representative of loyalty and integrity.
Wow the infrastructure looks amazing, the streets are so clean and the people look like they bathe everyday. Not like India the rubbish dump where I'm from 😢
@@i-eat-you Whats positive guy doing with negative nicc ? The point is the indian guy is not lying about the lack of cleanliness in his own country He is only expressing himself honestly and nothing to do with hate his country .
@@nanyanguo1 thing is that there are a lot of very similar comments popping up around these Chinese self praise videos. I read a lot of comments like "I am jealous of the Chinese, my country is a garbage dump. Greetings from Vancouver/San Francisco/London/Melbourne ". Five reasons why I'm not buying this: 1. Nobody hates his own country like this while glorifying China at the same time and would post that on TH-cam. 2. These accusations only affect countries which have a bad relationships with China. Amazingly suspicious.... 3. A lot of these users changed their identity soon afterwards and were living in Guangzhou or Chengdu, speaking mother tongue Chinese. 4. As stated above, these postings are not authentic and all sound the same as if they come from the same person. 5. Last not least: if you adress these users directly and ask them where exactly they are from and if they speak the language (in this case India, Hindi), they know next to nothing about India and don't speak a single word Hindi.
Lizzy, lucky you. I had the privilege to visit, explore and admire one of many icons designed by celebrity Iraqi Architect Zaha Hadid. I traveled from Perth, Australia to ChengDu and two days three nights at The Hotel Intercon to soak in the largest building in the world crafted by Zaha Hadid for the Chinese nation rejuvenating the Tang Dynasty
Before I came to China, 11 years ago, (still here) I thought the Chinese ate dogs. I would see people walking their dog on the street and I thought they were just waiting for the dog to get to a certain age before it was eaten, how wrong I was. But saying that, honesty is the way to go, yes the Chinese do eat dog. There is one breed of dog that's eaten and it's bred for that, it is never a family pet, it's bred just like, beef, lamb and other animals that humans consume.
What's problem eating dogs? If cow, chicken, pig etc can be eaten, why can't dog be eaten? It is very weird that west expect other people to follow their same rule everywhere
Western media is not free media . Not neutral media . You are honest lady . From pakistan . I lived in canada many years and travelled many western countries including USA . ❤for chinese people and govt .
We do not expect the West to say positive things about us, but it cannot continue to spread rumors and smear China for decades, because the lies will be exposed soon. Westerners who come to China always ask, why do the Western media tell us completely different things? On the contrary, are we spreading rumors to discredit our enemies? Aren’t there invasions, massacres, plunders, gunfights, robberies, violent thieves, drugs, and homeless people in the West?
This is so wrong. Most Chinese people love U.S., especially U.S. people. And U.S. indeed helped China greatly during WW2 and entering WTO (economy growth), China and Europe are also good partners on many many important aspects. Politicians always love to create chaos for their own benefits, we people should never consider each other "an enemy", instead, we should try to understand each other, respect each other, and be friends.
@@amoogler respect? Please put down your Western hypocrisy and arrogance first and then talk about respect! China has never smeared the West and only seeks truth from facts, but you are smearing and saying that you should respect it? Is it fair?
@@amoogler You said that the United States helped China during World War II, that is even more ridiculous! During the first half of Japan's invasion of China, the United States had been selling resources to Japan. Does this help? If Japan had not attacked Pearl Harbor, the United States would not have entered the war at all. The Allies enter a strategic counteroffensive, and the Americans come out to reap the fruits of victory! What qualifications do Americans have to say that they saved Europe and Asia?

Something international MSM have been guilty of it for a long time.
VERY BEAUTIFUL CHINA , HOPE TO VISIT ONE DAY 🙏🌎🥭🍑🌻🍏🫒🌴🌹
The streets looks so clean!
and these crispy canal covers, these wildly romantic road signs and sun-drenched crash barriers. It makes your mouth water. ❤😻
Love Lizzie ❤I watched these videos, I just Subscribed your channel. Because your videos are real, I have been to China many years ago. Love China❤
i love you, great content
Gorgeous place!
appreciated your courage to uncover the truth of the story
The best thing is you can go out and get some barbucue at 2 or 3 AM alone without worrying about getting robbed or stabbed. It always worries me when I stayed up and got hungry in other countries
Thank you Lizzy for loving n telling the truth about my country ! The China haters, or the PAID to hate China "haters" will say the Chinese people have smiles on their faces because they'll go to jail if they don't ! 😂😂
Thank you for your great videos. I hope to visit Chengdu sometimes in the future.
Wuhou is an ancient figure from China two thousand years ago: Lord Guan . Chinese people admire him because he is a representative of loyalty and integrity.
NOT GUAN YU BUT ZHUGE LIANG
Enjoy your life there, I am looking forward to going to China soon. Thank you for sharing!
Thx for the update
I love China!!! ❤❤❤
Wow the infrastructure looks amazing, the streets are so clean and the people look like they bathe everyday. Not like India the rubbish dump where I'm from 😢
Stop lying. You are not from India.
@@i-eat-you you are denying about what he said about india
@@nanyanguo1 topic is China, not India. And why should I hate India? I am a positive guy.
@@i-eat-you Whats positive guy doing with negative nicc ?
The point is the indian guy is not lying about the lack of cleanliness in his own country He is only expressing himself honestly and nothing to do with hate his country .
@@nanyanguo1 thing is that there are a lot of very similar comments popping up around these Chinese self praise videos. I read a lot of comments like "I am jealous of the Chinese, my country is a garbage dump. Greetings from Vancouver/San Francisco/London/Melbourne ".
Five reasons why I'm not buying this:
1. Nobody hates his own country like this while glorifying China at the same time and would post that on TH-cam.
2. These accusations only affect countries which have a bad relationships with China. Amazingly suspicious....
3. A lot of these users changed their identity soon afterwards and were living in Guangzhou or Chengdu, speaking mother tongue Chinese.
4. As stated above, these postings are not authentic and all sound the same as if they come from the same person.
5. Last not least: if you adress these users directly and ask them where exactly they are from and if they speak the language (in this case India, Hindi), they know next to nothing about India and don't speak a single word Hindi.
Thank you ❤
I always say Chinese men are very lucky
80s 90s china poor and dirty, but their government really try their best to improve
Once again love your videos❤，赞👍。
Brilliant videos Lizzy. Many people are learning the truth thanks to people like you.
Lizzy, lucky you. I had the privilege to visit, explore and admire one of many icons designed by celebrity Iraqi Architect Zaha Hadid. I traveled from Perth, Australia to ChengDu and two days three nights at The Hotel Intercon to soak in the largest building in the world crafted by Zaha Hadid for the Chinese nation rejuvenating the Tang Dynasty
Thank you for your brave to tell people the real China ❤
Before I came to China, 11 years ago, (still here) I thought the Chinese ate dogs. I would see people walking their dog on the street and I thought they were just waiting for the dog to get to a certain age before it was eaten, how wrong I was. But saying that, honesty is the way to go, yes the Chinese do eat dog. There is one breed of dog that's eaten and it's bred for that, it is never a family pet, it's bred just like, beef, lamb and other animals that humans consume.
these days some peope lie that we eat cats，ridiculous，we like take cat as pet but not for eat😂
We have a pet cat, and I've seen a cat for sale in the wet market.@@Lydiahu-u2p
eating dog meat is asian ancient culture in 🇯🇵 🇹🇭 🇰🇷 etc... even unpopular nowadays.
What's problem eating dogs? If cow, chicken, pig etc can be eaten, why can't dog be eaten? It is very weird that west expect other people to follow their same rule everywhere
worse part is that the west doesnt have the same prejudice with the koreans. Yes, koreans do eat dogs as well but it doesnt fit their narrative.
The CPC is forcing Chinese people to live a good life😢. Bring democracy NOW 🤭
😂😂😂
That's what a typical Western media report would write
😂😂
they may lose everything, but they will have freedom 😁
@@LW78321TH-cam is a typical Western medium
@@LW78321 und schon ist Ruhe 😊
thanks
My mom is an example, but she is the strong type, so when she dances she wears her best clothes and practices hard at home to be in the front row😂

Hi Lizzy, love your video and best wishes for your stay in Chengdu❤'s
Lekker mielies gooi met Alan Walker.💃🕺
😂😂😂😂😂 Gooi mielies!!!
Awesome Lady!
Outstanding
Thanks beautiful Lizzy you bring me back to China. Was D.J. Alan Walker real there? I love his song "Faded". Chengdu I will be there someday.
Can't expect your enemies to say positives about you.
We do not expect the West to say positive things about us, but it cannot continue to spread rumors and smear China for decades, because the lies will be exposed soon. Westerners who come to China always ask, why do the Western media tell us completely different things? On the contrary, are we spreading rumors to discredit our enemies? Aren’t there invasions, massacres, plunders, gunfights, robberies, violent thieves, drugs, and homeless people in the West?
This is so wrong. Most Chinese people love U.S., especially U.S. people. And U.S. indeed helped China greatly during WW2 and entering WTO (economy growth), China and Europe are also good partners on many many important aspects. Politicians always love to create chaos for their own benefits, we people should never consider each other "an enemy", instead, we should try to understand each other, respect each other, and be friends.
@@amoogler respect? Please put down your Western hypocrisy and arrogance first and then talk about respect! China has never smeared the West and only seeks truth from facts, but you are smearing and saying that you should respect it? Is it fair?
@@amoogler You said that the United States helped China during World War II, that is even more ridiculous! During the first half of Japan's invasion of China, the United States had been selling resources to Japan. Does this help? If Japan had not attacked Pearl Harbor, the United States would not have entered the war at all. The Allies enter a strategic counteroffensive, and the Americans come out to reap the fruits of victory! What qualifications do Americans have to say that they saved Europe and Asia?
@@amoogler WTO? I give you goods and you give me money. This is a fair trade! Don’t American companies make profits in China? hypocritical!
Смотрю из Миннесоты ❤
❤❤❤❤ my liewe Lizzy... dit lyk of jy ‘n sinofiel geword het. Met BRICS op pad, sal Suid-Afrika binnekort meer Chinees word, en omgekeerd. Jou Putonghua behoort nuttig te wees. Goed vir jou om meer te glimlag. Baie liefde en vreugde vir jou.😘😘😘😘🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
wuhou is zhugeliang or Kong ming is from Romance of three kingdoms. The current chengdu is the capital of shu back then.
Hallo,
Thanks for your videos about China. I am learning more.
Would you please give the name of the song at the begining of this vidéo?
Thanks
China is a most safe country in the world
It takes some courage to tell the truth. It's a surprise this video was not criticized by the western people.
Glad to learn that you like my hometown! 😃 Are you planning to stay?
