I was visited XinJiang Last September,but i only stayed 4N in Urumuqi. Quite impressed! Your videos inspired me a lot. And wanna back to XinJiang again if i got chance.
@ Us too! We also went from Urumqi up to Kanas 😅 small world! I was watching your video very carefully just incase I spotted myself in the background hahahav
Why's the police constantly patrolling that specific area, whereas it's not the case with other areas of China? Is it possible for a foreigner to freely film and interview the local people there? We all know the answer to that question. I've never been to China, but from an objective standpoint, those 2 questions are reason enough to worry about targeted marginalisation from the CCP !
1) Look into the 2009 riots and the history between these groups-that context matters and explains a lot about the tensions and autonomy issues. 2) If you actually want to see foreigners' experiences in Xinjiang, TH-cam has plenty. But keep in mind, media constantly frames things a certain way, and even without restrictions, bias slips in from all directions. I'm not defending any side here, just saying that making educated statements means seeing both perspectives-something Western media rarely offers as it pushes a particular narrative.
When some Muslim extremist Uyghur Chinese committed terrorist acts on Chinese streets Where some extremist Uyghur Chinese were thrown into re-education camps, and some mosques housing extremist were removed The world called it cultural genocide Where some Palestinians escaped their Gaza Ghettos committed terrorist acts on Israeli streets. We in the world call that terrorism, justifying the bombing of Palestinian civilians in their Gaza Ghettos Which begs the question China throws money at their ethnic Uyghur Chinese minority and gives them special rights over the Han majority. (Like the ability to have more than 1 kid when the rule was still enforced back then. Preferential treatment for minorities when it comes to University Education etc) Halal cafeterias/food at schools Special rights like they do with all their ethnic minority people they consider as Chinese What does Israel consider these Palestinian people as??? As they bomb them in those Gaza Ghettoes Israel forced them into. Yet in this situation, we mostly stay silent on that genocide 👇 * In 2020, the U.S. Mosque Survey counted 2,769 mosques in this country, compared to China’s more than 35,000 mosques. This means that Chinese Muslims have nearly three times more mosques per capita than do Muslims in the U.S. WorkersWorld
@@gryblk21 I noticed the same people who don’t believe a single word mainstream tells them Believe every single word mainstream tells them about China But then it’s not shocking look at our western politics these days Use to be it was good to be in the middle and be able to reach across the aisle Now you are seen as a traitor, as its pick a side and the other side is the enemy Pretty much the only thing people in industrialized nations can agree upon these days, is bad bad bad China Let’s decouple as we are becoming insignificant and China leads the rise of the Global South
Actually, from the perspective of a non-native in Xinjiang, vacation/travelling in Xinjiang hs no difference with vacations in any venues under some quarrels/tensions. When I travelled in Indonesia, I would not be concerned about the riots/anti-Chinese activities in 1960s-1990s, but just enjoy the food and everything around. As a tourist, we just enjoy our vacations and everything is fine.
Hope you enjoy part one of the Xinjiang vlog - stay tuned for part two! 😊

Thanks man. Urumqi is definitely impressive, but it’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Xinjiang's beauty!
Welcome to Xinjiang! It seems we are all in Xinjiang at the same time 😅 hope you enjoy your time here, we are loving it! ❤
Omg, really?! We went during the National Day holiday last month. It was amazing-though some spots were definitely packed with crowds.
@ Us too! We also went from Urumqi up to Kanas 😅 small world! I was watching your video very carefully just incase I spotted myself in the background hahahav

Everyone always assumes their firmly held biases are fair and well founded. No one can imagine walking in others' shoes nowadays.
