Transport is so accessible and efficient that you can visit 5 beautiful cities in 12 hours. Kudos to you.
More surprisingly, all 5 are mega cities.
but at 0:45 wrong map is shown. Arunachal Pradesh isnt even administered by ccp.
but without that one cannot live in prc. So understand the compulsion.
In such a big country
Well developed ,beautifull neat clean and safest country china in the world
I am always impressed by how modern, efficient and clean everywhere is, the trains are all very new and look very comfortable. The drone footage is awesome and I could watch so much more. A very enjoyable interesting journey ❤️🇨🇳
Thanks showing us the beautiful modern cities in Guangdong in less than 12 hours . It is the fastest transportation network among the cities in the world. Be proud of China achievement
I was overwhelmed when I see the CHINA'S own maglev train .Amazing shot.
All cities in CHINA is ultra modern.
Thank you Rafael,today's concept is so good & love such travelling.
❤️🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳❤️❤️🙏
another ccp B oT pretending to be Indian. Ah the usual😅
ccp bot spotted.
pretending to be someone from India, I presume?
WOW china is so advanced and modern
Thanks Rafa
USA is the most advanced and modernest, the best, LOL LOL, Yankees often think so.
China is undergoing collapse now......LOL
Rafa, I admire your strength and stamina. Gosh, visit 5 cities in 12 hours! Bravo! I really enjoy your traveling videos all over 🇨🇳 China. Please keep up your excellent work. 👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯💯
I used to take a bus from Shenzhen through Dongguan, in 2007, to do product inspections in Dalian which is a suburb of Foshan and then take a bus back to Shenzhen. Adding Guangzhou to it would not be difficult. I never got to Huizhou though. I sometimes used to go to Zhuhai rather than going back to Shenzhen as I had an apartment in a village in Zhuhai.
The infrastructure in the Pearl River Delta is awesome, and improving rapidly too.
In the future you will be able to do a tour like this linking both sides of the PRD within 12 hours utilising the full PRD intercity railway network for more stops and taking the Shenzhen-Zhongshan bridge to get back to Shenzhen.
thank you for showing real china
一天能拍这么多素材，非常厉害
cannot believe that even an unknown city on the map(such as Huizhou) has one of the best infrastructures. So excited to go back to China and see the amazing changes
深圳东莞原来是属于惠州管辖区！
This is Huizhou too ( surprised?) ... th-cam.com/video/iE_8rXux3hU/w-d-xo.html
Your videos always make me feel happy and they are like so futuristic.
Nice! This is how a modern infrastructure should be. Amazing to see how clean and modern China is, not like the slum Oakland of California, one of the modern cities of the USA .
I live in the CA, in the vicinity that you mentioned, and it is a very sad case here with lot of homeless encampments all over.... I'm sad to say. And I don't know how they're going to turn it around because it's so far gone and in so much debt.
I live in Bay Area 30 years still waiting something happen
@@coxinhakel I guess we just have to keep our fingers crossed. 😔
Amzing video, love it!!! 💚💚
I'd been to HK, Shenzhen, Guanzhou, Shanghai, Hangzhou and Beijing. I love to see more of China i my lifetime. Your videos are so helpful in providing infos. Thanks a lot!
China is huge but the distances are shrinking quickly due to amazing transportation.
Nice video, love the idea !
Enjoyed watching your Video very much.
Very modern cities. Hope to see more details of each city next time.
It's a challenge on this vid, but In an indirect way, one get to appreciate what good infrastructure could do. I can imagine those are meetings and sales call to clients and vendors and those cities are huge commercial and industrial cities. Good job and Happy New Year Rafa!
Fascinating to see those beautiful places from your vlog. Thanks Rafa for your great efforts in sharing with the viewers your memorable experiences.❤
加油💪
I’m from Guangzhou. Haven’t been back for 4 years already. Thanks for “taking me back”. 🙂
真厉害 一天5个城市
Nice video! I live in Huizhou and it was interesting to see my neighborhood. I have been visiting all the cities in your video but usually only one per day ;) .
OMG....im amazed.. wow China..just Wow 😀 👍👍👍
Shalom from Israel 🙂
'm originally from Guangzhou, have been settled in Israel for more than 10 years. Thanks for the virtual trip 🙂
The great bay area is a beautiful place
China's infrastructure and transportation system is the world's best
也就中国能实现5个城市在12小时。it takes me 5 hrs alone from Toronto to Ottawa Canada
this challenge is very fun! and very good work you done ! show the 5 cities of GBA nice work!
Amazing 👍👍
这个非常有创意
Great effort and tiring, thank's mate👍🏼
The GBA is such a great hub for financial services, technology and transportation, they're so ahead of the curve!!!
Wow fantastic journey, incredible transport, so cleaned environment and efficient, great video done. Thanks Sir, best of luck and good health to you Sir.
非常有创意
Awesome 👍
great train adventure
Thanks for sharing this video and let more people know more about China is a modernize, clean and convinience country!
Amazing infrastructure, ultra modern railway stations.

China spends money to build the country
Amazing!
CHINA es uno de mis paises favoritos de Asia 💕💕
The implication of this day trip is that the "Greater Bay Area" will have a high concentration of many university graduates and professionals in the high value technology industries of the future and in finance, distributed within easy commutes from each city centre. Meanwhile some of the low-end manufacturing industries that used to be in Dongguan and Guangzhou might be relocated elsewhere, including nearby countries within the RCEP trading bloc like Vietnam. As well, many of the Middle East OPEC trust funds will come to the GBA, to diversify their portfolio away from the US & Europe. The reason is obvious after the Ukraine war. These gulf countries need to minimize the risk of their oil funds being confiscated and robbed by the US & its allies, like what was done to the rich Russians. This GBA will be an important global focus for many decades.
Hong Kong - Shenzhen - Huizhou- Dongguan -Guangzhou -Foshan -Jiangmen -Zhongshan -Zhuhai -Macau -Hong Kong. Shenzhen-Dongguan-Guangzhou-Foshan is actually the world's biggest contiguous 'single' city (as in one can walk on a pavement surrounded by dense buildings from one end to another, without break), having overtaken Tokyo in 2015 according to the World Bank report. It now houses over 40 million people, and 50 million in it's metro count. The whole Bay area cities are 80 million
Happy New Year🎉🎉🎉
Awesome! Tks for sharing. This is exactly what I have in mind, travel to a few cities for my next trip to China. With a very good train connection it makes sense to travel to few cities instead of visit Beijing only then return and next trip to say shanghai. This way can save money on air tickets and time too.
Besides Beijing and Shanghai, there are so many cities which can reach there by high speed trains in China. You can explore here in China in your next trip here. I am Chinese and living in Huizhou--one of the city in his video by the way.
@@hyan8657 I have been taking notes from various vloggers in China. Will consider Huizhou too.
@@Dragon-gl1rw Cool. Huizhou is like 4 times bigger than Shenzhen. I guess you will enjoy to explore here.

High speed train = intercity metro in China.
Totally awesome, Rafa! This video was shot on Dec 9th, 2022? Just curious because was this before China lifted Covid restrictions? Now that China’s opening back up to the world, I’m guessing all of these areas you showed us will be getting a lot more visitors and business should really pick up. Hope so!🙏🤗👍
China has gone back to normal now
Guangzhou is my hometown! Love China's transportation system.
Que hermoso 😍🥰
Love 💘it
Those cities are just amazing they're incredible very futuristics by the way i like your shoes.
Great video,thank you for showing me these five cities,they all seem beautiful
Thank you for sharing !! China is different now
很有意思的12小时，新年快乐🎉
That's really amazing!
Great video
I really enjoyed watching this video 👍👏visited 5 beautiful megapolis in 12 hours. Thank you Rafa for your efforts 🙏
Great work! Congratulations
Since the new policy of Covid relaxed, Maybe you can challenge the route like HongKong-Shenzhen-Dongguan-Guangzhou-Foshan-Zhongshan-Zhuhai-Macao
Wow, never ever would i try to make a 12 hour roundtrip with German trains. 🤣🤣
I took German train before, really slowly 😂
@@fyt-fashiontrends many of them are but the high speed trains are decent. But speed means nothing if you're always late and the tracks are congested. 😂
@@91djdj I'm in UK and trains usually delay 😂 So Germany same?
@@fyt-fashiontrends How to apply Chinese citizenship and passport in your next video😂
@@quickly2593 Absolutely. Right now, German railways are pure chaos. They're renewing a lot of tracks but they fail to organise the network in the right way it seems. Plus, the flu wave hit rail companies hard and there wasn't enough staff to drive the trains. Cancelled trains also got really really common.
拍摄和剪辑的真的非常好看，风景如画👍👍👍
不像台湾人一样，喜欢看没门的厕所和观察别人是否大声说话
❤❤👍👍
The concept of "one hour life activities circle" is the driving force. Basically, it is expected that you could reach any point from anywhere within the GBA. It's not completed by any means. That is why there is still a lot of infrastructure projects going on. Some of those are stunning.
such a bummer you didn't get to experience the seamless transition from the intercity railway to a city subway. No hauling service needed to travel within these five cities, all of them are connected by subways and high speed rail. especially from Dongguan to Guangzhou, had you took the train, it would've taken you to Guangzhou East railway station in 35 minutes, right in the center of Tianhe District.
Anyway, Thanks for showing us this amazing trip.
nice work - that was only half the GBA though - you still have Zhuhai, Zhongshan, and perhaps Jiangmen. Of course, Hong Kong and Macau. So a true round-the-bay would be 30+ hours.
BBC : Forced hours !
Great!
great video - loved your phone wallpaper ❤
When I lived in the Pearl Delta area in the mid to late 2000's I never got to go to Huizhou but spent plenty of time in the other cities. I can't get over how few people are about - because of Covid I expect.
Thankyou for wowing us with the super modern cities of China! Which APP do you use to find the most convenient public transportation between places in China? Something like Google maps of China?
高德地图，百度地图
高德，even arriving time of next bus is shown on my city's 高德。
Thanks!

So envious of you. In Toronto, we have our 3rd world Via Train that crawls from city to city, and if you are lucky, you will arrive without delay. If, you are very lucky.
One place in detail
👍👍👍👏
The train station even in Foshan is bigger than lots of international airports in other countries.
Well done ！
视频很棒
amazing 👍🥳
Wow China very good.
Of the five, GZ impresses me most, although I know SZ is your city. Thanks for the film.
Yes! Guangzhou is pretty impressive! I also like that city a lot, although Shenzhen is still number one for me haha. I’m glad you like the video! Thanks for watching
I wonder how much longer would it take you if you just took the trains? The transportation infrastructure is beautiful though
High speed rail connects each city
next time you can try shanghai suzhou wuxi changzhou and nanjing
Rafa有团队了吗？视频拍得实在太棒了，画面非常美！
China city's are modding Day city 🌆🌆🌆🌆🌆🌆🌆
safe on time fast trains in china low cost
No potholes, tent cities boom, drugged out zombies, dodging freshly laid feces on sidewalks, squeegee man and definitely no American Dream.
I would to do that it looked very fun
Wow, this an amazing accomplishment only if you plan well and know the transport system well . Good job!!!
I live in Huizhou, but I think this city is not busy as others, good place for living, not for working
welcome to guangdong
enjoy your trip in China.
Hope you are happy
大湾区一日游
One thing I learned about high speed rail, you only need to get to the train station 20 minutes before train start. 15 min the gate start, 2 min gate will close. That's it.
Love to do that
In USA we used Google maps to find the best route to the destination, what App you're using in China?Thank you for your showing these beautiful cities. Happy new year!
Baidu maps
Google maps
@keyboardemperor1112 thank you for the info.
I would recommend Gaode 高德map. I use it every day. Baidu map is good too. Google map is okay.
在中國肯定首選百度地圖，可以步行導航、乘坐公交車、地鐵導航、自駕模式導航，更重要的是百度地圖可以發現周邊所有的生活配套設施，包括訂餐、訂酒店、旅館等等...找周邊加油站、WC、醫院、汽車修理廠、便利店等很準確和方便，但谷歌地圖在中國就遠遠趕不上百度地圖那麼方便了。
let go to meizhou...my hometown
I would have done this slightly different. I would have left out Huizhou and just done a lap of the Pearl Delta - Shenzhen, Dongguan, Guangzhou, Foshan, Zhongshan and Zhuhai and taken the ferry back to Shenzhen.
Rafa do you know some Cantonese to travel in the gba ?
