I’m a Chinese living in London now. I have watched every one of your videos and am very grateful for your objective evaluation of everything. Hope you have a great time in Pakistan. Pakistan is our best friend and I believe you will find happiness there😄
Guys the problem is not with the banks here, its the banks back home, Pakistan along with some other countries are on some sort of restricted list. Call your bank and tell them you need to use your card in pakistan and its not working currently and the will sort it out for you from their end. Happened with me also. Best of luck!
Many Chinese and Pakitan brothers and workers lost their lives for the contruction of the land transportation between two countries. Let's not forget about them nowadays when everyone enjoys the convinience they brought. Long live the brotherhood and friendship between China and Pakistan!
Northern areas of Pakistan are very beautiful and thank you very much, you made a good video and showed the good face of Pakistan to the whole world. 🇵🇰❤️
WoW. I started watching this as just to check out how the highest border looks like but the moment you got to the first ATM, now it seemed like a Series/Movie and episodes. I actually felt like I was holding your camera but cannot talk to you, hehehe. Actually, when you went to buy sim card and told that its only locals and you were out there after leaving the shop, not knowing what next, no no no money... no..... Guys, God bless all those who helped, as a Kenyan, this has changed my perception about Pakistanis. For this, I had to subscribe to your channel so that at least we travel together and I be your camera man as I have in this trip. This has touched my heart. Always, stay positive. Enjoy Pakistan stay and thank them on my behalf.
I am a Pakistani and our relations with China are very deep and old, whenever we talk about friends of Pakistan, the first thing that comes to our mind is CHINA 🇨🇳. Such a peaceful and beautiful relationship that never fades 🥰🙌🏻 Long live Pak-China friendship 🇵🇰❤️🇨🇳
@@YeSwagGaming It seems that your education is falling short here, it is of no USE here. It is not a normal relationship but one of mutual interests. In the rest of the world, it is rare to consider the benefits of both before doing anything. Pakistan and China have always supported each other in difficult situations. And at that time the two countries had started seven works on several projects including CPEC and in the near future the Economic and friendship between the two will further increase. 🇵🇰🇨🇳👏🏻
Sorry brother I dnt really see a deep relationship between china and Pakistan .. it is just what your (Pakistan) govt shows that you have a deep relationship . In reality there is no balance in your friendship . Pakistanis just over react that they have a friends like china .. if u asked Chinese people they don't even care . Moreover there is no cultural similarity between Pakistanis and Chinese .. Chinese suppress all type of Muslim customs and Pakistani govt is afraid to even mention those topics . Now talking about helping each other's out , Pakistan has nothing that china required and china never really helped u in anything .. in china Pakistan economic corridor also china is making it to use you . Because of Chinese loans Pakistan is in the situation where they are right now.
I'm from Pakistan I 💓🇵🇰 long live 🇵🇰 we love our great brave friend 🇨🇳 people's Republic of China we love people's Liberation army we love our great brave friend Honourable president Mr xi Jing ping long live 🇵🇰🇨🇳🇵🇰🇨🇳♥️❤️💪💪 friendship ❤️
Pakistan does not have any history it is india which has ancient history pakistan is nearly a 78 years old country it my be called pakistan but there ethnicity is indian
@@himanshu5251 Lol. Mohenjodaro had nothing to do with India it was an ancient civilisation and we know nothing about them. The Mughals ruled you for hundreds of years. Doesn't make you an Afghan. English ruled you for another 3 centuries or so. Doesn't make you English. There is NO Indian ethnicity. Pashtuns are as different from Tamils and Bengalis as Russians are from Zambians. So STFU. Pakistan is a federation of different ethnicities. We have Pashtuns who are Afghans. Balochs who are Persians. Punjabis Sindhis etc. Their foods are different. Languages are different. Clothes are different. Aint nobody an Indian cuz that shit doesn't exist.
🇵🇰Wonderful Pakistan 👌 Generous people of Pakistan, welcoming, friendly, smiling & great hosts. 🌹 Duas 🤲 📿 wishing for both of you for safe & happy stay in Pakistan 🇵🇰 💪
Thanks for your acknowledgement about the generosity of Pakistani people. There are good and bad people every where in the world. Yes, people here are more emotional, curious and communicative. Humanity is not restricted to one country alone. You have to pay the price in-exchange of the services (including behavior and development) in any county. When we compare counties we actually don't compare the price we spend. In the last, nature has no boundaries, each part the world is beautiful. The uniqueness about this area/part of the world is that, it is the junction of three highest mountain ranges (Himalayas,Karakorum and Hindukush), which contain eight above 8000m peaks and hundred of above 7000m peaks.Thanks God.
You guys should manage your monies when traveling much more of different currencies. You must be careful using your cards since your in a different country. You’ve travel a lot you should know better.
Welcome to Pakistan. There is never a dull moment in Pakistan. Systems are flawed here but people are KIND. Really excited for your Pakistan series! #AmazingContent
OMG, I can not believe the day you had travelling this day. At the start I could feel your excitement and thought I would one day do the same trip, but now I'd say NEVER! My Pakistani husband was telling me I was crazy to want to sttempt this, but he is now relieved that I've come to my senses. So sorry for all your troubles. Hope you stay healthy and enjoy the rest of your visit there.
The cross border transportation should become easier once the trains start running between China and Pakistan. What a bummer being without money in a foreign country.
@@Alan_and_Shannon Greetings from a Pakistani American. I generally don't want long videos due to time but your video was too engaging to set aside. Plus, cross between China and Pakistan via the Khujerab Pass is on my Bucket List. Sorry to see you having such currency issues. I absolutely hate those ATMs which ask you to insert the card; if something goes wrong, you lose your card. Even in America I always try the swipe card reading. My strategy when needing currency in Pakistan: Carry a good bit of American Dollars. Carry 2-3 credit cards. Store some cash with relatives. In case of Karachi, with its rampant petty crimes, its never good to carry a lot of cash or even your original 'documents'. BTW, unless something already exists, there should be some internet based cash-access service where, for a fee, you'd store some money and be able to access it anywhere in the world after authentication. Thanks for the video. I will subscribe to you! PS. Scottish accent can be very hard to understand but I understood most of yours'.
First time commenting on TH-cam! Love this one and thank you! This video hits me hard with all the nostalgia for me. I was volunteering in Village Taheman, Tashkurgan in 2019 summer time. I went to the border in late June and it was snowing very so heavily. I was so lucky to talk to some Tajik ethnic valiants there who shared the duty with the border soldiers. And took pictures of myself standing right under that big arch but never cross the line😂the trip from Tashkurgan town centre to Khunjerab has astonishing and breathtaking (quite literal😅) views! And it’s significant history and geopolitical impact make this border so special! It’s amazing that you show us the other side!!! Also hello from 🏴!Im Chinese living in Scotland 😄
Welcome To Pakistan I hope you enjoyed your stay in China And Explored beautiful and colorful China and enjoyed their hospitality .We Pakistanis love China and always love to read and watch about China we are all weather friend countries 🇵🇰🇨🇳
China helped pakistan to build G Highway . as well as built the ongoing China pakistan economic corridor [CPEC ] projects . CPEC is part of the BRI . Phase 1 of CPEC has been completed Before these projects , there were little land connectivity and accessibility in this remote part of the world. When CPEC Ph 2 is also completed , pakistan will be linked to BRI euroasia land corridor running from China across the central asia to west asia n europe. So one day you 2 might want to travel the euroasia land corridor linking China n, pakistan to iran n europe side of the continent .
helped - what a joke. China aims to be a replacement of British empire. Hats off to America who learnt from mistakes of imperial Britain and did not encroach other country's land under guise of building roads. America has means and the money power to take over any country but it did not. China with little progress it made wasted no time in taking over land from neighboring countries. India will never take away anyone else's land. Thats why we are different from Pakistanis..and we separated from them. Pakistani if they become rich will snatch land away from everyone without any remorse. Human being are so different in every part of the world..One must be careful and be well informed.
What a fiasco! At least you got some friendly help from the locals! It reminded me of my travel back in 1960 when I hitch hiked from Singapore via India and as I entered Pakistan from India Punjab border, we met friendly locals who shown us around in their small border town in contrast to when we wer in Armritsar, India where we were almost robbed and I lost my watch while in Delhi India. Good luck with your trip in Pakistan and be safe>
My uncle who has stayed in many countries tells me stories about his stay in China. He said how they have to be the most rude and racist people in the entire world.
You are absolutely correct. Ordinary people of all countries are innocent sand brotherly. It is the politicians who are crocked and greedy for their survival.
I was born in Pakistan ( Karachi ) but lived in Lahore when we left Pakistan 🇵🇰 in the mid 70s . I hope the both of yous have a great vacation, you're both lucky to see breath taking scenery .
You should post the name of the guesthouse at some point when it is open so that other visitors can hopefully return the man’s kindness by staying as paying guests. 😊
Great video. Nice fresh perspectives on the west of China. Very misunderstood part of the world. Just FYI, covering the pad of the atm doesn't protect you as the keypad sounds are dependant on which keys you press. Just cut out the sound when you use atms on your vlogs. Happy travels!
🇵🇰🇨🇳 Long live Pakistan-China friendship Deeper than seas 🌊 Higher than mountains 🏔️⛰️🌦️ 🍯 Sweeter than honey Pakistan is a great country People here are hospitable and live in peace
First day in Pakistan without money and all those sources , wow what a wonderful experience without planning, That's what i want to say welcome to Pakistan ❤
Interesting~ There are no fence at the border between Pakistan and China. Theoretically, you could just walk from Pakistan to China without crossing the border customs.
Yeah literally just a road that runs through and nothing on either side, the most chilled out land border we have ever seen, almost zero military presence on either side also
China and Pakistan are very friendly and brotherly countries. The Chinese call Pakistani brothers "Ba Tie". The friendship is like steel, so the border between the two countries is almost undefended. What you need to understand is that Pakistan and India (South Asian subcontinent) are both countries that were colonized by Britain. English is the official language of both countries. Because of religious conflicts, Pakistan is not compatible with India. Compared with Indians, I think Pakistani people are more friendly and hope for peace. If what you experienced today happened in India, it would be very dangerous, especially Shannon.
This is fantastic. I went on the same route in 1992. I found Pakistan very friendly. I stayed the night in Sost. In the morning I took the van to Hunza valley, being. The only Lady on the van I was treated to breakfast at a van stop very helpful guys,no hassle with the men.
Thanks kamran you are a real pakistani whom lookafter our country guests,may Allah bless you and people like you ,you made us proud,,,, welcome to Pakistan i hope you have a great time here,love and respect from Pakistan ❤❤
What a pity Tibet isn't on your list this time! It's the best season for visiting there. Hope you come back soon to travel more places in China. We really enjoy your videos.😂 Thanks @Alan_and_Shannon
You will see different level of hospitality in Pakistan never seen before that’s for sure. You have already experienced it in the first day you will get more surprised each day.
You were crossing the highest border crossing in the work to the remotest north most part of Pakistan, so traveling without enough emergency cash was not a good idea. I carry enough emergency cash even when traveling to Europe.
Assalam o alaikum Iam from Pakistan(Lahore). I wanted to see china border but i really enjoyed your whole video and adventure. Hope you enjoy The visit. Stay Safe. 💖
How are you not short of breath, lightheaded, nauseous, and with a pounding headache running around at 16,000 feet elevation? If that ATM station was a scam, they would now have your ATM card and your password. All of your money will be gone. I feel for you both having to sit in those cramp, hot temperature rides. Whoa, what an entrance into Pakistan. If I ever go abroad, I will make sure to have plenty of money exchanged before I enter a country. I am assuming that the SIM card app in one of your previous video does not work for Pakistan. But thanks to you two, the Pakistan people are really impressing me so much. They are very kind and hospitable. Looking forward to the next episode. This is better than the best soap opera.
Honestly no idea🤣🤣 we have been in high elevation towns for a week prior to crossing so maybe that helped. Definitely lesson learned have a good amount of local currency when entering a new country
@@chillimilli5116 Just because the ATM card doesn't work at that particular ATM doesn't give the bank the right to confiscate the ATM card. Illegal confiscation is scam behavior.
Hi, Alan and Shannon! Welcome in Pakistan. A very good but sad story. You stuck your card in the machine and you have no cash even any sim card,but you both don't feel worry. You are always smiling. You are in a safe country of hospitable people. The people of Hunza valley are more hospitable and loving. You will feel, when you stay there. Waiting for your next video. Best of luck my friends. ❤❤❤❤❤
Hey guys, just stumbled upon your video coming to Pakistan from China. Was excited to see your travels into the country but sad to see how it all started. Thankfully Kamran saved the day and I hope there are more good memories to be made. Hope you got your card back and things get sorted out. I realize the videos are usually are old, in some cases even months but still try Standard Chartered or Bank Alfalah bank, or maybe Meezan. These are the ones that work for foreigners, the rest I wouldn't be too hopeful. Whenever you're in Lahore, just let me know. Would love to show you guys around!!
Pakistan and India look very similar and are both very poor, but people there are more polite than Indians. It should be noted that there are terrorist organizations funded by India in Pakistan, so there are security issues. Have a safe journey!
@@milexiangyangli5666To be honest, India’s getting a reputation for funding international terror. There were assassinations in Canada, the U.S. and Australia, all of them confronted India. Modi unfortunately bragged about entering people’s home and killing them during election season.
As a Pakistani, I apologize for any inconvenience. And im very happy to see you smile even when you are facing any trouble ❤️ I really hope you enjoy your time here. ❤️

I was born in Pakistan ( Karachi ) but lived in Lahore when we left Pakistan 🇵🇰 in the mid 70s . I hope the both of yous have a great vacation, you're both lucky to see breath taking scenery .
You should post the name of the guesthouse at some point when it is open so that other visitors can hopefully return the man’s kindness by staying as paying guests. 😊
Great vlog 👍 please share kamran Place link. Is he on Airbnb
Not yet we will link when it is live
Welcome to Pakistan!
Lucky to have met some many incredible people on our journey
@@Alan_and_Shannon I am waiting for your Food reviews, hope you will have world's most delicious foods here ❤️ specially " Biryani "
In Pakistan, guest is a blessing from God. and an honor for the host.
Great video. Nice fresh perspectives on the west of China. Very misunderstood part of the world. Just FYI, covering the pad of the atm doesn't protect you as the keypad sounds are dependant on which keys you press. Just cut out the sound when you use atms on your vlogs. Happy travels!
🇵🇰🇨🇳 Long live Pakistan-China friendship Deeper than seas 🌊
Higher than mountains 🏔️⛰️🌦️
🍯 Sweeter than honey Pakistan is a great country People here are hospitable and live in peace
Long Live Pakistan China friendship ❤❤❤
Enjoy your adventure to beautiful nice mountain view and authentic food of Pakistan 🇵🇰✨
The PHD student and Kamran
First day in Pakistan without money and all those sources , wow what a wonderful experience without planning,
That's what i want to say welcome to Pakistan ❤
It truly was the best welcome❤️
Interesting~ There are no fence at the border between Pakistan and China. Theoretically, you could just walk from Pakistan to China without crossing the border customs.
Yeah literally just a road that runs through and nothing on either side, the most chilled out land border we have ever seen, almost zero military presence on either side also
@@Alan_and_ShannonBecause China and Pakistan are brothers.
Some parts of Europe are also like this.. countries with no border conflict are chilled out I guess
Pakistan, that's our brother.
Oh my
is the border open?when did u go there? which year?MOnth?.
China and Pakistan are very friendly and brotherly countries. The Chinese call Pakistani brothers "Ba Tie". The friendship is like steel, so the border between the two countries is almost undefended. What you need to understand is that Pakistan and India (South Asian subcontinent) are both countries that were colonized by Britain. English is the official language of both countries. Because of religious conflicts, Pakistan is not compatible with India. Compared with Indians, I think Pakistani people are more friendly and hope for peace. If what you experienced today happened in India, it would be very dangerous, especially Shannon.
People of india are brainwashed by their media which lean towards western ideas.
The Pakistan-China border seems interesting.
👍🏻💯♥️🇨🇳 from Pakistan 🇵🇰💚
Good joke bro
😂😂what a joke dude.
This is fantastic. I went on the same route in 1992. I found Pakistan very friendly. I stayed the night in Sost. In the morning I took the van to Hunza valley, being. The only Lady on the van I was treated to breakfast at a van stop very helpful guys,no hassle with the men.
Sounds like an amazing adventure
Have a good trip. China will always welcome you.♥
Thank you! 😃
did alan ever finish his guesthouse? have you got a link? cheers!
wow Pakistan looks like totally out of the comfort zone
You're out of the comfort zone whenever you have no money
It s comfortable they speak good english
🤣🤣
Thanks kamran you are a real pakistani whom lookafter our country guests,may Allah bless you and people like you ,you made us proud,,,, welcome to Pakistan i hope you have a great time here,love and respect from Pakistan ❤❤
What a pity Tibet isn't on your list this time! It's the best season for visiting there. Hope you come back soon to travel more places in China. We really enjoy your videos.😂 Thanks @Alan_and_Shannon
We are unable to visit Tibet just now as it will completely cancel our 2 year visa for China
Pity
You will see different level of hospitality in Pakistan never seen before that’s for sure. You have already experienced it in the first day you will get more surprised each day.
This is a REAL adventure! What an amazing video, thank you❤
Our favourite travel adventure in 2 years
hi Alan and Shannon. i noticed that the video quality looks better now. did you guys upgrade your camera?
Yes we got a DJI camera!
@@Alan_and_Shannon wish you come back to China someday. love and peace from Wuhan, hometown of reganmian LOL
30:09 here I just laughed my ass off hahahahah. “My English is small.” “My Chinese is smaller.”
🤣🤣🤣
Thnx to the Host , from North India🎉
You were crossing the highest border crossing in the work to the remotest north most part of Pakistan, so traveling without enough emergency cash was not a good idea. I carry enough emergency cash even when traveling to Europe.
Yeah but I don't think u can survive without money in europe
Assalam o alaikum
Iam from Pakistan(Lahore).
I wanted to see china border but i really enjoyed your whole video and adventure. Hope you enjoy The visit. Stay Safe. 💖
Kamran's house was like a 5 star resort. Fabulous.
It's absolutely gorgeous and the views from the house are INSANE
@@premkudva what's the name of kamran guest house.
@@makhan-zw1xc from this video I gather it is his private home and not a guest house.
@@premkudva it is a hotel setup
@@AhmedKhan-op6tt oh is that so, I thought otherwise since the vloggers said he had taken them to his home.
Long live Pakistan China Friendship 🥰🥰
How are you not short of breath, lightheaded, nauseous, and with a pounding headache running around at 16,000 feet elevation? If that ATM station was a scam, they would now have your ATM card and your password. All of your money will be gone. I feel for you both having to sit in those cramp, hot temperature rides. Whoa, what an entrance into Pakistan. If I ever go abroad, I will make sure to have plenty of money exchanged before I enter a country. I am assuming that the SIM card app in one of your previous video does not work for Pakistan. But thanks to you two, the Pakistan people are really impressing me so much. They are very kind and hospitable. Looking forward to the next episode. This is better than the best soap opera.
Honestly no idea🤣🤣 we have been in high elevation towns for a week prior to crossing so maybe that helped. Definitely lesson learned have a good amount of local currency when entering a new country
@@Alan_and_Shannon Supposedly, it takes 3 to 5 days to acclimatize, so a week was enough to make you two skykrews.
That ATM is not a scam, most foreign ATM cards doesn't work in local bank atm unless its Standard Chartered atm
@@chillimilli5116 Just because the ATM card doesn't work at that particular ATM doesn't give the bank the right to confiscate the ATM card. Illegal confiscation is scam behavior.
Hi, Alan and Shannon! Welcome in Pakistan. A very good but sad story. You stuck your card in the machine and you have no cash even any sim card,but you both don't feel worry. You are always smiling. You are in a safe country of hospitable people. The people of Hunza valley are more hospitable and loving. You will feel, when you stay there. Waiting for your next video. Best of luck my friends. ❤❤❤❤❤
Wonderful couple, wonderful stories. Keep it up Alan and Shannon ! ❤
Thank you🫡
Hey guys, just stumbled upon your video coming to Pakistan from China. Was excited to see your travels into the country but sad to see how it all started. Thankfully Kamran saved the day and I hope there are more good memories to be made. Hope you got your card back and things get sorted out. I realize the videos are usually are old, in some cases even months but still try Standard Chartered or Bank Alfalah bank, or maybe Meezan. These are the ones that work for foreigners, the rest I wouldn't be too hopeful.
Whenever you're in Lahore, just let me know. Would love to show you guys around!!
We got the card back a few days after! We only filmed this last week. We will be coming to Lahore - send us a message on our instagram 😆
@@Alan_and_Shannon Oh nice! Just did
@@Alan_and_Shannon Maybe the message got stuck in the requests
Wow this is crazy! Great video!
Thanks!! Such a fun adventure
Wow. What an advantage situation for both of you. Thank God for the kind people that both of you encountered. Blessings!
Pakistan and India look very similar and are both very poor, but people there are more polite than Indians. It should be noted that there are terrorist organizations funded by India in Pakistan, so there are security issues. Have a safe journey!

@@milexiangyangli5666To be honest, India’s getting a reputation for funding international terror.
There were assassinations in Canada, the U.S. and Australia, all of them confronted India. Modi unfortunately bragged about entering people’s home and killing them during election season.
@@milexiangyangli5666 both endians h@te us so much just check their comments and their government comments on us
“近朱者赤，近墨者黑。” Pakistan is close to muslins and china which both are humble . While idian is close to USA and Europe.
Thank you Kamran!
As a Pakistani, I apologize for any inconvenience. And im very happy to see you smile even when you are facing any trouble ❤️ I really hope you enjoy your time here. ❤️
