Lijiang hands down my favorite town in China. Perfect place to explore surrounding area, many traditional villages to explore, people are simply the friendliest !!
11:22 , 11:51 If you love this water or lake, you will for sure be blown away by Jiuzhaiguo, which is a nature reserve and national park in Sichuan Province. 😊
You guys haven’t even seen 10% of China yet! After you visit xinjiang, Tibet, Qinghai, you will see some really beautiful places. Keep up the good work! And your Chinese have improved significantly!
@roro4787 Iike its name Inner Mongolia has a predominantly Mongolian culture, with a lot of Ethnic Mongolian Chinese living there. You can see Vast Grasslands and go ride horses there, and experience Mongolian culture. However, the land in Inner Mongolia is pretty barren, so after a few days maybe you will feel bored. Gobi desert and Grassland mostly. Weather extremely dry. July is the best time to visit as the Grasslands are green.
Lijiang is a place for leisure. People from many big cities in China go to Lijiang and Dali to relax. I miss two foods in Lijiang. One is the cured pork ribs hotpot（腊排骨火锅）, which is the traditional hotpot of the Naxi minority and is very delicious. The other is the chicken bean jelly（鸡豆凉粉）, which is a bean product. It seems to have no taste, but the more you eat it, the more addictive it is.
I was in Lijiang a few years ago and it's one of my favourite places in China, planning to visit it again. Thanks for sharing this beautiful place with us.
Unfortunately you guys didn’t climb to the top, it’s stunning up there. There’s actually cable car that takes you all the way up in the snowy tops and it’s the world’s highest cableway.
China has lots of different types of natural landscape that you may never experience before. Even the shape of mountains are so different from province to province. Pls enjoy your stay in China
12:31 The calcium carbonate in the water of such alpine lakes will be deposited at the bottom , forming a white bottom, and because of the lack of microorganisms in the alpine lakes, they are all very clear, and finally, because of the surroundings are green, reflecting back into the water, these lakes form a light blue color similar to swimming pools
Beautiful video! Lijiang truly is a gem in Yunnan. If you haven’t explored more of Yunnan yet, consider visiting other spots like Shangri-La and Kunming. The landscapes and cultural experiences are just as breathtaking. Loved seeing your adventures in Dali too. Keep up the fantastic work!
Lijiang is the starting point for you to discover the beauty of southwest China, but it is not the end. There are many stunning scenery in western Sichuan, which is as beautiful as Switzerland. For example, Daocheng Yading, Lugu Lake, Milk Sea, etc. The scenery there is like heaven.

Nice. People forget China has one of the most diverse landscapes in the entire world. In fact, China and the US are the two countries with the most diverse environments on this planet.
Lijiang Yinxiang is a beautiful show talking about how the people look like in lijiang in the past and a love story. All the performers are the local people. The ticket fee will become a part of their incomes. You can see the snow mountain as their background, so beautiful,highly recommend^_^
I absolutely love watching you 2’s traveling shows!! You both are such a cute couple ❤❤. I’m so glad you are enjoying my China! I’m watch every single one of your videos !! 🥰🥰👏👏👏👏👏
You guys are from Scotland - that's why you're not sensitive to the lack of oxygen. I'm from Beijing, and anywhere above 1000 m makes me unable to walk fast, and anywhere above 2000 m makes me a bit dizzy...
Hey Shannon, always watching your vlogs & just wanna say that, in everytime I see you, reminds me of an actress.. you look like the american actress Zoe Kazan she's one of my favorites in hollywood. Coz of that I subscribed & started watching your vlogs, it's nice:) keep it up.
You guys start to appreciate the natural beauty of China. I m now in Shangri-la, staying under Kawakapo Snow mountain, it is absolutely beautiful here. You guys should come here to experience Tibetan culture here without a permit to go Tibet, and also see the beautiful snow mountain here which is the highest mountain in Yunnan at 6880m that no one has ever set foot on the top. Looking forward to your further trip to explore China more! Enjoy!
A few of the trees along the boardwalk there are 500 years old cedars. Usually old trees will have a red info plate tied to the trunk to indicate the age. We were there last Dec. You are lucky it is sunny. We couldn't see far due to the weather.
Welcome back to China again! Enjoy your wonderful day in Lijiang ancient town! The lake you like actually there are lots more beautiful lakes in Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan Province near by Chengdu similar to what you see in Lijiang! Jiuzhaigou is Tibet area you can take airplane from Chengdu to Jiuzaigou!😊😊
I have always wanted to travel yunnan and xinjiang, but I came to Europe first. My sister told me that the Alps view I got in Dolomitie is absolutely the same as xinjiang. A fun dupe to know lol. 😂 now I know I would love xinjiang before I go… Maybe I should visit the Scottish high lands first before I come back home and visit yunnan.
Your next destination should be Jiuzhaigo, Zhangjiajie and Yangshuo in Guilin. Guilin is nearer to Kunming. All these places have beautiful scenery. Zhangjiajie has Avatar mountains, Jiuzhaigo has lakes like what you saw in Kunming, probably more beautiful. One of the Hong Kong movie was filmed here. Yangshuo has both beautiful lakes and mountains. Watch Zhangjiajie in the channel, Sun Kissed Bucket List. The TH-camrs from this channel is from the UK. Another channel that you should watch is Flora and Note. They went to one of the beautiful village in China. Have a nice trip and enjoy your journey.
There is another cable car that goes to the glacier at the top, but you need to make a reservation online, which requires you to read Chinese and have a local phone number.
The most expensive ticket is for the main mountain cable car, and it's nearly impossible to book during national holidays because there are so many travelers, LOL.

Your Chinese pronunciations improved significantly. the one week Chinese class obviously made the contribution.

Glad you had fun after some initial confusion. I want to go to Lijiang too! That tea house lady looks like Gong Li, a famous Chinese actress.
It certainly was the adventure to get there but worth every second 🫶🏼

You have no idea how treasure that is. Lying in bed on a Saturday afternoon watching such beautiful scenery through your videos.

真羡慕气温这么凉快的地区
Wish we were back there now, where we are currently is very very hot…
Oh wow, so beautiful!!!!! Thanks for sharing this journey with us!!!!
Oh my! This is so beautiful, unreal. Thank you for sharing your vlog.
The spot with the waterfalls and mountain background is so beautiful. It looks totally out of this world!
That's an incredibly beautiful place 😮

I think you will definitely go to Yunnan again. Haven't been to Xinjiang yet？Xinjiang Altai is also super beautiful
Was there last summer, nice
Watched your video as I'll be going there next month. Your Scottish accent reminded me of my 6 years in Glasgow 😊 I'm Malaysian.
Enjoy the vibe at night, thanks for bringing us aong!
the performance is indeed really worth of the price. never miss it. it's so amazing
终于有自然风景及旅游视频了，之前几乎都是在城市里走走吃吃逛逛
In Sichuan province , there is a place called jiuzhaigou, jiuzhai valley national park, the water lake there is even more colourful
I have never heard of lijiang before but would love to definitely visit! ❤❤
Lijiang is my hometown, and I am going to study in Uoe this Sep..
Loved our time in Lijiang, good luck for September🥳
学习和生活顺利，小老乡。
I suggest you go to Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan Province. The scenery there is absolutely amazing.
you said what i want to say
Yes, Jiuzhaigou has the best water ever!

拉倒吧，美国的那个基建能力哪儿能和中国相比，光有漂亮的景点，没有路，缆车有啥用
美国算了吧！中国因为多山才美丽，美国有很多平原，种庄稼用的！
@@大湿胸-m8l美国不开发景点，进去国家公园后没有摊贩很少垃圾桶买不到任何水食物，就是为了世世代代去保护自然资源而不是过度开发，基建这点东西美国用了一百年后中国才有，到底谁有基建的能力

I love cities lined with trees.
thanks for upload double subtitle, good job.❤

No way that’s crazy!!
the cities in scotland are only like 30m above sea level, they don't live in the mountains man
@@Tom67Slick But they probably are used to wandering around on the highland
@@Alan_and_Shannon You could try going further up to > 4000 m, e.g. western Sichuan and Tibet, and let us know if you feel a bit dizzy!

Lijiang Old Town is beautiful, went there 3 years ago. The Snow Mountain gave me really bad altitude sickness. Dali too is very beautiful.

I am a Chinese, and this is the dreamlike place i'v never been to and i'm looking forwards to..... you're so lucky guys.
Amazing, thx
I highly recommend visiting Dunhuang in Gansu. In my opinion, 《又见敦煌》 is more moving and heart-wrenching than《印象丽江》
Thanks for adding the subtitles, cause I have to admit that your accent is so unfamiliar for me to grab the meaning.BTW, fabulous sceneries.

Thx for the sharing
玉龙雪山下的蓝月谷，前年去过一次，很美。
More of this, beautiful nature. Dangerous places are not a good choice. Show us the beauty🤞
awesome view!
去年在巴松错（在西藏林芝）看到的也是这样的碧绿色的湖水，真的很美
That accent is so nice
I feel sick over 3500m, and when I get to 4000m, my head explodes!🙉
2016年的时候也去过云南的玉龙雪山，太美了。有机会一定要再去~🤩
there’s a glacier parck altitude of 4680 m in jade dragon snow mointain which is the highest point the tourist can reach
👏👏Wonderful video 👍👍
Jiu zai Gou is the fairy land in China, should go and visit
这应该是玉龙雪山 牦牛坪，还可以坐坐云杉坪和雪山的索道上去看看，玉龙雪山门票可以使用2天还是3天
You look at the cars there every car in China is very modern and in excellent condition
I live in bangladesh, and I enjoy your video
Thanks for the love from Bangladesh❤️
The most beautiful water in China is in Jiuzhaigou Valley and the most beautiful mountains in China is Yellow mountain.
蓝月谷不亚于九寨沟，就是规模小了点。感觉一样。另外吐槽一下😂这两个景点的区间巴士设计的太渣了，属于要钱不要脸得设计。

That kind of glacial lakes can also be seen in British Columbia, near Whistler Mountain.
Garibaldi Lake? I hiked there many years ago.
City visit at Guilin city and ferry tour at Lijiang are amazing too
As a Yunnan guy I think Xinjiang is also pretty beautiful 😂
I prefer they ringing a bell (every so often) like that at 16:14 to attract customers than just shouting incessantly over a loudspeaker.
If I remember correctly, there are three cableways in Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. I guess you went to the lowest altitude section.
7 quid for such nice accomodation again! Far better than the ones you found in big cities :D
Value for money is much better
The show is worth watching😊
why don't you up to the mountain, I think that is included in the ticket you bought at the entrance. nice video
The most expensive ticket is for the main mountain cable car, and it's nearly impossible to book during national holidays because there are so many travelers, LOL.
