  • I can't believe I got this flower hedgehog hat today. They said it's a day when all women get dressed up and get pretty, and I wanted to be pretty too..! I went to Xunpu village in the eastern part of Quanzhou where they are known as the flower ladies - they wear flowers on their heads and today is a day when everyone goes out for a parade, So I dressed up and joined them...

    It doesn't matter what you do you always look cute. Its always a pleasure to watch your videos and they are excellent at making me feel relaxed and enjoy seeing more of China and its culture. There is so much more that I want to learn about China. If you ever come to the south of Guangxi, my wife and I would be very happy to treat you to lunch.😊

    It’s sooo cute, Yan. No worries 😃 Thank you so much for your amazing sensible and detailed videos. It’s rare as a viewer to experience as being actually there ! I cannot stop watching them … Loving regards from the Netherlands 🇳🇱!

    Thank you for that historical explanation. I had no idea the arabs had been to this part of China.
    It’s nice to learn these little bits and pieces in a fun way.

    💜 Another superb insight into a fascinating cultural experience Yan! I’m sure we all appreciate your slightly painful-looking efforts to dress up, but no need…you already have one of the loveliest faces on TH-cam 😍 I’m so enjoying the series - keep up the great work!

    I love just how naturally pretty you are. One of the rare beauties in China that looks great even without makeup. The head dress looks so cute, very apt for the occasion. Your video is amazing as usual. Really fit the theme of unseen China. So wonderful that you highlight all the lesser seens ethnic groups and their celebration. China is truly an amazing and all encompassing country.
    加油啊妹妹。Looking forward to more amazing videos from you.

    Hello Yan, never thought you would be dressed up like that, but everyone dressed up like that seems to look cute too. Too bad it's so uncomfortable. It's interesting that all are welcome to join in and dress up together.

  • @luxinfinity73
    @luxinfinity73 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Very beautiful and colourful. In the West, the red colour means passion and yellow is friendship, we must remember that when we give flowers as a gift. Yan, what about China, do colours have a particular meaning?
    Thank you!
    🤗💖😀

    • @miaomiaochan
      @miaomiaochan ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Red has a somewhat similar meaning in China, being associated with fire, happiness, good fortune, success, etc. Golden yellow is an important color to Buddhists and traditionally stood for royalty and the earth, although in recent times, it's commonly associated with adult entertainment.

    • @luxinfinity73
      @luxinfinity73 ปีที่แล้ว

      Interesting. Gold yellow I though was associated with Buddhist enlightenment as I have seen many golden Buddha statues. Adult entertainment is always red in the West. In Amsterdam, Holland, the red district is where prostitutes legally work. In French, Moulin Rouge (Red Windmill) is also the title of a famous musical movie about the Moulin Rouge, a place to watch women doing sexy dancing and singing Voule Vous Coucher Avec Moi Cette Soir (Do you want to sleep with me tonight?)

    Thanks so much for this video. You can't imagine how much nostalgia the images bring back to me here watching in London where I've lived for many decades. You see, my grandma was born in Xiamen, Fujian Province but had migrated to another neighbouring country in SE Asia in her early 20s. Some of the elderly ladies in your video reminded me of my grandma and believe it or not, I can actually understand what they were talking in your video because it was the Hokkien dialect they were talking and I learned Hokkien from my grandma when I was a kid. It is not a wonder now understanding why my grandma had always styled her hair the same way as those ladies in your film.

    Absolutely nice celebration. Thanking the sea and praying for safe voyages is a common custom all over the globe. I liked your hair gear , you should use it all day long. Not very convenient to go to the cinema, though! Definitely women in China , as well , talk much more and more rapid than men. Lol

    Yan. The flowers looked good on your head.
    You have shown us a colourful parade. This kind of event will teach the future generations of their roots and why certain diety is celebrated year after year. It is great to see everyone in town and tourists alike take part in the excitement.

    I noticed there were a few bonsai trees in deeper pots, like it was back in the days when bonsai started in China.. The more shallow pots came later when Japan started picking up bonsai. Love your channel, I really got interested in Chinese and Japanese culture ever since I started bonsai 6 years ago. And it's nice to see not so popular and touristic sides of China.

    I recall watching a similar parade at night in Taiwan where a crowd carrying a deity in a sedan chair emerged from a temple and began going through a very tight crowd. All the while, large quantities of firecrackers were exploding all around the people carrying the chair. It looked terribly dangerous to me, but no one else thought so, I guess. It made for a very exciting spectacle, especially because it was at night. That 25 years ago and yet I remember it so clearly.
