Enjoy your adventure in this extraordinary world of civilization, friends.😊
Thank you 🤩
But not Singaporeans. They believe they are better than Chinese.
Malaysian- Chinese here too.👍🥰😘
From Hongkong. wellcome to China.Enjoy your trip.
Thanks so much 😊
I still remember the first time I saw Pit One, I opened my mouth and got up, shocked, absolutely shocked. You can understand how the wisdom of the ancient Chinese people was. Every Terra Cotta Warriors here is different. So, you are welcome to see it for yourself. It is a great miracle.
This should be one of the wonders of the world 🥰🥰
But it was 2000 years ago, all made by hand. They CAN'T be the same!
I brought my best friend from college in the US to visit China and we toured Beijing (my hometown), Xi’an, Shanghai and Hong Kong. Your videos bring back so many fun memories for me!
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing 😊
Beautiful stunning freedoms Anicent & modern great China 🇨🇳 in the world 🌎 ❤
21:55 the guy behind you is speaking in Cantonese. The local Xi'an people couldn't understand your English, nor his Cantonese🤣
Haha there’s subtitles 😉
I am Chinese, and I want to tell you that Hangzhou, Nanjing, and Suzhou are three places worth visiting. The economy is very developed, and the cities are very beautiful!❤❤❤

It is hard to imagine the strength of the Qin army at that time.
The Qin army was described by other states as "troops of tigers and wolves" (虎狼之师). The state of Qin resembles the Sparta of ancient Greece in many ways, in both of which ppl led a rigidly militant way of life.
他们战斗时杀的敌人越多奖励越多（用割下敌人的头颅耳朵之类的来证明）。中国有句谚语:重赏之下必有勇夫。
那个时候秦朝以战养战，和平一阵子国内人口上涨，土地种出来的粮食不够人吃了，就会出去打仗，一方面消耗人口，一方面扩大领土面积，也有足够的土地给立下战功的将领封赏（那个时候秦朝打仗立功是有土地和爵位赏赐的）。
🤯🤯🤯
大唐不夜城，the sleepless city of Tang Dynasty, I highly recommend it ❤
大唐不夜城和华山一定要去，西安我感觉这两个地方比较好玩😊
华山我一个渭南本地人都一直不敢去😂
Thanks for the suggestions 😊
A huge, unique "live photo" from Qin dynasty. Much much better than the printed photos nowadays.
Insane isn’t it 🤩
Good morning to my lovely couple ❤❤❤ Malaysia
Hello 😊
The First Emperor's necropolis over 20sq kilometers big, they still only managed to scratch he surface of it only. Archeologists say there is a minimum another 200 years of work to be done to uncover everything ! That hill or mountain is actually the tomb of the First Emperor beneath it.
According to the current speed of archeology, it will take about 700 years to clean and restore all the Terracotta Warriors.
@@dearpope I am not talking about restoration that in itself is a whole other chapter, but just discoveries that are yet to be uncovered. According to ancient texts the First Emperor's tomb lays beneath a mausoleum pyramid in the center of a map of China surrounded by a sea of mercury covered up by over hundreds of feet of earth like the hills and mountains they commented on. Scientists and archeologists have already located the location his tomb, but the current state of technology are not allowed to excavate it until they are sure the can preserve the artifacts from air and oxidation. It would require a force field or some sort to protect a dig site of that magnitude.
Do you believe that there're still active traps in the tomb to defend itself? I really hope that archeologists can uncover these traps someday, if they exist.
@@wenyichen5515 The Qin army was already using mass produced brass triggers in their crossbows as far back as 250BCE, those metal trigger parts and arrow heads were found on the Terracotta warriors crossbows intact, but the bow and strings all rotted away. Inside an air tight and non UV sunlight mausoleum they still can be intact and deadly !
@@wenyichen5515 There is evidence that some ancient tombs in China were filled with quicksand or gravel. When grave robbers tried to enter the tombs, quicksand and gravel would fill the tombs and bury the grave robbers alive at the same time. This may be the preventive measures you mentioned. According to historical records and contemporary scientific remote sensing research, Qin Shihuang's tomb is full of mercury. After a long time, the tomb is full of mercury vapor. If a grave robber opens the tomb, he will be poisoned by mercury vapor, which is also a preventive measure.
Although the cherry blossom is native to China, the Chinese flower aesthetic has never valued the cherry blossom and prefers the peach blossom to the plum blossom. Only in recent years the Japanese culture is strong, by the Japanese cherry blossom viewing culture, many places to plum blossom tree peach tree dug up instead of planting cherry blossom trees, too bad.
Video amazing
And the Avatar mountains.
Would love to visit 🥰
@@sunkissedbucketlist why didn't you go to Chong Qing after Cheng Du?
Don’t miss the Shows
The Terracotta Warriors are incredible and surprising. Your explanation is very good, making me feel like I am there. Thank you.
Love your videos, China looks great. How about a "Tips for China travel" video? Like what APP to use, things you learn would make China travel easier! It be popular & help lots of people! ❤
I'll start with a comment section travel tips
1. First of all, since our country's network cannot use foreign software, you may need a VPN. It is a VPN that can be used to pass through the national firewall.
2. It is recommended to use Alipay for payment.
3. Navigation software can use Autonavi maps or Baidu maps. Although they are navigation software, they can also be used to take a taxi.
Well, these software are enough to support any corner of China.
Great suggestion! 😊
LOL Mixue should definitely pay you for advertising
Hello Mixue, where are you?! 😊😂
I was there a few years ago. Glad you guys find this city fascinating.
It’s insane 🤩
Loved watching this! You're so lucky to have attended two weddings! They were so colourful and 热闹!
Weddings? We certainly missed that part lol 😂
@@sunkissedbucketlist ahh I was commenting on another video and I guess I hit send when it had finished and your body started! 😅
Roujiamo is also my favorite. Welcome to travel to Hangzhou.
Hi guys, very beautiful country and the soup looked so so delicious. Take care
Saw the Warriors back in 1989. Wow, they've continued to develop the site. Only one was there when I visited. Hope to revisit soon.
Oh wow! 🤩
8:19 Thanks for sharing. I didn't know that.
I thought all of them were broken and the archaeologist had to reassemble them.
Good to know one had survived.
I just thought of it. It would be nice decoration in my backyard. 😁
就是碎片，从新拼接的。
@@wangleo6788 No - one of them survived intact.
According to the current speed of archeology, it will take about 700 years to clean and restore all the Terracotta Warriors.
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Looks like a wonderful trip to the Terra Cotta site! I was there last month and was truly impressed by the grandness.
Yes it was!
You guys always going to Mixue just reminded me that I recently learnt it originated from Zhengzhou, the city I was born in. If you guys have a chance, should check out the Shaolin Monastery in Henan province, which is the province Zhengzhou is in.
Was also recently told by my relatives that Zhengzhou is the newest city to be classified as 1st tier. Not sure how up to date the info is but just seeing if this might tickle your fancy in checking it out.
Oh wow that sounds so cool, thanks for sharing with us 😊
@@sunkissedbucketlist if you guys do decide to go, fill free to contact me for some local food recommendations
You guys were really enjoying life in China, very envious!!
But we take you with us through our vlogs hehe 😉
True
You guys may have entered the wrong side of the site. I remember the entrance is pretty close, and you're supposed to enter from Pit #1 with the grand display of hundreds of terra cottas.
They said they tried to avoid the crowd in pit 1. That's why they started from the others.
Yeah we did it the the opposite way round haha 😊
We most Chinese are proud and grateful of Qin Shi Huang秦始皇 and our ancestors for our unique, vast and long lasting civilization. Thank you so much for taking us along the journey. Really appreciate your sweet personalities. You are too cute when you two fighting for the ice cream😂.
别代表我
@@phelgawang5660 秦始皇怎么你了，火气这么大？

The Chinese Odyssey continues, great recording of the warriors. Did get to walk in ahead of the massive queues because of your visitor status?
Most enjoyable, thank you guys😀
Half an hour's drive from Xi'an High Speed Rail is worth exploring in Huashan
Yassss, Terracota Warriors history is captivating and amazing. And everywhere you go around China or any other country, you two gives us the perfect explanation with lots of enthusiasm. It's so nice to follow you and enjoy your adventures, Libby & Taz. Thank you. Let's gooooo!!!
Thank you for this most interesting and captivating video. WOW! Out of this world! Must be seen.......
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
you two are such an energetic, enthusiastic, open-minded and lovely couple! i've followed almost every single episode of your China vlogs and i must say they're so refreshing and inspiring to watch! welcome and enjoy the rest of your adventure in China! way to go!
That’s so kind, thank you very much 😊🙏🏻
MIXUE：I'm come back~😎
Hello from Glasgow. I just want to say that you are my favourite vloggers although I've seen many other wonderful ones. Love your vibe! Thank you so much for the hard work on this. Your videos must go viral soon!!! love you guys! take care ❤❤❤
Aww thanks for the kind words 😊🥰
I'm glad you visited the Terracotta Warriors and had the recently popular cultural creation ice-cream😊😊 But it's a bit of pity that you didn't get to see the Bronze Chariots and Horses, which are really quite impressive. This museum park even built a special exhibition hall for it. By the way, hot=热（pronounce d as 'the'）cold=冷（leng）ice=冰（bing）I hope this will help you😎😎
Thank you ☺️
morning❤
Enjoy this visit with you guys so much.
If Emperor Qin wakes up now, he will probably laugh 😂 his head off over these crazy tourists.
Yeah, I doubt that he would think his tomb would become a tourist attraction after 2000 years.😂
He would be furious to see ppl using different charging ports (Micro USB, USB-C and Lightning). 🤣🤣🤣
@@cosmoobserver3416 He'd make sure there was a unified standard, (just like what he did with written language, weights, carts & carriages etc.) and that no corporation could monopolize it and pillage monopoly rent from the people. Such was the vision of the first emperor.
@@treg9492 Make 秦始皇 Great Again!🤣
Imagine 😂😂😂
I'd recommend an old film A Terra-Cotta Warrior (1990), an early time-traveler story in which a terra-cotta warrior revives to find himself in modern society. A must-see for fans of Chinese history and time-traveler romance. The warrior Meng Tianfang was played by Zhang Yimou, indisputably the most revered film director of China who also directed the opening and closing ceremonies of 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Emperor Qin Shi Huang didn’t go along with the traditional human sacrifice for royal tomb, he’d rather have this army. I admire him so much.
Those were brutal times period, I believe someone or his cabinet must had convinced him making these soldiers, avoided the traditional human sacrifice which saved many lives. An eternal army that don't die guarding his tomb must sounds more intriguing to him. The soldiers still being alive can continue protect their country while he is at rest.
This tradition was almost abandoned outside barbaric Qin, and Qin Shi Huang adopted it again to the worst extent. Do you know what happended to his consorts and craftsmen? Friend you should find someone else to admire.
@@sola4393 He killed all this craftsmen and workers who constructed the tomb, and his consorts were sacrificed too after his death. He's and his empire are the example of brutalness for all generations before and after him! Recently several tombs of tens of thousand killed captives were found in Hebei province, where the campaign of Changping happened. 400,000 Heibei soldiers were buried alive!🤮
@@wenyichen5515😂刻意用英文回复么？
并没有同期的史料记载工匠的下落。至于妃子，是秦始皇的儿子胡亥杀的，胡亥几乎杀光了秦始皇的所有子嗣和妃子，为了避免同族的人反抗他自己，这与秦始皇并没有直接关联。
至于长平之战，杀俘在古代并不是不存在的事情，即使在欧洲也常发生：邓巴战役中英格兰屠杀了苏格兰俘虏、玛雅人和印第安人不仅是士兵就连平民也遭受了灭族之灾。唯一的夸张的是，长平之战的规模是40万，可是当时的中国就已经可以养活这么多兵力了，这又不是为了刻意要杀40万人祭天，而是彼此的战争规模就达到了这个人数体量，如果欧美的战争体量也能达到这个人数，那你也会看到欧美造成40万俘虏死亡的场景，但这就也就是战争，多少比欧美在二战弄死上百万犹太资本家和平民的场景要合理一些。
而且如果仅仅是4万，就没必要杀俘虏了，就是因为40万才只能杀。当时秦国是举国力展开的长平之战，秦朝自己也没有多少粮食储备，都不用说看管的兵力，都没有粮食来给40万俘虏，所以留不下。至于放回去……之前的战争白打了么，把对方的有生兵力放回去，重新组织防守……这不是开玩笑么，太圣母了。反过来，秦国被赵国打败，并被俘虏40万，赵国也只能选择杀俘虏。彼此都耗尽了国力，谁都养不起40万俘虏。这本应是一场更惨烈的战争，但谁能想到40万赵国士兵投降了……
In Chinese history, the evaluation of First Emperor of Qin is mixed.
He killed many intellectuals at that time, but most of them were those who were good at deceiving and inciting the people with rhetoric.
He burned a lot of books, but most of them were about witchcraft. He kept the really important books in the palace.
(Some customs at that time were different from today's and cannot be judged directly by today's values. This is just like the Egyptian Pharaoh also killed a large number of workers who built the Pharaoh's tomb, but today's Western historians will not use this incident to evaluate an Egyptian Pharaoh. Not a tyrant)
He built the Great Wall, which blocked foreign attacks for many subsequent dynasties.
More importantly, First Emperor of Qin unified writing and weights and measures, which laid the foundation for China's long-term unification.
Of course, China has a long history and has had many civil wars, but this unified pattern has always existed and been maintained.
First Emperor of Qin made great contributions to the long-lasting spread of Chinese civilization, because the unified pattern helped preserve the uninterrupted Chinese civilization.
Whether some people like it or not, this is the truth!
If Europe had the opportunity to have a person similar to First Emperor of Qin, I believe the current world situation would be very different, Europe would be stronger! This is also one of the reasons why Alexander the Great is remembered in history.
First Emperor of Qin's achievements do not need to be liked to become real.
There is no point in discussing "facts" in terms of "like it or not".
love from Chinese fans in York, best wishes
Thank you 🤩
32:50 wow you passed intermediate level test for your chopstick skills... next level peanuts, beans, rice grain...😀
Hahah thanks 😂😂
Really recommend you to visit 长安十二时辰 in Xi’an, which is a Tang dynasty theme park
The Qin Dynasty was a short but powerful dynasty. Qin Shihuang (The First Emperor of Qin) not only left the Terra Cotta Warriors, but also built an unimaginable palace. It is said that all the trees in a mountain were cut down to build the palace.🤯Unfortunately, this palace was completely destroyed by the rebels afterwards.😢In addition, he also used soil to pile up a large mountain on the flat ground as his tomb.
Of all the travel blogs on China, I find both of you the best as both of you are always smiling, cheerful & positive . Love watching your vieos
Aww thank you 🤩 🥰
From Los Angeles, wishing you a great time in China!

Wonderful😊
Love you. Have a nice time in big China❤️❤️❤️
Thanks ☺️
It's a real pleasure watching your videos. A lovely couple travelling in a lovely peaceful country 👍👏❤️🇨🇳
At the same time, Qin Shihuang built a large number of national engineering projects, such as the emperor's mausoleum in Mount Li, the unparalleled terracotta warriors and horses, the Epang Palace in Xianyang, the ancient highway running through the capital to the border-Qinzhi Road, and the Great Wall to defend the Huns in the north. Due to the construction project, a large number of civilian workers were requisitioned, which made the people miserable and the world in chaos, and soon the revolution broke out. Although Qin Shihuang founded the first unified empire in China, the empire was very short-lived. After Qin Shihuang's death, the empire he founded soon perished in revolutions everywhere.
18:12 it took about 38 years to build the whole Qin Shi Huang’s tomb, including terracotta warriors, underground palaces…. How long it took to build the terracotta warriors is not found exactly documented so far.
You see, the Qin ruled whole China only for 15 years. This work must have started some time when the emperor was young and stopped before the empire went down.
Woahhhh 😮🤯
Very glad to see that you were able to visit my hometown, but it is really a pity that you didn't see the bronze chariots and horses that have move to other places. Your videos are also very popular at bilibili, maybe you can create a bilibili account.
Welcome to Xi'an, China, I really like watching your vlogs.
The first one is 英偉雄武🎉
It's simply jaw dropping if you are fortunate to be able to visit. Scale is something that cannot be judged well on TH-cam. I suggest visitors climb the unopened tree covered mausoleum hill itself to stretch the legs and get a view of the surrounding historic landscape.
Yes that’s very true! When you see it in person it is truly 😮😮😮
There is a story about the Terra Cotta Warriors. A staff member in charge of photographing the Terra Cotta Warriors found a fingerprint on the lips of the Terra Cotta Warriors when he was photographing one of the Terra Cotta Warriors. At that time, he felt a sudden touch, that is, the craftsman who made the Terra Cotta Warriors more than 2000 years ago had some connection with modern people in this way.
I guess when they run the fingerprint, they wouldn't find a match in the current database😂
It’s incredible 😮
You are one of my favorite vloggers. I really love your spirit. You are the best!
Ah really appreciate it, thank you 🤩🙏🏻
Amazing
Love how your positive energy makes every trip so engaging❤
Thank you both for such an incredible video.
In fact, the Terracotta Warriors were coloured when they were first unearthed, but only grey because of oxidation, so you can imagine how real and spectacular they were when they were first built!
so amazing ！
Amazing..
Really appreciate your open-mindedness
😊😊😊
One of my favourite travel TH-camrs. You guys rock. Love all your videos, always with a positive vibes, smiling and having a great time. Honestly I am addicted to your channel. Well thanks for sharing your trip to the Terracotta warriors. The area is very huge. Lots of history to discover and lots of great food. Will be planning to go to Xi’an soon. Well I hope you are having a great time in China. Keep enjoying. Take care! Cheers! ❤
🎉🎉nice trip, nice guys! Well done!!❤
Such an amazing place 🥰🤩
谢谢你们
The warriors and great wall have one thing in comment, ordered to be built by One emperor, the mighty Qin emperor.
The great wall actually was started building before Qin Shi Wang. Sections were built by the warlords up north before he unified China. I think Qin Shi Wang credited for linking those sections together and extended it. And then the emperors of the later dynasties also kept extending it to today's scale.

Your videos are highly viewed on tiktok and Bilibili in China.😀
Wow seems such an inadequate word! What an incredible piece of history!
this definitely should be the 8th wonder of the world 😍
Yeahhhh,u get the digital guide, it’s so necessary!!!!!!
we totally agree 👍🏻 and it’s sooooo useful 🤩
best quality
Created by the 1st Qin Dynasty Emperor (Qin Shi Huang) 221 BC to protect him in the afterlife. 👍 Awsome! keep these coming!
😊😊😊
they should make movie where the emperor somehow in the past he successfully mastering the art of immortality and suddenly came back to live and get out from his tomb in today China and with his magic suddenly all the statue came back to live and start conquering the world
电影没有，但是有很多穿越秦朝的小说。
你可以看一下成龙主演的电影：神话
Amazing city!
I also like Mixue’s orange juice!And Mixue’s lemon tea is also worth a try. Lemon tea is the most popular drink in Mixue. It’s only 4yuan, never raise the price.
incredible !
😊😊😊
When you buy something in a private store in China, you can try to negotiate the price. For 110 yuan, you may only pay 50, 80 or 100 yuan to get it.
Always entertaining and informative videos from you guys.
glad you like them 🥰
Nice
Thanks

Thanks!
Thank you 🤩
I signed up for a youtube account just to like and comment on your videos. You are the only people I follow.
Best comment! 😂 thank you!!
It was used to be a big thing to build a tomb for a king. The king usually started to building a tomb for himself/herself very very early of his/her reign, and usually was lasting many many years. And it is still considered there are a quite bit of fortune having been buried in a royal tomb.

多謝！
Thank you 🤩
I came to xi'an during Labour Day this year. I really like the food there.
An interesting fact is that the whole Terracotta Army faces the South-east part of China. Because during the Qin Shi Huang unification war of China, the remaining six hostile countries are on the south-east part of China. Qin Shi Huang believed that the Terracotta Army faces the South-ease part of China will help him to keep an eye on and protect him from the attack from the six hostile countries or whatever left from the six hostile countries.
蜜雪冰城 my favorite place
Loved your open and calm optimistic mindset and your journey was full of joy. You are very good at finding the good things in life.
Yesterday I watched a video of a German couple travelling by bicycle in Xinjiang. They came with a deep prejudice against China and when they met locals who didn't speak with them, they said it was the result of government oppression. When they pitched a tent in the wilderness to overnight and were discouraged by the police, they said it was the government surveilling them. When they saw newly built houses in Kashgar, they said it was the result of the government destroying the traditions of the Uyghur people and tearing down old houses to build new ones. When they saw the old city, they said it was rebuilt by the government to make money from tourism.
This pair of Germans really can't compete with you.
You went to see the Terracotta Warriors, which is so so great!!! but it's a pity that you didn't go to see the large-scale performance of "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" in Huaqing Pool, Lishan Mountain, located next to the Terracotta Warriors. The performance is a very wonderful large-scale live performance. With the actual mountain as the stage background, it tells the legendary love story of Tang Minghuang and Yang Guifei in the evening. Going to see it once will absolutely amaze you!
Lovely place in China 😍
