任何时间，任何地点你都可以没有任何安全问题。如果碰到危险，警察会在五分钟内帮你处理所有问题。我38岁，我经常半夜出去玩，女性也可以随便出去玩，安全100%，这种安全的自由真的很重要，午夜以后大城市有非常多的夜市

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

We were thinking the exact same thing 🥰

[@YongLi-np3wg]

​​​@@sunkissedbucketlistHaha , u have to decide Shanghai or Beijing. There is a disdainful chain among expats in China. Shanghai expats think Beijing expats are way to un-fashion. Beijing expats think Shanghai expats are still living in western style life not genuine China.😂

[@YongLi-np3wg]

13:07 This is a 1980's vintage store. People can find stuff from their childhood memory.

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

This store was soooo cool 🥰

[@deanzaZZR]

@18:20 You can see the traditional New Year couplets wishing prosperity, good fortune and health for the coming year.

I've enjoyed your videos. Very entertaining. I'll miss when you leave China.

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

China has been so much fun 🤩

[@utube41952]

You are correct about alot of things I have been there and had tea with some of the residents. There are many famalies still living there. Inside some of the doors are a courtyard then around this are the famalies residents, it is a fascinating history behind the hutongs. Love your sense of adventure and outlook on the world as a whole, keep up with your great videos, Happy chinese new year of the dragon.

[@nuanxing9394]

那里最低的价格1000万美元，有一些普通的大房子要1亿美元，那里是最贵的地方😂，我要出生在北京

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

It’s a magical feeling being in the hutongs like travelling back in time 🥰

[@northenpeace1111]

Yes, the Beijing Hutongs are a beautiful historic place. I had friends who lived in a Hutong and it was cold in the winter, hot in the summer and the toilet was outside. The government purchased the property and now they have a modern flat.

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Oh wow! Thanks for sharing ☺️

[@HZF-de5bh]

The old houses on both sides of this street are very expensive. At their most expensive, they used to cost 50,000-60,000 US dollars per square meter.

[@rainbow2639]

Dumpling with soup inside is called Xiao Long Bao

[@jplin888]

And it goes well with a little black vinegar and ginger.

[@kentlu4781]

both exist in fact. Xiao Long Bao or Guan Tang Bao or whatever with Bao at the end belong generally to the category of steamed buns.

[@bouncingBrain]

That one looks more like Da Long Bao.

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Was so good 🥰🥰

[@maggiema2777]

Happy Chinese New Year from Shan Xi province, I have been waiting for this moment for 10 years since I moved to UK, I am so happy, may year of dragon bring us lots of happiness and prosperity 🧧

[@yonight6871]

You are very brave. Your video is completely different from that reported in the west. BEIJING is different from what I expected. It is very developed. The people are very friendly. Food is abundant.

[@jorogers4662]

Makes me want to visit!

Best wishes from Hubei province,China.

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Same to you!

[@ivyshy98]

almost first, I'll try harder lol :D
nice you finally made it to a hutong to see how people lived for hundreds of years. haven't watched your video yet but seems you went to a more commercial one but the concept is the same. slowly but surely hutongs are being replaced by high rises and shopping malls so it's good to catch a bit of history before it's all gone.
post viewing edit lol ;) - pretty much everything you tried are kind of novelty items and a bit pricey. if you go on the side streets, you'd find places where locals go. even in the alleys where it looks like a residential section, there might be a cafe or restaurant tucked in there. if it's open, you can go through it without worries since it can lead to more alleys or courtyards. people's houses will have their doors closed to the street/alley.

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Hutongs were soooooo cool it’s like travelling back in time 🥰🥰

[@MuhammadZama]

nice

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Thanks 🤩

[@YongLi-np3wg]

24:24 It's 炸酱面，zhajiangmian，noodle with fried soybean paste and some minced pork , salty and savory, very local and traditional.

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Looked like a very popular shop 🤩

[@antwango]

they looked absolutely shattered! I appreciate the enthusiasm and dedication and i understand if youre trying to try and cram in as much as possible!! But Chinas a never ending well! and it can be overwhelming!! in a good way you could stay there for 50 yrs and still not discover everything! Well its impossible to discover everything

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

So much to see and so much to do haha 🤩

[@YongLi-np3wg]

1:50 25:16 They are 梨汤 pear soup. Mixed fruit mainly pear no tea. Very sweet and thick taste. Supposedly good for your throat and lung but no scientific evidence just a traditional habbit.

[@user-od8ku6zn4j]

有科学根据，梨子加上川貝粉可以治療咳嗽的！老祖宗的冰糖梨湯在蘇州等地路邊攤位冬天就有人賣的！😊

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Would love to try it next time 🤩

About the dumpling, everything's bigger in Beijing. That's the first thing I realized when I arrived... Even the birds!

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Haha love that! ☺️

[@HKChineseCanadian]

I don't enjoy walking in the cold but somehow I really like your videos.

[@zhangjin7179]

loving it!!! it is so relaxing

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@lindaramos3325]

Hi guys, so so much yummy food. Wow Take care

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

The food was incredible 🥰🥰

[@CycOp]

10:24 These are Beijing traditional desert/pastry call “Lu Da gon”, literally translated to something like “donkey rolling on the ground”. This is made of a large sheet of sticky rice, spread some red bean paste (the traditional ingredient) or other sweet fillings, then rolled them up and cut into pieces. Since they are made of sticky rice they are quite filling. I saw many different stores selling the same thing in this video. If you are still in Beijing you should give it a try.

[@jlbaseballcards]

Fantastic! Happy New Year to you two!

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Same to you! 🥳

[@danieltan4284]

So glad you guys are om Beijing, as someone living here, I would definitely like to take you guys to eat some local food here as i enjoy all China videos you made

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Ah thanks so much! ☺️

[@AndersonNgai]

In fact, South luogu lane has been commercialized in recent years, and it has lost the appearance of the traditional hutongs in Beijing. I recommend you can visit some parks in Beijing such as zhongshan park,beihai park and jingshan park during the chinese new year.

[@jeun.t]

In Chinese culture, it is not common to ask someone "How are you?" or "How are you doing? （你好吗？ni hao ma），we simply wish them good (你好 ni hao），which is sufficient. Chinese people are reserved, even today in this modern era, you don't really expect to get a reply with "I'm not so good" (我不是很好), regardless if this is really the case of their current wellbeing. This is really different from the western culture that many westerners are not aware of. 😄

[@user-sc2gk9kw5y]

Happy new year🎉🎉🎉🎉

It’s not even midday on Chinese new years in China yet and you guys already have a video up! You are such troopers, I love it!
And yes some of the houses have signs saying private residence :)
Edit: also want to add that there are a cluster of Hutongs with a lot of unique bars too.

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Visiting the Hutongs was a magical experience 🥰
Happy Chinese new year to you 🥰🤩

You could visit the Longtanhu Chinese new year market if you still around in Beijing , you could see lots of traditional performances and foods there etc..

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

Thanks ☺️

[@junhaohu5266]

Haha, yes, it is churro, and they write it there "吉士果"， which is literally translated from churro with very similar pronunciation in Chinese. So happy to see you visiting Beijing! It has so much to offer! Bon voyage!~

So good! 😊

If you have the time and know how to get to those places, each province in China has many beautiful natural landscapes and quaint little towns to explore, instead of the ubiquitous food streets and cities. These days, apart from long distance buses, coaches, high speed rail also bring you faster and closer to those landscapes.

Speaking of No.1 restaurant, the No.1 dish is Spicy Sichuan Hot Pot or Chongqing Huoguo 重庆火锅。It ranks first in Colour, Aroma, and Taste. Have you tried it?

[@sunkissedbucketlist]

No not yet, what is it?

[@michael511128]

@@sunkissedbucketlist Please go try Haidilao 海底捞 spicy Sichuan hot pot. They are now a world famous restaurant with international branches. The special services in the lobby will surprise you. They might do your fingernails while you wait. No kidding. You will have fun. There are like a couple dozen branches in Beijing. Ask your hotel staffs or people on the streets to find one.
Sichuan province is famous for its panda 🐼 and red chilli 🌶. Actually you can visit the Beijing Zoo to see pandas along with the good size aquarium next to it.
