  • Twenty kilometers away from the narrowest city in the world - Yanjin, lies Doushazhen, a beautiful small town on the mountainside. I decided to climb up a mountain and discovered a narrow pathway that's carved into the cliff, right next to the abyss!
    Locals use it on a daily basis, and just walk there as if everything is okay..
    For me however, it was perhaps the scariest walk in my life.
    People are so friendly, and this unknown little town also has great food too, they make everything so fresh...
    Join me on my adventure in Doushazhen!

    妳是我看過介紹中國的博主們當中,把中國地理人文風景地方風俗生活等等故事講得最生動、豐富、自然的博主。特別是妳用流利與平易近人的英語,尤其是妳的思路與表達方式,是真的能讓西方人與其他外國人能產生心境共鳴。中國真的很需要像妳這樣博主,讓世界更多元,更精彩!謝謝妳!請妳一定繼續加油,堅定向前!❤

    I'm a 4th generation Chinese America living in Hawaii. My husband is from Sweden so I have traveled and seen much of Europe. Sadly, I've never been to China yet. I speak Swedish and French but sadly cannot speak Chinese, and my heritage is Chinese. :( What beautiful and interesting videos you produce! They are produced with such a lovely sincerity and warmth, I feel I have been able to travel, and see personally these incredible far away places. I just discovered your channel by chance and watched your "Narrowest City" episode with rapt attention. The smaller cities and less traveled towns in the interior of China are just spectacular, the people and food so warm and welcoming! New Fan and Subscriber of your videos! Mahalo Nui for sharing your travels! I look forward to watching all of your posted videos and look forward to your future adventures!

      I hope you don't feel bad about your limited chinese, because in my experience, most multi-generation people in N. America cannot speak the language of their heritage unless it's english. I'm a 3rd-gen, mongrel mix of english, irish, russian, polish and ukrainian who doesn't know any words of my non-English heritage except "Da" and "Nyet" in russian. I know much more mandarin because my wife is first gen chinese-cdn, perfectly fluent in both english & mandarin, as are our children thanks to her and her great parents. In the 90's we moved to hong kong and then to malaysia and singapore. I love it here, we became quite wealthy, far more easily than is possible now in the declining US and we live tax-free (except for sales tax), and I will never again live in US or Canada as we had to choose citizenship so we renounced ours as have a million hardworking happy americans overseas in the past decade. Now proud and "Asian"... so I went the opposite direction of your great-great-grandparents, haha.
      Speaking of languages, an interesting difference between the US vs Singapore & Malaysia is that almost everyone here is fully fluent in at least 3 languages - if you're not, it's like there's something wrong with you... So I feel a little dumb here about that, which I never felt back home. Oh well, I catch a break about my limited language abilities bcuz I don't look Asian, lol.
      Singapore is amazing. You should add that to your travel list as I think it'll blow your mind - and also do bring your oldest surviving chinese ancestors to see how east Asia has changed.
      Ofc, Hawaii is lovely too and I think you're lucky to live there, tho I've not been there for years nor ever on Oahu where most live. Fond old trip memories of the other islands tho, nice ppl too.

      The Word Attitudes Study was just released - it never gets any media attention cos it doe snot report what the west wants to hear. China comes to for almost every thing including trust in the government, believe that the government is looking after your interests etc. One thing it does badly in is trust in the media - so its not like its propaganda.

      ​@@reginewelch8052 You`re aware that this is a propaganda account, very likely permitted and maybe even founded by the Chinese state, with the exact goal of making people forget how utter horrible the People`s Republic of China is?
      Of course the ordinary people in the Chinese countryside are nice. And of course China has an interesting culture.
      But that doesn`t change a thing about the fact that it`s a totalitarian state with no freedom of speech, no free media, a state that constantly ignores human rights, that throws its citizens in prisons or camps or just straight up kills them if they don`t act like the government wanst them to, that does it best to create dependent slave states in Africa and Asia, that constantly surveilles its citizens to a point that it surpassed every nightmarish dystopia one could imagine, that actively destroys its own land and produces so much waste and environmental damage that even its neighbours suffer while it absolutely does not care about what damage it causes, and that does so many more terrible things.
      China is not a good place to visit and to support with your money. Watch videos like this, but watch them with a critical mind, and be aware that we`re being shown exactly what the government of the PRC wants us to see.

    Hello my friend , I have been following your channel for some time now and each video has been wonderful . The view of the cliff road was so beautiful and I agree kind of scary . The old city streets , the food as well the kind friendly people sharing the history is so insightful . I like that they invited you to share a meal with them , treating you like family . A person from the west I think would have a hard time visiting such a lovely place unless they spoke Chinese and even then with that they would have a hard time understanding the fine people and their amazing history . I am glad that we can learn from you and to see the amazing country of China through your eyes .

It is the topography that forces the local residents to construct such dangerous path to connect one place with another. 20km will take an approx. 4-5hrs walk. It is impossible to starve in China even for a fussy eater for there is abundant food to feast on. Thank you for taking the risk and showed us places no tourists go

    I really enjoy your vlogs, the food is fascinating , very different from the westernised versions we get outside of China. The view from the path was amazing I;m glad you did what yo could my fear of height would not have allowed me to get past the shrub at the start of the mountain path. I have also seen in the Philippines. The hanging coffins. The tradition is claimed to have been practicing for over 2,000 years and Sagada people believe that placing the coffins on the side of a cliff, the deceased would be brought closer to heaven/their ancestral spirits.

      This is first time that I see hanging coffins and was very surprised.
      But three weeks ago I had a dream...
      Imagine at the bottom of that cliff... a sandy beach and the most beautiful clear warm sea at the front.Than like windows start to open on the cliff and I realize that was tombs and that was resting place for the people.
      As high as I look it was like the cliff was full of tombs. In every tomb there was man and woman with child. They were looking at me with curiosity and I was looking at them... but didn't like to disrupt the silence so I didn't speak.
      Whit me I had man in wheelchair and I had to climb the small road on the side of the cliff and take that man to room. The room was like cave spiritual place with lots of paintings on the walls.
      In the room there was painting of the man put on like painting stand so I put the wheelchair in the front of that painting and stepped on the side. The man than stand up from the wheelchair and painted a woman over his painting. That was telling me that he wants to be born as a woman in the next life.
      I am from orthodox Macedonia and this dream was very strange to me.

    I must confess that your English is excellent and very easy to understand. Your Chinese, unlike your English, is a language that sounds very foreign to me, the way we see China from Scandinavia. But when you talk to people, I have the impression that I understand them. We are all people of this earth and have the same wishes and dreams even if we use different cultures and languages. Fortunately there is the internet, so we can make our own impressions as citizens of a western country. This protects us from ideological influence by our power elites, who mostly do not mean well with us here in the West or with peoples outside their sphere of influence. In the past, they have always turned us on each other. That is no longer so easy. Also thanks to your beautiful films. Thank you. Greetings, Sven

I learned to drink tea in England. The English way of making tea with loose tea and good quality is, next to Russian, the best thing about tea in Europe.
