Thank you for making this vlog! I’m from Zhangzhou, which is a smaller town that not many people know about. It's been hard to find resources in English to introduce my hometown to my non-Chinese-speaking friends, so I really appreciate having something I can use to show them where I'm from.
@@zhengyingyueelainehuang3747 I’m so happy! I hope I did a good job of showcasing your hometown 🥹🥰
拍的真漂亮❤
謝謝🙏
Welcome to HK ❤❤
We took the Humen/Dongguan Station to Guangzhou South. Then to Guilin. We checked out the Longji Rice Terraces before heading to Yangshuo in a minibus. Our guides took us to some really good places. You visited many places we wish we had more time to see. Oh well, heading back to China for more adventures in October. Maybe Chongqing. Maybe Yunnan Province. And more videos to follow. Xie xie for sharing!
very interesting and looks like a really relaxing and enjoyable trip.. lovely scenes, thanks again for showing us such a beautiful village❤
Yes! Really hope you can visit too!
Are there any buses that run from shenzhen to hongkong after midnight?
Sorry - I'm not too sure! The bus company markets that the buses run for 24 hours, but I'm not sure about the details...
✨ Really Beautiful!
It really was!
Hi can you share the hotel you stayed at? Looks amazing. Would love to take my family there.
@@adriancham yes it really was awesome! This is the hotel: BE’IN Castles in the Air (Zhaoxing Dong Village). I booked via Trip.com! They have a lot of different rooms to choose from 🤩
Can you get nick to do the intro next time
@@samintune14 Hahaha! That’s a great idea

hello , could you please let me know, in shenzhen also can use octopus card?
Hi! Unfortunately Shenzhen does not use Octopus Card. You can use the Transport Code in AliPay and WeChat though. I saw there is a new Octopus-T Union Card that you can purchase from Hong Kong, but I have never tried...
Love your videos! We're panning our Guilin/Yangshuo trip for November so your video was really helpful and timely. Can you share which hotel you were at? Did you need to go to the foreign passport line at both the Kowloon West and Guangzhou South stations to do passport verification? Also do we need a tour guide for this trip to Yangshuo? Did you need to download wechat to pay for things, or cash was ok? So many questions...Thank you in advance.
Hi! We stayed at Lihua Chen's Garden Hotel - we booked it on Trip.com. I have a Hong Kong-China permit, but yes, Nick has a foreign passport so he would have to go through the foreigner counters. Hong Kong West Kowloon is actually the entry point into Mainland China, so you will clear immigration and customs all within Hong Kong West Kowloon, and you won't need to do that when you're in Guangzhou. However, do keep your passport on you, because your passport will be your train ticket! If you don't speak any Chinese or find downloading all the apps a bit of a hassle, I think getting a tour guide would be good! You may speak with the hotel and see if they can organise a car so they can take you around the different sites. WeChat/ AliPay are the main forms of payment in the Mainland, but they will also take cash. So if you don't have WeChat and don't want to download it, you should be fine. Just note that there are quite a lot of services that are linked to those apps, so you may not be able to get access to it!
@@CynnyGoesToChina Thank you for your very helpful and prompt reply!
So glad you put the names of the restaurants in your videos so I don't have to guess or freeze frame the store front just to figure out where the restaurant is located.
More HK food and Restaurants please ❤
Hopefully coming soon :)
Merci for Information
You're welcome!
address would have been helpful
She is only not aware that she has to speak more professionally, it's not a crime. People talk like that in HK even tho we know this place is Hong Kong China. However, personally when I talk to fiends about my country, I refer hongkong as Hong Kong China and China as mainland China. It's more understandable. Almost 100 percents of the HK chinese call china 'mainland', we don't usually say China.
If youre looking for taking the train to shenzhen from hk island, not really difficult. Head to Admiralty Station and directly change the East Rail Line to either Lo Wu or Lok Ma Chau. Then you can cross the border there to shenzhen directly. You can go from Admiralty to Lo Wu or Lok Ma Chau without any interchanges by taking the East Rail Line directly.
What’s the mall?
Can HKDs be used in Shenzhen?
Unfortunately not... they use CNY in Shenzhen. However, if you have Alipay HK or WeChat Pay HK, it should work if it's linked to your credit card!
Nice video! Im heading to SZ via HK this weekend. Last time i went to SZ was 17 yrs ago and it looks so different now. I also heard from my friends in HK that you guys go to SZ more often as a weekend getaway and hotels + food is so much better and affordable. Im excited! Thanks
@@kennethtan1822 Nice! I hope you enjoy SZ and Hong Kong!
I’m going to try the goose today ❤
Yay! Let me know what you think! Try and order the roast goose separately (i.e. half goose / upper / lower), rather than have it with rice... usually get a better cut this way!
.you know how to go to yuen long for eating roaste goose.
Thank you for introduce HK food. Even I am hongkongers , after watching your movie, I still want to eat all above of HK food.
Hope you can try some soon! Let me know what you think!
The GOOSE! 🥸
Hehehe MUST TRY!
That Char Siu 🤤
Sooooo goood ❤
Hello i saw the video that you go 甘坑古镇 and the 24 history academy, how much time roughly did u spend over there? As I’m planning to head over there as well when I’m heading to shenzhen
Hi! We spent about 3-4 hours there as we also had a quick dinner at 甘坑古镇！
Do Filipinos need to apply visa just to travel from HK to Shenzhen (short stay over) then back to HK?
Hiya! It's probably best to check with your local authorities as I'm not sure about all the visa details... but from my understanding, yes, most people need a separate visa to go into China. However, I know China has launched a 72-hour visa-free transit arrangement, so you can have a look and see if that would work for you!
which mall did you go to for the coconut chicken? was trying to figure out based on the coconut shop you went after but my detective skills failed me...
Haha! The coconut chicken was at 卓越 INTOWN Mall! Having said so, they have many branches across the city!
Going to Shenzhen for 1 days soon, thanks for the tips! ❤
You're welcome! Enjoy!
Where we can buy a one day visa in Shenzhen.
Enjoyed your video; would also love to see Hong Kong food tour please! 👍
How did you know! That is the next video hehe :) Coming soon!
Hi I’m Malaysian chinese.I am going to Shenzhen this September . Does most people there know how to speak Cantonese? My mandarin is not that good..
Hi! Not everyone can speak Cantonese, but I believe a lot of people may be able to somewhat understand certain words... the main language is Mandarin. However, if you're able to read Chinese, you should be fine!
@@CynnyGoesToChina tq, I can’t read either. Haha.. I think I just use translation apps..
They can speak Cantonese & teochew too! You have to try水立方水疗massage spa. Decent, not sleazy.
@@CynnyGoesToChina and english😢?
@@ayouazsiham2944 from our experience not everyone spoke English! But everyone was very helpful so you will definitely be fine :)
hello I enjoyed your video, I’m currently working in HK and planning to go for 1 day Tour in ShenZhen do I need to get Visa for me to enter ShenZhen? Looking forward to your answer. Thank you!💚
Hi! Thanks for watching my video! Yes you will need a different visa to the one you have for HK if you’re looking to enter Shenzhen! You can find more information on the China Visa Application Service Centre website :)
Nice ! very informative! what is the exact address of the bus stop if I don't take the MTR please?
Hi! It should be 138 Hennessy Road :)

China is a backward authoritarian country run by a dictator that looks like Winnie the Pooh.

Nice to know other place 👍 Nan Ao Island 😊 what ever you find it 😊 i think it is the good experience to add knowledge . Nice sharing your journey to Nan Ao Island ❤👍 . Thank you so much dear brother and sister 😊🙏
Yep I agree - thank you!
very nice video and thank you for sharing the locations. I will go this weekend :D
Go back yr country …..
China is the future
Nice vlog! Assuming you needed to buy the tickets (HK-GZ & GZ-YS) separately, how much time was there between two trains in GZ?
Hi! Thank you :) Yes, you do need to buy the train tickets separately, but you can easily do that on Trip.com! There's a lot of different train options and times, so there's no set time between the two trains. You can pick the one that fits your schedule best :)
I m going to SZ . Will fly into Bao an instead of flying into HK then to SZ via West Kowloon.
Enjoy!
like your girl-next-door vibe; makes your vlogs very watchable
Thank you :)
Same appreciate your down-to-earthness
Promo'SM 💃
You keep saying you’re leaving from Hong Kong to China. as if Hong Kong is not China. so politically incorrect. Just like the Taiwan separatist faction who a few years ago started to address the other side, not as mainland but China. Does your passport not say China?
On 1 july 2047, its going to be one big happy family!
是的，我也觉得非常奇怪，明明她是中国人啊😂😂😂 但是影片我都看完了 还是拍的不错的！
Calm down
@@jahmes_404 If you’re leaving for California from Hawaii, would you say I’m going to America?
What a fool
How do you know all these places to go? I went there end of Dec. looked like I missed a lot . :)
We did a bit of googling and also asked our hotel for advice! Xiao Hong Shu is also a good place to find info :)
you just love coconut😂but the coconut chicken is the best！！！
Yes it really is the best!
Great that you are proud of your fantastic heritage !!!
I think someone likes coconut
It seems so! Haha!
I highly recommend Impression Liusanjie night show on the Liz River
