China is not only the Han majority, but is also about the other ethnic minorities in this massive country we called CHINA. We all live in peace and harmony, each of these ethnic minorities get to maintain and celebrate their own unique culture. This appropriate named channel 'Little Chinese Everywhere' is what social media should be about. What a better way to showcase what China is all about.
Thanks for the videos. Although there are many western educated Chinese, I have not seen any videos in English made by vloggers showing China where the people live in the ordinary villages, towns and cities. It is nice to see the day to day lives of the folks in the small towns and villages and to see the remote areas in China. Also, thanks for making the videos in English. Your reach to viewers is greatly enhanced with your videos in English. You are showing the real life in China to the world.
She do one thing that i really want to do .Showing some small but not seen place to others.i am aso Enjoying this types of video even i am chinese.I hope one day i also use English or other language to introduce China landscape and food.
@@guchi3265 Wonderful to use another language to introduce Chinato even more around the world. Maybe French for all the former French colonies in West Africa. Let China be KNOWN!
@@bertanelson8062 Thank you for adivice.Actually My English is much better .French is beautiful language.I need to learn New langauge haha.The premise is that my English is good enough
I like that you show moments like your Grandparents and parents asking you when you will get a real job and other human interaction.You have such loving way you view a imperfect world.
Tai people in China is called as Shan people in Myanmar 🇲🇲. Here we got over 10% of Myanmar's population which is around 5 millions.. and water festival is celebrated throughout major Theravada Buddhism country such as Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos and Cambodia. Thank for sharing how Tai people celebrate Water festival in Souhtern part of Yunnan. Please keep creating amazing content.
wasting water while in africa people cant get glass of water to deink thaT UR CULTURE TO WASTE WELL WHEN WATER BECOME MORE EXPENSIVE THAN OIL THIS CULTURE WILL STOP
In India we celebrate Holi same way. We just add color with water now I m learning that water festival that is very much similar like holi is celebrated in these Buddhist county very much possible that indian holi festival also come from one of the Buddhist festival from past.
Another amazing video to me, a reminiscence of the early years of my childhood, in Vientiane, Laos, the capital, but really fewer people than the town of Menglian at my times. Back then at home, we had two tables for taking our meals, Chinese and Laotian food. My eldest auntie, a Laotian from the royal family always wanted me to sit next to her, on the floor, no stool, around a low table. We ate the glutinous rice direct from a little bamboo woven bucket, basically bare hands with the help of a shallow and small metal spoon for soup. My daddy and his brotherly siblings were very "stubbornly" Chinese, as they seldom joint us, and enjoyed their Chinese food in a high table. But, things took a complete turn when it came to Songkran. My daddy would blackened his face with charcoal, got a small truck from his ice factory, and loaded the truck with iced water, and joint in the celebration. He would even walked and danced after the slow moving truck to the rhyme or tune of the beating drums of the following team. By the way, as a young boy I had no problem with the languages of both Laotian and Thai, though I could easily tell the difference in the accents - very uch like my daughter, who speaks excellent Huayu with a strong Beijing accent, though she has never visit Mainland China. I am a Chaozhou, came from the southern province of Guangdong, and believe me, my daddy insisted on sending us to Chinese school, and perhaps wanted us to marry a Chaozhou, very much like my mommy who stays behind in Hong Kong. But, we all "upset" our mommy, as my nephew is the only one who marries a Chaozhou. And I am more pleased to say my two half brothers who are still in Laos, in fact married indegenous wives. I could not even communicate with them in Chaozhou, nor just about any language than Laotian when I visit them some 30 years later since we last meet, and that was through the help of my step mother with the translation. In fact, I talked to her in Huayu. I am bringing my own family with my mommy to Laos this December, in a sense to pay respects to my daddy and my grandma who had long rested in peace in Laos. Ces la Vie, the most popular words among the people in Laos, with its French legacy, though hardly they can speak any French nowadays. That is life, literally in French. A wonderful ethnic group indeed to live among, the Laotian. I sang the national anthem of Laos, the Royal version when I was young, as my eldest auntie wanted her nephews and nieces to live not just as a Chinese, but a Laotian too.
The Chinese translation of Ces la Vie, in a sense should not follow That is Life, in English. I do not know much English, so correct me if I am wrong. We are talking more about livelihood or even the life in itself. So, the Chinese should be, That is Livelihood, That is Life, That is Fate, Admit Our Fate, or even Submit to Fate. After much struggles in life, living in a sense like the early nomadic Jew, in many countries, doing all sorts of odd jobs, only to now a peaceful retirement, at personal level I tend to see the translation as Submit to Fate. What do you think?
17:28 I'm delighted to see our Tai brethren celebrating the same traditions! In Assam, specifically in the Dai villages of Golaghat, Jorhat, Sivasagar, Charaideo, Dibrugarh, and Tinsukia districts, as well as in Arunachal Pradesh, we share these cultural heritage. I hope to explore our ancestral roots someday. Wishing you all blessings and prosperity!
I love how Yan always addresses people with such reverence and cheer. I think people must be astounded by her courage in travelling alone with her camera. My mother was a world traveller who loved travelling to the farthest reaches in Asia and the Pacific. She also had such a manner that people would welcome her to their homes and behind the scenes.
lived in thailand for 6 years and Songkran is the best. If any of yall get to go there are really 3 different Song Krans. They stager the days by area. Start out in Bkk then pattaya then Chiang Mai. Its usually 3-4 days in each spot. Glad she is showing this.
So delightful watching this episode; even the fire department is joining in the water festival! Simply love the friendly and happy atmosphere. Thank you Yan for sharing and bringing this to us❤
I remember watching a Thai drama and there was a part where they were celebrating this festival. I love the connections between the different cultures in China to the rest of Asia 😊
I can't think you enough you are living my dream to visit all over China .I'm almost 55 and have been studying China and all the cultures now I can see all the people and places .thank you again
China es un gran país y con una gran historia/cultura, es interesante como comparten similitudes/influencias con otros países del continente asiático, thanks for the video sister it was nice to see it 🤗
Every time you visit a new village or town, the people always treat you very nice and invite you to have meals with them. They are extremely hospitable people. Much respect for them.
Yan, you have natural talent, your cinematography is amazing. Keep up the excellent work. My wife, son, and I follow you thru China but are happy to keep following you to the rest of the world or wherever you go.
Officially opened again from March 15 for leisure travelers. Plan your trip itineraries, schedule visa applications and even learn basic Mandarin Chinese before flying
Thanks for showing. This clearly shows cultures has no borders, they may speak differently but they share similar beliefs & customs! Such uniqueness is very endearing. The richness of a simple life in the countryside! Thanks again.
I’m oversea Chinese, never visited China yet, hopefully soon! I learned so much about various ethnic groups & cultures in China from your videos. Like many comments from your viewers, I feel as if I’m there with you. Your videos are very natural, enjoyable, educational, and the drone portions are beautifully & professionally done. Last but not least, I love the music as well! Keep up the amazing work! Cheers from California ❤
A+++ again. You have an excellent choice for your music selection. Your trips are so wonderful and make it feel like you are right there! Your narration on your walking trip is excellent to. Thank you!!!
Yan, as a Geographer (Human) I know your subject of study is the Earth, beneath, on and above it every living things on it also its physical features, the Earth as your Lab\. So it is no wonder every Vlog you make the content always mesmerized, You cover it elaborately. Keep doing it we will support you and always keep looking for next video and I am not surprised if your subscribers will reach 1 M in the near future, let us all watch it
You are such an amazing host relating your experience to us living around the world, totally different from some China videos that I watch, I would love to visit but age is against me now.
Interesting they also celebrate Songkran there. And the Dai people definitely look like they share a common familial heritage with the Thai. Thank you for posting this.
Yan your presentations and platform are such an inspiration. The look into various culture's and regions with Eyes Wide Open And Full Of Wonder 🎶 Much Gratitude 🙏
Thank you for the video! Make me miss Thailand so much, I remember when I was a younger I would always hide during Songkran festival as I don't like to get wet and the other kids would chase me around to pour water on me lol it was a great childhood memory! I love all your videos as the people and communities you have encountered are so similar to the community I grew up in when I was a kid.
I love all of your videos! It was so fun to watch everyone celebrating and having a wonderful time together!! Thank you for capturing such an amazing experience for others to watch :)
We have exactly the same festival in India called Holi we play with water , co.ors and flowers . It’s loads of fun with people on streets throwing colour and water
Very interesting that the Dai people are so like the Thai people and culture. Wouldn't be surprised if they are related. Very interesting video! Keep up the good work!!!
Another communal festival where the whole community celebrate together. Now I understand why the Chinese people call strangers Uncles and Aunties though there is no direct blood link. Unlike some western world, where individual's rights override the community. The pandemic reinforce the value of common good. Good video.😢
@@porcheb100 I said some part of western world. Guess u misinterpret the message. In fact, as the Chinese people move to the big city, they are more individualistic. U don't see mass protests against law mandating wearing of mask in east asia. Pls don't feel offended.
Wow, the Songkarn festival was so lively there. And they are also kind enough to invite outsiders to eat together. I really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you. You got 1 LIKE from me. Greetings from Singapore.
That was so much fun. Thank you for showing us a different China than what we see in the news here in the US. I really enjoy your personality. Do you feel lonely sometimes traveling by yourself?
Of course things can happen anywhere, but in every place I have been to I have never had any weird or dodgy situation (luckily). Most of the time I already meet nice people in the hotels etc, so I am never really alone. And yes, China is very safe to travel :)
For over 70 years I have wondered why I feel so much better living near water. Then my DNA showed I am 2% Dai. By studying the Dai people my question was answered. Thank you, my little love, for taking me back to show me my roots and the exuberant people that make up ME.
This festival is as enjoyable as the one in Armenia. I love the temple food. The temple ladies even dressed like Thais. Always appreciate your aerial views of the towns. Thank you.
Such a fun festival! Thanks Yan for the video, so i can enjoy it through the screen 😁 Especially love the multiple gong-hitting device hahaaa it's ingenious! 👍👍👍 Also the monks in water fighting gear !😃😄😄
Your channel is so informative. My goodness another similarity in culture with India 😀 Songkran festival is what we say “Holi” in India. We play it with Colours and Water specially in the Northern part of India.
The Dai people are one of the ethnic groups in China, primarily living in the Yunnan province, near the border with Myanmar, Laos, and Thailand. They are known for their rich culture, including their unique language, religion, and traditions. The Dai people also have ethnic and linguistic ties to other Tai peoples spread across Southeast Asia, including the Thai people in Thailand, the Lao in Laos, and the Shan in Myanmar, reflecting a shared cultural and historical heritage that transcends national borders.
Thank you for countering western anti China propaganda with your wonderful films. Enjoying your stories from the middle of neoliberal-ridden dying europe. Peace.
I keep looking for videos I might have missed haha. I missed these somehow. What a treat for me today.😊 the Dai/Tai people seem beautiful… 😊😊😊❤ I wish you were a twin so we had twice the content 😂😊
I Feel so blessed to have found your channel , I wish the best , good health and happiness to you and your loved ones , Sending you a lot of love from Scotland❤.
since i can't be there in the places you visit i experince them through you thank you for the time and effort of showing us the people and culture your videos are always great thank you have a nice day and be safe
Ohhhh mmmmmy gooood, what a similarity!! We also celebrating water and color festival in feb/ march, superb video, people are so friendly same like my country, food was tasty, good video. Thanku
Wish the Americans, Europeans n those extreme muslims do watch videos of this kind. It really shows how people can live happily together as long as there is respect for each other. They must realise that its destructive to destroy then to live in co existence n harmony. I love this festival it helps one to let their hair down n be together with out consuming alcohol 😂😂. I went to the 1 in Bangkok many yrs ago. Had a great time in the boat. Tqvm for sharing, as always i enjoy from sharing your experience. Beautifully done videos.
I love everything about this channel. Thank you for bringing us so many wonderful places!
This is in the countryside, and Xishuangbanna is more lively in their city. ruclips.net/video/BoswOzMz0eM/видео.html

这就是中国的礼仪文化。如果你称某人为亲戚，那个人会像对待家人一样对待你。
所有人都可以做到这一点。亚洲人可以与非洲人、拉丁美洲人、欧洲人像家人一样亲密，分享美好事物，而不是为分歧而战。
You don't need courage to travelling in china, china is safer than most of coutry in the world😁

Our Myanmar has also Thingyan water festival since AD 800
I have the biggest smile on my face right now!!!
Your channel is so informative.
My goodness another similarity in culture with India 😀 Songkran festival is what we say “Holi” in India. We play it with Colours and Water specially in the Northern part of India.
Interesting Songkran here too. I've only been to Mongla in Myanmar after sneaking in thru Kentung, Tachileik and legally from Maesai.

I seem to remember you got a soaking in Armenia? Another lovely video, inspiring people to travel.
One suddenly realises the tradition is more widespread than might first be supposed!
Ohhhh mmmmmy gooood, what a similarity!! We also celebrating water and color festival in feb/ march, superb video, people are so friendly same like my country, food was tasty, good video. Thanku
Wish the Americans, Europeans n those extreme muslims do watch videos of this kind. It really shows how people can live happily together as long as there is respect for each other. They must realise that its destructive to destroy then to live in co existence n harmony.
I love this festival it helps one to let their hair down n be together with out consuming alcohol 😂😂. I went to the 1 in Bangkok many yrs ago. Had a great time in the boat.
Tqvm for sharing, as always i enjoy from sharing your experience. Beautifully done videos.
