Tiger Leaping Gorge is absolutely unbelievable. The natural beauty of this region of China is so stunning… we hope you enjoy the 3 part video series on our hike ❤
I've been waiting for your Tiger Leaping Gorge video. From your photos, I think you are staying in a youth hostel. There are many foreign friends there.
Repeat for attention: So when will you visit the Honghe Hani rice terraces? I keep asking you about that for a reason: you have not experienced Yunnan until you do, and it will change your mind about agriculture, human ingenuity and civilization is a very positive way. This is my major suggestion for visitors to Yunnan.
Hi Naomi and Luke, the very fact that Naomi carries with her an opened small basket on her back indicated how much you guys trusted the security in China, that people will not steal things from behind. Sadly that's also something you could rarely find in the western hemisphere. I feel really proud that you guys are showing the real China (even though I'm not from China) and how you guys have became so relaxed travelling inside China as compared to when you first touched down into China. I'm keeping my fingers crossed on my 6th trip to China in few months time. My wife and myself agreed that visiting other western countries are not in our agenda nowadays looking at those protests, and instability "politically".
Most foreign tourists who come to China only travel in cities, but in fact, there are too many world-class natural landscapes in China that are worth exploring for energetic tourists like you.
I really admire you for climbing such a high mountain without an oxygen tank 😂 The scenery in China is polarized, one is the prosperity of big cities, and the other is the extraordinary workmanship from nature that you are now immersed in, which is very beautiful. Yunnan scenery is just the tip of the iceberg, there are more beautiful scenery waiting for you to explore, sincerely wish you a pleasant journey.
Brave！These places are home to China's ethnic minorities. To get out of poverty, the government has invested in roads and amazing bridges, and now many tourists are free to enjoy the beautiful scenery, one day I will go on a drive trip myself
Well, the natural scenery in Xinjiang is great, especially in northern Xinjiang. I have been to over 40 countries around the world, but I am still amazed by every season in Xinjiang. Of course, this is a highly controversial area, but I can assure you are very safe there. Xinjiang is a great proof that China is indeed a fusion of different ethnic groups and cultures
I hiked in Tiger Leaping Gorge 2 years ago during the raining season. It was so cloudy and raining all the time. I felt I was like in heaven. Thanks for your video to remind me all the good memories.
Just like the picture of building a house and moving bricks in your last video, China people are hardworking and brave. This is the spirit of this nation. Welcome to China and wish you more beauty.
I watched your video on Bilibili first, and then watched it again here😋. Many reposted videos have several times views than your original videos. This is why you are being recognized by more and more Chinese people.haha
I think you both are the most adventurous tourists to China, of all the tourists I have watched on YT. Hope you are enjoying yourselves and making memories with the friendly locals along the way!
actually even in Tibet rural area or desert in Xinjiang still has 4G/5G signal covered. around 20 years ago, China initiated a project. each village in China must has road, power and water connected, now 4G/5G network. with these infrastructure, it's helpful to eliminate the poverty from rural area.
unfortunately in capitalist usa, if a project doesn't have a good return on investment in 5-7 years, it's not worth doing. that's why infrastructure is crumbling and more and more people are getting left behind. after visiting china, I finally understood why the government calls everything "the people's"
@@ivyshy98 you are right, China is socialist country, actually China has 40000 kelometre HSR which is owned by GOV are in debt. all the public transportation don't make money. the west country can't understand. but the public transportation can boost the ecomony for the poor area in the west and north of China. China encourage the rural area to develop the traveling ecomony, you can see lot of demostic tour groups in Yunan, Guizhou, Xinjiang and Tibet. the people in rural area can also sell their product (organic friut, mushroom, meat, chicken, duck, etc) online through the supper advanced express network to earn money. as a famous businessman Mayun (founders of Alibaba group) said, US has lots of great company, like Apple, Intel, Microsoft, Google etc., US earn tons of money from the world, if US GOV would spend some of money to build its own infrastructure for his people, US shouldn't look like today. however seems US spent too much money on national defense, weapon, war and overturning the GOV of other country other than fous on the needs of his people.

I 'm living in guangzhou. It is rare to see some foreigners travel in such depth in China , far away from big city. It is great。hope you will have good time in China.
Hi Naomi and Luke, we think you are great guys! You have good attitudes towards new things and being very appreciative about good places, good people, good food, good things…. we love you and wish you all the best in your adventures, keep it going jia you 加油 !
A famous ancient Chinese poem says "五岳归来不看山，黄山归来不看岳". Which means "The landscape of the Five Famous Mountains tops those elsewhere, and the landscape of Huangshan Mountain belittles that of the Five Famous Mountains". Speaking of mountains, in China there we have 五岳(wǔ yuè, "Five Famous Mountains"), each of them has magnificent and gorgeous views and grows different traditional Chinese culture, Kungfu, religions. Covered by temples of different religions such as Buddhism, taoism, Confucianism. Besides the 五岳 my favourite is 黄山(huáng shān, Mount Huang) in Anhui province. Climbing the Mount Huang, the pretty scenery of "sea of clouds", "wondrous pines" and "fantastic rock peaks" and so on definitely worth a visit. The submontane ancient village 宏村"hóng cūn" is also fascinating. Fully recommend you guys❤
Road building in the rural areas is extremely important in China. It ensures that the remote areas have access to all the infrastructures as the city dwellers do. Children might walk those roads to go to school; villagers might use the roads to transport their yieldings, the elderlies might need those roads to get to the hospitals…etc.
@@TwoMadExplorers I’m Chinese American. Love your Channel. Love your open mindedness and honesty. Love Germany. I’ve been there many times for work purposes. German engineering is the best in the world, as well as your dogs, lol. Enjoy your trip and safe travels everywhere! ❤
Great spectacular views. Did you notice the electrical lines overhead? Access to electricity and the internet everywhere, amazing. Cheers from Edmonton Alberta Canada.
Hi Naomi and Luke, China is so big that there are so many beautiful sights. If you want to climb mountains, you can go to Huangshan in Anhui, Huashan in Xi'an, and Siguniang Mountain in Sichuan; if you want to see water, you can go to Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan. The western Sichuan Plateau and Tibet are both worth visiting. But don't go to those tourist cities because they are too commercialized.
I also came to Tiger Leaping Gorge October last year. When you guys mentioned about phone signal and internet access in Europe, I rmb I couldn't even pay with credit cards in some of the Christmas markets in the city centre of Germany because the vendors told me they couldn't connect their credit card machine with internet😅 It was in 2022.
You can't blame Germany for this, as Huawei's 5G is being forced to be boycotted by the US, resulting in them having to use worse and more expensive equipment
You are really great. China is really too big. It may be impossible for Chinese people to enjoy all the beautiful scenery of China in their lifetime, but you two can enjoy the beautiful scenery of China in a limited time.😊😊
Hi Luke and Naomi! You guys are so cute, love you guys! As you will be in China for several months, I suggest you to give Northern China a shot, I'm from DALIAN, A romantic seaside city that combines Western style and Chinese modernity！Pretty sure you will love it!
that's what you call an adventure! not many foreigners will be able to do it because it takes a few extra steps to get everything set up but you guys are pros now and know how to tap into local help 😅. probably won't be forgetting that hike in a long time lol. congrats for conquering the mountain! I was getting a little worried for you guys at the start 🤣 also that lady selling sweet potatoes was just using a personal account so that's why you can't pay with a foreign credit card. you need a business account to be able to accept foreign credit cards. there are ways around this, by setting up a 'virtual' chinese bank account but it's just easier to carry some cash around.
Don’t know why I so touched when you pay the old granny in cash as you thought she may not very good at use e-pay . Thank you for letting me know again some familiar place ,I really regain something on traveling
You are very welcome to China. I really like watching your videos. Thank you for bringing different comments.❤❤As a Chinese, I'm very happy that you can come to my hometown.🎉🎉I hope you have a good time.
I hiked the Gorge in 2005 and 2007, and there was no big bridge in the background then. It was remote, peaceful, and an amazing place! The high trail is the way to go! Hiked over from Lijiang and ended at Sean's Guest House.
Thanks for sharing your journey exploring the Tiger Leaping Gorge. It is amazing both of you explored the Gorge. More than 15 years ago, I visited Kunming, Dali, Lijiang, and Shangri-La, but on group tour, the guide point to us where the Gorge is, up on the road on our way to Shangri-La. Love your videos. Keep it up!
Nicely done, keep going! Tomorrow, when you arrive middle tiger leaping gorge, don’t forget to sit down on the stone beside the bank of the river and take off your shoes and socks. Then, seeing the water, listening the waves, thinking that why the river is so yellow. If you understand the reason, please tell us. Have fun 😅
The Tiger Leaping Gorge is very beautiful, but there are many other natural landscapes like this in China, and even more beautiful elsewhere. China has a land area of 9.6 million square kilometres and a complex and varied landscape, so if you want to get a fuller picture of China's landscapes, bloggers can try exploring the west and north of the country, where the people and the climate are different, and where you will experience very different views!
Wow! What an amazing video clip capturing superb sceneries. You deserve my respect. All the best to both of you. Looking forward to more clips from you. Take care lovely brave couple!🍻
I visited tiger-leaping gorge in April, 2024. It was quiet cold and drizzling all the time. I did not have time to hike. The scenary was amazing and it was great experience in Shangri-la.
Cute backpack, cute Naomi🥰 Food is truly expensive,understandable though. But those flags with inspiring words, cliff coffee shop and human-made photo shooting spot, I think, are too delicate and less natural. What really touched me was the nature itself and smiles of these lovely people.
I've been following your China vlogs and this is probably the most scenic of all your destinations and I love it. Been to Tiger Leaping Gorge in year 2008 but only visited the rock where the tiger was said to leap over the gorge, while on our way back after climbing Haba mountain (was an avid trekker then). Your video has shown me what the upper trail is like 👍
Your vast knowledge is truly impressive. I searched the Chinese internet for an explanation of why the water in Tiger Leaping Gorge is yellow, and the speculation I found there matched exactly what you mentioned in the video.No wonder you all are true explorers!🤩
The scenery was spectacular, but the weather was not very good that day. It would be more beautiful if it was sunny. Thank you for sharing the beauty of the journey.
What a great hike! Kudos for your efforts! 👍👍👍 This might be part of the ancient Tea Horse Trail. Tea originated in this area and in the old days the local people would trade their tea for horses in Tibet. Even now, if you go further north to Diqing (aka Shangri La), you will find Tibetans there and they hold weekend horse races (not for tourists, only among themselves). Happy travels wherever you roam and thanks for sharing your adventures! 👏👏👏
I think you should exercise regularly. Climbing mountains is not an easy task. I have seen two foreigners climb Huangshan Mountain. They are very confident, and the result can be imagined.
Hi guys....fantastic journey with both of you , looking forward to next footage. As usual, your honest and spontaneous comments make the cover so much more interesting and enjoyable. Take care. Catch you soon.
The south bank of the Tiger Leaping Gorge scenic spot is Yulong Snow Mountain, the main peak is 5596 meters above sea level, and the north bank of Haba Snow Mountain is 5396 meters above sea level. Tightly bound by the mountains on both sides of the river, the width of the river into the gorge is only more than 50 meters, and the narrowest tiger leopard leap over it, so the name Tiger Leaping Gorge. The canyon is 80 kilometers away from Lijiang city, the canyon is in the upper reaches of the Jinsha River, with a total length of 17 kilometers and a roundabout road of 25 kilometers. The vertical height difference of the canyon is more than 3900 meters, which is one of the deepest canyons in the world.Will you go to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain?
If you like to see the nature wonder in China, Huang-Shan(Yellow Moubtain) is the place you can't miss. Avatar scene was base on that. Correction: Zhang-Jia-Jie in Hu-Nan province is the right place.
So when will you visit the Honghe Hani rice terraces? I keep asking you about that for a reason: you have not experienced Yunnan until you do, and it will change your mind about agriculture, human ingenuity and civilization is a very positive way. This is my major suggestion for visitors to Yunnan.
Wow! It is in this place that archaeologists study the coffins suspended on the slopes, left by one of the peoples of the region, who were said to know how to fly. I saw an archeologists chinese documentary exploring this region. Ask, the people about the story of the Tiger canyon
Hello, beautiful lady, you are talking about something that happened thousands of years ago in Mount Wuyi City, Fujian Province, China. We call it the coffin hanging in the air. Workers hang on the cliff, dig holes, and put pipes in. Historians still wonder how they did it
@@weiye8830 Isn't it? Ok, even 2418m, it is still a hardcore..... but then there probably is a route that a bus could take you half way and start there, otherwise, I am not sure I would want to try 2418m all the way, or I will take the donkey just like the woman did :)
On the last stop of the video, I think the tall auntie said 10 Yuan for the sweet potato and 15 for the bar of Snickers, not 15 for both, so just to let you guys know that she didn't short-change you when she gave you back 25 out of 50. Enjoyed the video thoroughly. 👍
I was really worrying about your safty with one hand holding the camera and climib the narrow and steep path with rocks. Be safe. Thank you for sharing.
Tiger Leaping Gorge is absolutely unbelievable. The natural beauty of this region of China is so stunning… we hope you enjoy the 3 part video series on our hike ❤

幾年前去過這裡，很漂亮的一個徒步路線，前面一直上坡比較辛苦，中間和後段的地方比較平坦好走，最壯觀的景色也在後面，數千公尺的懸崖就在河流對面，沿途住宿的地方都在景觀最好的位置，有趣的是這條徒步路線的外國人很多，路上有的小販都能說一些簡單的英文，而且旅館能提供多元化的食物，中國菜或西式披薩、三明治、漢堡或啤酒……

@@CDTsuiPo 並不是，虎跳峽風景區，和虎跳峽高路徒步路線開始分岔的地方是一個小學校，售票口在那之前，徒步路線原本就是通往山上兩個村落的小徑，但有人發現這條小徑因為位置比較高看對面的風景更佳，後來才成為一個徒步路線，而且一開始就是外國徒步客比較多，中國人走這路的反而少，近幾年我不清楚，可能也多起來，但至少在7～8年前是這樣

虎跳峡， I just heard this place from our text book and you two guys are there!

Another great video from Naomi and Luke. Best of luck from Malaysia!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you! 😃
two mad explorers, two lovely explorers, two friends. Welcome to HuNan provice, one neighbor of YunNan province.
Thanks!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@TwoMadExplorers I’m Chinese American. Love your Channel. Love your open mindedness and honesty. Love Germany. I’ve been there many times for work purposes. German engineering is the best in the world, as well as your dogs, lol.
Enjoy your trip and safe travels everywhere! ❤
Great spectacular views. Did you notice the electrical lines overhead? Access to electricity and the internet everywhere, amazing. Cheers from Edmonton Alberta Canada.
Hi Naomi and Luke, China is so big that there are so many beautiful sights. If you want to climb mountains, you can go to Huangshan in Anhui, Huashan in Xi'an, and Siguniang Mountain in Sichuan; if you want to see water, you can go to Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan. The western Sichuan Plateau and Tibet are both worth visiting. But don't go to those tourist cities because they are too commercialized.
I also came to Tiger Leaping Gorge October last year. When you guys mentioned about phone signal and internet access in Europe, I rmb I couldn't even pay with credit cards in some of the Christmas markets in the city centre of Germany because the vendors told me they couldn't connect their credit card machine with internet😅 It was in 2022.
😂😂😂
You can't blame Germany for this, as Huawei's 5G is being forced to be boycotted by the US, resulting in them having to use worse and more expensive equipment
You are really great. China is really too big. It may be impossible for Chinese people to enjoy all the beautiful scenery of China in their lifetime, but you two can enjoy the beautiful scenery of China in a limited time.😊😊
Hi Luke and Naomi! You guys are so cute, love you guys! As you will be in China for several months, I suggest you to give Northern China a shot, I'm from DALIAN, A romantic seaside city that combines Western style and Chinese modernity！Pretty sure you will love it!

I'm glad to see you start exploring the natural scenery of China. Looking forward to more videos from you about traveling in China
that's what you call an adventure! not many foreigners will be able to do it because it takes a few extra steps to get everything set up but you guys are pros now and know how to tap into local help 😅. probably won't be forgetting that hike in a long time lol. congrats for conquering the mountain! I was getting a little worried for you guys at the start 🤣
also that lady selling sweet potatoes was just using a personal account so that's why you can't pay with a foreign credit card. you need a business account to be able to accept foreign credit cards. there are ways around this, by setting up a 'virtual' chinese bank account but it's just easier to carry some cash around.
Learned something new today. Thank you!
If you have enough time for your visa, I suggest you go to Xinjiang and Xizang(Tibet) this season, where there are more beautiful scenery.

Don’t know why I so touched when you pay the old granny in cash as you thought she may not very good at use e-pay . Thank you for letting me know again some familiar place ,I really regain something on traveling
In fact, they know very well about electronic payments.
You are very welcome to China. I really like watching your videos. Thank you for bringing different comments.❤❤As a Chinese, I'm very happy that you can come to my hometown.🎉🎉I hope you have a good time.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Two great adventurers. Salute.
I hiked the Gorge in 2005 and 2007, and there was no big bridge in the background then. It was remote, peaceful, and an amazing place! The high trail is the way to go! Hiked over from Lijiang and ended at Sean's Guest House.
Thanks for sharing your journey exploring the Tiger Leaping Gorge. It is amazing both of you explored the Gorge. More than 15 years ago, I visited Kunming, Dali, Lijiang, and Shangri-La, but on group tour, the guide point to us where the Gorge is, up on the road on our way to Shangri-La. Love your videos. Keep it up!

You two are really mad explorers.
Nicely done, keep going! Tomorrow, when you arrive middle tiger leaping gorge, don’t forget to sit down on the stone beside the bank of the river and take off your shoes and socks. Then, seeing the water, listening the waves, thinking that why the river is so yellow. If you understand the reason, please tell us. Have fun 😅
You two are such an agreeable twosomes that watching your videos gives a sort of energizing effect that makes life worth living.
❤️🫶🏼
The Tiger Leaping Gorge is very beautiful, but there are many other natural landscapes like this in China, and even more beautiful elsewhere. China has a land area of 9.6 million square kilometres and a complex and varied landscape, so if you want to get a fuller picture of China's landscapes, bloggers can try exploring the west and north of the country, where the people and the climate are different, and where you will experience very different views!
Wow! What an amazing video clip capturing superb sceneries. You deserve my respect. All the best to both of you. Looking forward to more clips from you. Take care lovely brave couple!🍻
Thank you very much!
wow, what a great video! Can't wait to see the next episode
❤️❤️❤️
I visited tiger-leaping gorge in April, 2024. It was quiet cold and drizzling all the time. I did not have time to hike. The scenary was amazing and it was great experience in Shangri-la.
Tiger Leaping Gorge is the place where I read historical legends
And I've never seen it before.
Thank you for unlocking an achievement for me.
Cute backpack, cute Naomi🥰 Food is truly expensive,understandable though. But those flags with inspiring words, cliff coffee shop and human-made photo shooting spot, I think, are too delicate and less natural. What really touched me was the nature itself and smiles of these lovely people.
another nice and interesting video❤
Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing your hiking experiences. It’s enjoyable.
迄今为止，观看体验最佳的旅游Vlog。Luke和Naomi思维开放，充满谦卑，还时不时的逗笑我一下，继续加油
你俩体力是真好！赞
看你们别视频，感觉你们很真实，看这个视频发现，你们是真性情，不是故意夸的，而是看到了什么说什么，这种山真的是我从小就有的，所以感谢你们的直接，可能这也是很多人说你们是最棒的原因吧，很真实很客观😊😊😊
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I've been following your China vlogs and this is probably the most scenic of all your destinations and I love it.
Been to Tiger Leaping Gorge in year 2008 but only visited the rock where the tiger was said to leap over the gorge, while on our way back after climbing Haba mountain (was an avid trekker then). Your video has shown me what the upper trail is like 👍
Your vast knowledge is truly impressive. I searched the Chinese internet for an explanation of why the water in Tiger Leaping Gorge is yellow, and the speculation I found there matched exactly what you mentioned in the video.No wonder you all are true explorers!🤩
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤From Toronto Canada 🎉🎉
The scenery was spectacular, but the weather was not very good that day. It would be more beautiful if it was sunny. Thank you for sharing the beauty of the journey.
Smart of you to start early in the morning, not so warm. Naomi should have call her family at the Gorge. ''Guess where I am Calling from?' haha
Most lovely couple on the internet 👍👍👍

This might be part of the ancient Tea Horse Trail. Tea originated in this area and in the old days the local people would trade their tea for horses in Tibet. Even now, if you go further north to Diqing (aka Shangri La), you will find Tibetans there and they hold weekend horse races (not for tourists, only among themselves).
Happy travels wherever you roam and thanks for sharing your adventures! 👏👏👏
I think you should exercise regularly. Climbing mountains is not an easy task. I have seen two foreigners climb Huangshan Mountain. They are very confident, and the result can be imagined.
Hi guys....fantastic journey with both of you , looking forward to next footage. As usual, your honest and spontaneous comments make the cover so much more interesting and enjoyable. Take care. Catch you soon.
The south bank of the Tiger Leaping Gorge scenic spot is Yulong Snow Mountain, the main peak is 5596 meters above sea level, and the north bank of Haba Snow Mountain is 5396 meters above sea level. Tightly bound by the mountains on both sides of the river, the width of the river into the gorge is only more than 50 meters, and the narrowest tiger leopard leap over it, so the name Tiger Leaping Gorge. The canyon is 80 kilometers away from Lijiang city, the canyon is in the upper reaches of the Jinsha River, with a total length of 17 kilometers and a roundabout road of 25 kilometers. The vertical height difference of the canyon is more than 3900 meters, which is one of the deepest canyons in the world.Will you go to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain?
好家伙，直接百度百科搬运过来了这是
Looking forward to see you guys actually get close to the river. It will be a spectacular view.
If you like to see the nature wonder in China, Huang-Shan(Yellow Moubtain) is the place you can't miss. Avatar scene was base on that.
Correction: Zhang-Jia-Jie in Hu-Nan province is the right place.

So when will you visit the Honghe Hani rice terraces? I keep asking you about that for a reason: you have not experienced Yunnan until you do, and it will change your mind about agriculture, human ingenuity and civilization is a very positive way. This is my major suggestion for visitors to Yunnan.
Is this the right season to visit the rice terraces? Find out the best season because otherwise it’s better to spend your precious time elsewhere.
You guys really explore deeply into rural areas in China.
Wow! It is in this place that archaeologists study the coffins suspended on the slopes, left by one of the peoples of the region, who were said to know how to fly. I saw an archeologists chinese documentary exploring this region. Ask, the people about the story of the Tiger canyon
你說的不是同一個地方

You can find it in Fujian Province, at Wuyi Shan.
Hello, beautiful lady, you are talking about something that happened thousands of years ago in Mount Wuyi City, Fujian Province, China. We call it the coffin hanging in the air. Workers hang on the cliff, dig holes, and put pipes in. Historians still wonder how they did it
I think it’s a different place.
Luke said many times this is number one so far during his China trip😁😁
Mountains are always beautiful with greenery, fresh air and a great view.👍

The natural beauty of China is truly astonishing.
4000m hike?! You guys are definitely not a regular, fit for the name "Two Mad Explorers"!
The altitude in that area is not that high. The highest point of the hiking route is only about 2600m.

The altitude of Lijiang city is 2418 meters.；
@@baileyshirleen37 sabi
@@weiye8830 Isn't it? Ok, even 2418m, it is still a hardcore..... but then there probably is a route that a bus could take you half way and start there, otherwise, I am not sure I would want to try 2418m all the way, or I will take the donkey just like the woman did :)
Admire the adventurous spirit, the climb is hard, the views are the reward!😊
On the last stop of the video, I think the tall auntie said 10 Yuan for the sweet potato and 15 for the bar of Snickers, not 15 for both, so just to let you guys know that she didn't short-change you when she gave you back 25 out of 50.
Enjoyed the video thoroughly. 👍
❤️❤️❤️
@TwoMadExplorers I suggest you learn some Chinese pronunciation of numbers, it will be very helpful for you.
I really like your channel.
Really going deep into china to learn culture.
Stay safe and take care
I was really worrying about your safty with one hand holding the camera and climib the narrow and steep path with rocks. Be safe. Thank you for sharing.
Wow, what a hike, but the scenery and experience were well rewarded!
You’re so brave!
There's so much culture in the more rural regions of China. Thank you so much for showcasing it!
