Yangshuo is one of our most beautiful stops on our China trip! And there's no better way to take in this place then to rent a bicycle and just get lost in the scenery. Which is exactly what we did, quite literally :-D we highly recommend visiting Yangshuo if you are in Guilin China. It's a highlight of the Guilin China tours you can do in this part of the country!
We hope you enjoyed this China travel vlog & cycling Yangshuo China! We can't wait to show you around Vietnam in the next video :) NEXT UP: Hanoi, Vietnam! Care to join us on another adventure?

Thank you for watching our Yangshuo video - it's great to have you here! We enjoyed China a lot and we cannot wait to show you around the next country. We hope you are as excited for Vietnam as we are :) (woopwoop!) if you have any recommendations for places we should definitely visit in Vietnam, please let us know - we'd love to hear your thoughts :)
Yes we know, it's pretty crazy haha 😳 we will show you in the next video 😉 we'll definitely go back to China some time!
@line where oh cool! Where did you guys meet then, in China or Vietnam? 😊
@Naick & Kim your videos are awesome to watch and funny too. Do you use Drone to take these videos?
你们视频在中国网站上已经很火了,欢迎你们来中国的RUclips,网站www.bilibili.com 很多中国人喜欢你们。
Visit Myanmar villages . ancient natural beauty and it's special.
To all our Chinese subscribers, thank you for watching our China series and for all your comments! We really love that you're following along and can't wait to show you your neighbouring country of VIETNAAAAM :)
we love you guys :) thank you so much for being here!!
Kim Dirix Is this Kim’s personal account?😅
你们要去越南了吗?然后去印度?
I am excited about seeing our neighborhood country. Can't wait!
Well.. Im not chinese, i really want to see the beauty of China. Thank u for uploading videos about China
I am studying overseas. My friends want to visit china next year, but I don’t have time to explain all the things to them... all the places you've been to are on their wishlists ,hahahaha, even some places I haven’t been to.. we're planning to go to china after we graduate from the university , they want me who speaks mandarin to be the guider and make the travel plan.. The best option is sharing your videos to them.. thanks for these beautiful videos to show an amazing china ! Can’t wait to go for the trip with my friends!
Hi Yiting Zhao 😊👋🏻 so cool that our videos are useful to you to plan your own trip! How long will you be travelling in China after the graduation? I am sure you will have a blast 😏
@@NaickKim I generally fine with the time, but it depends on one of my friend, she will travel from Australia to Columbia, then Myanmar, Vietnam, finally China ... in two months. I thought she is crazy.. but I respect .. maybe we will spend 2 wks or more, for her and other friends who only travel to China. I just recommended some most important cites to her, she said she loves rural and natural areas, no big cities, hahahaha..
These China videos will be my travel bible, which I shall consult before my trips to the south. You guys have been to more places in China than I have, and I have lived in the country for 16 years...
Thank you Kevin! 😊🙏🏻 we still have so much more to see in China, but that will be for next time 😉 what would be your first stop if you could travel anywhere in your country today? 😊
@@NaickKim I'm thinking the province of Yunnan, towns like Dali, Shangri-la and Lijiang are definitely on top of the list. I've seen so many pictures of them, and they seem like the places that are perfect for like a 2 week trip.
You guys are always welcome in China.Thanks for sharing this video so much.
You are very welcome, thank YOU for watching 😉 we definitely felt very welcome in China and will go back for sure!
I experienced a stampede before in China at Jiuzhaigou ( a really super beautiful national park in Sichuan, you should go there in autumn). When the eco-coach pulled up at the bus bay, all the local tourists lunged forward as if it's their last day on earth before hell closes! So ya, could mean that when there's a crowd.
The rushing and pushing when a bus or vehicle arrives has happened to us as well. Pretty crazy haha 😀
Lovely couple. You guys are hilarious!! Whenever you guys talk, I cannot stop holding my smiling. Enjoy the trip!!
Thanks so much 🤗🙏🏻 that means a lot to us! 😘
Thanks for this amazing tour of Yangshuo. I'll put it on my list of places to visit! Looking forward to your time in Vietnam! Yay!
Glad you enjoyed it. Yangshuo was really incredible. We're in Hanoi now, which is a cool city!
Amazing... , especially the cinematic drone shots of moon mountain/Moon hole (am I right?). I do enjoy your vlog. and every time when it comes to foodie, Kim you always looks so cute :P
love it
Hihi thank you Lemon Rose 🍋🌹😉 that is so nice to read 🤗 have a great day!
Beautiful sceneries, great accommodations, relaxing atmosphere and another entertaining video. China vlogs have been stellar. On to next country!
Wow thank you so much 🤗🙏🏻 can't wait to show you around Vietnam, it's so different from China already! First video should be up tomorroooow 😍
I like to watch Yangshuo Tour, passing scenic Lijiang river. all hills are so amazingi n our sight.I long for Guilin and Yangshuo! thank for bringing back my long lost memory.I hope some more else will appear in your video.Thank you good guys!
You are very welcome, thank YOU for watching 😊
As a Chinese saying goes'Guilin scenery is the best in China,Yangshuo scenery is the best in Guilin'
Have a nice trip!
It is so stunning 😭❤️ thank you for watching!
Being following all your episodes on China. Love them. Stay safe and all the best.
Thanks so much 😘🤗
love you guys' sense of humour
Glad you like it 😉🤗 thank you for watching!
Naick & Kim, keep up the good work, will keep on watching your videos!!!
I'm so enjoying these videos and laughing out loud. You both are a riot. I don't know many traveling couples on RUclips who are also a comedy team. Thanks for the Travel Videos and the laughs!
Glad you like them!
Glad you enjoyed your trip in China, have fun on your journey of SEA.
Thank you! We will 😊👍🏻
Been to that guesthouse. Love it so much! ❤️
Us too 😭❤️
I wish you a pleasant journey in Vietnam and best wishes from China
Thank you Gary! 😊🙏🏻
Like a wonderland. I must have a look this year.
You should definitely visit there!
Welcome to come to China next time, you must come to Xiamen(厦门). It is also a beautiful city. Thank you
Thank you for the tip! And for watching 😘🤗
I've been binge watching your old vids, just kinda caught up..love your equal, easy manner, style of presenting & very positive outlook..(& you don't get too political about things.). I'm so jealous of those place you're visiting.. stay safe & good luck.
Ah so cool! Did you start with the ones from Mexico or afterwards? :) thanks so much for watching (we know binge watching can take a lot of time, we were pros at it ;D) and for your lovely feedback!
Your China series is really good. I enjoyed watching them.
Thank you so much! That's great to hear 🤗🙏🏻 see you in Vietnam🇻🇳 😉
I have been watching your vlogs and really love them. Can't wait to show us your next trip in Vietnam.
Thank you so much! 🤗 we're so excited about Vietnam 😍
@@NaickKim Haha.... I was wondering if it is available for you guys to give some brife synopsis for your following episodes. I believe it'll be really helpful for those who loves watching your videos but with poor listening....
Really loved your video and hope you enjoyed the trip in China 😉 It’s a huge country and there are still a lot of awesome places to discover. Let us know the next time you travel and we are happy to give you some local recommendations 😁
Thank you Peter! We will definitely will. We will be back in China!
WOW! Straight out of a fairy tale!
Yes it is! The landscape is truly incredible there.
Bravo, thanks for this great video and now I found another great bicycling line!😁
ALSO...check the map, YangShuo is faaaar from the border of Vitamin and Laos... YangShuo is in the northwest part of GuangXi province, if you track down Straight to south, it’s the ocean!😂
yeah, but it's still in the south of China... Somewhere ;)
We have an old saying: 桂林山水甲天下, meaning: the best scenary in China is in Guilin.
The scenery is indeed incredible, Have you been there?
@@NaickKim Yes, me and my wife had a water battle with other tourists, with bamboo water guns. We don't know from which country they come from, but here we had a blast on the Li river, together.
Welcome again,China is so big, you can come to my city of HangZhou , love your.
We would love to visit Hangzhou next time! It looks like such a beautiful city.
I was in china last year following a tour so i didnt have the chance to really explore china ....damn, i wish i had the guts to do a wild trip like you both, this is ssssooooooo much fun!! Enjoy life while still can!!!!! God willing, next year i would make a trip again to china.
Which route did you do last year? It's very easy to travel by yourself! Fingers crossed you can go next year 😊🤞🏻
@@NaickKim i was in beijing,shenzhen ughhh its so hard to remember the names....i was following a tour
its the most beautiful place i have ever been!
It is really wonderful. The landscapes are incredible. We also really loved Zhangjiajie. Have you been there?
Those drone shots were epic! Great stuff :)
Thanks Adam!
Always nice to watch your videos. Enjoy your trip in Vietnam!
Thank you! Super excited to get back to South East Asia 😍😊
I need to bring my family to Yangsuo too. it is so beautiful place for summer.
It's one of our favourite spots in China 🤗
Since I cannot see the Chinese sign ,I guess the 'no stampede' sign means you cannot step on or cross the fence. In those rural area people are not good at English, so they will Baidu(Chinese version of Google) it ,translate it and print it out. The translator may misunderstand what they really want to say,that could be the most reasonable explain.
yes that sounds very likely! thank you ;)
Not sure if 云南Yunnan was on your list, since it is not far from Guangxi, the province you are in right now. As a Yunnan-born-shenzhener, I really recommend my hometown. It has the most diverse natural ecology and ethnic customs in China (Yunnan alone accounts for 26 of China’s 56 ethnic groups). 大理Dali, 丽江Lijiang, 香格里拉Shangri-la, 西双版纳Xishuangbanna are the most well known tourist spots.
Yunnan looks really amazing and it is on the top of our list for our next visit. We didn't have enough time to do it this time. But we will definetely be coming back to China.
Naick & Kim I saw your comment after releasing mine that your next stop will be Vietnam 🙂😃 please enjoy the rest of your time in China and look forward to your next visit back to China.🍺💕
Scenic! Wonderful travel in Chinese country-site! Thanks lovely couple!
You're very welcome Jim! Thank you for watching 🤗🙏🏻
welcome to Guangxi, my hometown. have a good trip. 广西欢迎您。
Thank you!
it's very nice to see you again.very beautiful nature sight.
thank you! it's great to have you here! and yes, Yangshuo was unbelievable beautiful
welcome to China again.
Thank you!😏😊🙏🏼
Yangshuo,wonderful place
yes, really an unbelievable place :)
@@NaickKim you guys are also wonderful people
very nice! seemed like a really fun day out
I suggest you watch the show "impression of Liu Sanjie" tonight. It's directed by Zhang Yimou.
You mean it's a show in Yangshuo? We are already in Vietnam so thay will be for next time 😉
Renting a bicycle only costs 10RMB (1.4dollor) a day in Yangshuo...but renting an electric bike is more efficient and only costs 40RMB
We almost took an electric bike but figured we might as well get some exercise haha 😉 to work off all that delicious Chinese food,
@@NaickKim So glad that you have had a good time in Yangshuo``Welcome visit again next time
hope you will go to Changbai Mountain and Dali.
Didn't get a chance to this time, maybe for our next trip to China 😊 thank you for watching and for the suggestion!
Thank you for sharing your VDOs.You've done a very exciting trip in China. We've been to Beijing already and the hotel had no internet while they put in Agoda website they have. And the sim card with Chinese number cost about $30, we've got no translator apps. So if we decide to book hotel as we go along places in China I think it's very hard. Just wonder if you guys book hotels in advanced or you look for hotels as you go ( otherwise it's hard to make plan, isn't it ? ). Appreciate your answer guys . We plan to go 1 month on the next trip but find it's hard to make plan.
We book as we go. It gives us some flexibility to stay longer in places where we like it. It's very easy with a local sim card. We both bought a sim with a Chinese number, it was 13 or 14 usd per card including 20 GB of data. So nowhere near 30 usd actually. Then you just install a good vpn (we like surfshark) before you enter the country and voila, you can use every website you could possibly want while you're in the country 😊 if you have any more questions let us know
@@NaickKim Thank you for your kind reply. Enjoy your trip in Vietnam. While you're in Hanoi don't miss day trip to Ninh Binh ,it's just like Halong Bay on land .
Keep posting 💯
Thanks a lot!
Hey Naick & kim ...... Please came to visit Nepal as well.🙂🙃 Its very beautiful and as knows 8th wonder in the world. Nepal is a place that "budha" was born..... another thing is world highest " Everest mountain" position here. You won't be disappoint if you come here... 🙏
Hi 👋🏻 thank you for the tip, we would love to visit Nepal at some point so it's definitely on the list 😉😏
Thats real bamboo, its a whole industry in China I think
Thanks Wilmer 😊🙏🏻
有电动车可以租的哦!骑电动车观赏风景最好。
Really enjoyed this destination👌 which never was on my radar so Thank you! Just finshed China 🇨🇳 serie and it was Epic!
Bisou Sabrina
You guys just went to near my tai chi academy , Welcome!
Oh really? That's so cool. Tai Chi always looks so interesting.
Yangshuo is my nometown~she is a fairyland that is only in fairy tales。。
Yes so incredible 😍
Welcome to visit China again. China has a large territory and there are more places for you to explore.
Thanks Mei Chan! Where would you recommend going?
welcome to CHINA!If you can,take a trip to ordos of innermongolia.
We just visited Mongolia (the country) before entering China so skipped inner mongolia for now. For a next trip 😉
@@NaickKim ACTUALLY,ITS TOO COLD THERE NOW,YOU D BETTER GO IN SUMMER OR AUTUMN😝.
It is a small BUT cosy city, while you may find authentic customs of local minorities especially mongolia nationality as well as places of interests possessing 5 A there
Nanning is my home.Welcome!(^^)/ And you could by international train to Vietnam in Nanning
We took a very comfy bus from Nanning to Hanoi in Vietnam. Loved it 😊🚌
my hometown is another city in Guangxi province,called Liuzhou,it is about 150km from Yangshuo ,I went to Yangshuo and Guilin many times.Your next stop Nanning is the capital city of Guangxi province.My ancestors were Vietnamese immigrants.And now I work and live in Shanghai.Wish you guys have a nice trip in CHINA and VIETNAM !!!
thank you so much! you like living in Shanghai? We really loved the city when we visited
@@NaickKim of course!!I love shanghai so much, it is a magical Metropolis!
The scenery is dinosaur period alike which is cool, imaging dinosaur eating each others'body in this environment. haha
Haha did not think of that! It looks pretty wild 😊
欢迎来到中国,有机会来云南,西双版纳,这里非常的美丽!
How do you manage for the visa while in china for so long? I was in china for 10 days which was a short time to travel uuugghhhh
We requested our visa while we were in Ulan Bator, Mongolia. There you can get up to 60 days as a Belgian (30 if we'd request it at home). We asked for 55 and somehow got 57 🤔😜
@@NaickKim You mean to say how many days visa you are given depends on where you obtain your visa? So it's better to obtain a visa outside of your country since it's longer?
@@NaickKim wow such a loooong days ....is it for free or you have to pay for the days?
so marvelous landscape
It is incredible. Have you been there?
@@NaickKim Yes, it's a pure paradise in China
See you guys in vietnam!
Thank you!
You deserve more subscribers
Haha thank you 😉🙏🏼 slowly but surely 😏
Incredible
Isn't it?!
I wish you happiness in China! 祝你们在中国开心快乐!
Thank you!
5’40”, those plants are bamboo, not palm trees!:)
Really?! They really looked like palm trees 😳🌴
This looks like a LOT of fun. How "safe" are you riding there, though? After the second time I was hit by a car where I live I was convinced to give up commuting to work, and just wondering if cyclists are treated better there?
It wasn't super safe tbh haha. But I guess the locals are used to those crazy tourists on bikes!
中国欢迎你,祝你们玩的愉快!
感谢您的客气话
just curious how long your total trip is going to be and how much time you took planning all this?
The initial plan was for our total trip to be around 1 year, but we'll see in a few months 😉 the only plan we had before leaving is that we would start in Mexico, travel down through Latin America and then move on to Asia. We didn't plan a route or book anything in advance. We just bought a 1 way ticket to Cancun, booked a hostel for the first few nights and took it from there. That way we had freedom to change our route along the way because there was no fixed itinerary 😊 the only thing that did take planning was saving up enough money 💸 before leaving, but other than that there was no plan 😉
Welcome to China.Enjoy your travel.Support your channel forever.Welcome to Luoyang.my hometown.If u come.pm if u like
Thank you!
I like to see you two get married .kim has a lovely accent .If you gonna be handicapped by any one why not Kim.lgot some body just like her who support in my photography.in England.
That's great to hear Raj! For now we're spending all our money on travel haha.
:)
💖
哈哈 好呀
谢谢
like your vlog,just wonder that you are rich traveling
Hahaha no unfortunately not 😭 we saved up for a few years before we left and keep costs down now by going for budget options whenever we can 😊 if we were rich, we would probably spend much more on accommodation, etc. 😉
啊!听不懂英语的我,看你的视频2个小时了
哈哈哈,我也差不多
hey can I know the name of the place yourl stayed
It's called Sudderstreet. Really recommend it.
Your hostel looks really nice, what's the name, I would like to book it also, Thanks!
it was Sudder Street Guesthouse. Great great hostel, definitely recommend going there!
@@NaickKim Thanks!
Hey, Kim, which phone are you using now?
Huawei P20 (pro, I think). Why? :)
@@NaickKim I see, It looks familiar. You are really good at filming, love your vedios. I will keep following.
Thank you so much, that is nice to hear 😊🤗 we don't film with our phone though, we film with a DSLR camera. Canon 80D, we really like it 😏
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
thank you!!
Get married at Nixon trail
Can you get married there?
Did you guys experience anything really annoyed you such as policemen harassing, feeling unsafe because you are foreigners, afraid of no freedom?
No, not at all. People have been exceptionally friendly. In Nanning we were looking for a shop to print our Vietnamese visa and asked a couple of people who pointed us to a shop. It was closed,so we asked someone else. That guy went with us for a 15 min search for a print shop. He had to ask around a couple of timed but made sure we found one. Super sweet. If we couldn't find something and we asked police, they were always helpful. We didn't feel limited in our freedom. The only negative experience we had in 6 weeks was a taxi driver who was using a fraudulent meter in Shanghai. We just paid the normal price and walked off.
你们在中国旅游安全吗?
非常安全!它是我们去过的最安全的国家之一。
@@NaickKim 我的朋友明年要带孩子去中国旅游,正好是你们去过的那些城市,所以帮她门问一下。谢谢,答复。
欢迎你来到中国。
谢谢
I watched a lot of your videos and I noticed you two constantly refer to the locals as "Chinese people" rather than just "people". I'll bet that when you're moving about Western countries you don't do that when referring to their respective locals. A vestige of the Western Orientalist, dehumanizing belief that Asians are somehow always the unrelatable "other" perhaps? Aside from that, nice videos.
I get why you may find it odd but it's not at all coming from a bad, let alone 'dehumanizing', place 😳🙄 the reason it strikes us as different is bc there are hardly any Western tourists like in the rest of Asia (eg Vietnam where we are now) but looooads of Chinese domestic tourists. Which is just something we're not used to and find interesting 🤷🏻♀️
daocheng yading is more beutiful
I haven't heard about this yet. Where is it?
@@NaickKim daocheng yading in sichuan it is most popular feature spot 。you can google it 。almost beutiful feature sopt in Sichuan or Xinjiang or Tibet。if you want to travel china again i can tell more feature spot where is popular。
6:55, Always struggle, Never forget why you started, CCP's slogan, Haha...be careful of your account maybe blocked by youtube.
what do you mean?
It is a kind joke,just skip and enjoy your trip😏
You just think too much.It is suggested that you look at the world with an open mind and go out too see more often. The world is bigger than you think.
@@NaickKim Only kidding, No malicious, lol, Like your vlog.
@@dstanley8995 My 3 accounts were ever blocked by FB, I know how big the world is.
