My wife was born in Taiyuan! We were married in Taiyuan 2016.....so yes I have heard of it.....ha ha....thanks for the trip down memory lane....they also cook spicy food similar to Chongqing
These buildings should be built without using a single nail. The craft of cutting wood in thousands of pieces that seamlessly fit together was spreader to Japan and other parts of Asia
@Molly Wop Chainsaw Sour grape loser, they are enjoying their life while you're still in that corrupted fake democrazy west and living crumbling structures!!
@Molly Wop Chainsaw USA weaponry are outdated now, because of Snowden this biggest thief can't steal from anyone anymore even from its close allies. Just look at USA's HGV program which had failed miserably, but the government won't tell its soldiers because American soldiers think they superior but in fact not anymore!!
@Molly Wop Chainsaw Wake up dumba$$ majority of your budget went into the pockets of the elites. That's why they always ask for more and threaten if they don't get it China will surpass the US. But in fact China had already surpassed the US, that's why US will do anything now to contain China's rise including making fake news about Xinjiang. Now today report came out the terrorist group in Xinjiang is associating with Australia and the 5Eye.... you don't need me to tell you.... C I A is in the middle of it!!
The reason why so much ancient Chinese architecture has survived in Shanxi is because the province has a very dry climate, which helps to preserve the wood of the temples and statues.
It was the last province the communists took over after KMT beat the Japanese army. Local people didn't want to destroy ALL of their cultural heritage during the cultural revolution, like in other parts of China.
No, it was one of the bases for CCP during anti Japan occupation due to its mountainous landscape. Many famous battles and heroes and heroines were from this province in the WWII.
It is also because the Chinese use Tung oil to preserve their wood. China is the only producer of Tung oil and the west recently discovered it. The beauty of Tung oil is that it is natural and non-toxic. Chinese use it on their wooden chopping block.
@@EsaiasP Wait… what? Shanxi was liberated in 1949; the cultural revolution was happened during 1966-1976. And for your information, the Japanese invasion was beaten by KMT + CPC. Don't try to make up new history.
Another reason that shanxi was rich in the past (so there were a lot of buildings) and relatively poor in modern time (so less likely to build new things on the sites where old buildings are standing)

A Chinese living in a island in Pacific here🙋♂️. My hometown is Pingyao, only half an hour high speed train from Taiyuan. It’s an ancient town and a world heritage site. It’s must-visit place of Shanxi Province.
Chinese people including me as a Chinese descendant are very proud of their long-time history. That is why they have spent so much effort and fund to renovate, restore and conserve such ancient buildings.

Thank you! Really appreciate you guys! I used to be fascinated by ancient China as a kid. I should rediscover it as my heritage again. I am very happy for the Mainland. She has done it! Standing up all by herself. Thank you to President Xiu and the Chinese spirit. Best wishes to everyone!
Thank you to showing us the different side of China.The thousand years of building look so elegant. It's like looking back to the history of China.A very worthwhile video to watch.Keep going. Thumb up!
Welcome to Taiyuan And thanks for sharing the vedio of the capital city of my hometown, Shanxi Province Shanxi is famous for its history ，coal , noodles …You guys should really pay a visit to Pingyao and Da Tong Greeting from Australia
Absolutely stunning! Just wouldn't imagine about 20 years ago when I visited Taiyuan that it could be changed to a so fabulous 5-star city in China today.
Thanks for the video Lee and Oli. ShanXi is the home to the ancient Jin state back to the east zhou dynasty(the Spring and Autumn period). They exist almost the same time as the ancient Greece. During this period China was divide into several small and large states. Jin is one of the super power at that time. I highly recommand to have a visit to the acient capital of other big states like, qi(shandong), qin(shaanxi), chu(hubei) You can learn from the history and stories on what cause a state to fall and thrive.
At last a vid on other parts of china and its history ,yes unbelievable how the old part was built with no modern machinery and just man power,and with the decor with all its fine detail,more vids like this please 👍
My hometown! I left Taiyuan 20 years ago. The city has evolved so much and there have been so many projects built for the city. It’s so impressive now. Also we’ve got the most ancient buildings in China. Hope more people will visit Shanxi to experience China’s heritage.
I am from Shanxi Province. Very happy to see that my hometown has so much changed and is becoming better and better! Thank you Barrett for sharing the video!
Good job guys. Keep going on your discovery of China. The restoration of ancient buildings and even 300 years old church . This is a good indication of peace and harmony to show and tell the western world. BIG THANK YOU GUYS.

Welcome to Taiyuan Barrett! My mom is from Taiyuan and I lived there since 2012! Back then Taiyuan was still a dirty and polluted industrial city, now it has completely changed especially in the last five years and it’s becoming more and more beautiful! Shanxi is home to 5000 years of history and you can eat many different types of noodles! And we also have Shanxi mature vinegar! Can’t wait to go back to my second hometown after the pandemic! We warmly welcome you to Taiyuan, Shanxi Province and hope you will have a fantastic time!
I’m from Taiyuan and I’m stuck here at Melbourne too haha. It’s been a long time since I was back in Taiyuan, I really miss it. Great to see it here in your video.
I love this father and son team. These are two appreciative people who are showing the world the best of China past, present and future. My respect goes to them both.
ShanXi is like, if you randomly dig a hole somewhere, you'd most likely find some ancient artefact (well the same could be said with all their other ancient cities) 😂 it has such rich history its amazing. Hey not sure if you guys like museums much, but it would be interesting if you guys could how us the Sanxingdui Museum in Sichuan Province one day :D
it's not accurate. There are many underground relics in Shaan Xi province. the popularity of Shan Xi province is more depend on terrestrial cultural relics. Shaanxi province is next to Shanxi province，but it's different. 😁
OMG I’m from Taiyuan and it’s really surprising to see my hometown from a youtube video! It’s not so famous but really worth visiting! Welcome to Taiyuan and hope you can enjoy your time there! (Numerous kinds of noodles there are quite impressive and they’re all definitely worth trying
The chef making hand pulled noodles at the end was really impressive. Western media would have claimed those thinly pulled noodles was made from a pasta machine! 😜
I love the drone shoots! thi sis why I love this channel so much we can see from above the places you guys visiting! also how much history and culture we could learn in just 15 minutes
Been Australia Brisbane for more than 10 years never expected gonna seen my home town in RUclips. Taiyuan is absolutely beautiful city with long history. Thanks Barrett! Really remind me my lovely time spend in my childhood In Taiyuan.
Really envy you guys. I love travelling in China, love seeing and learning about its history. Miss going to China, just hope that we can visit China again after COVID!
Wow, my hometown, last time I went back was 2008. Never seen any RUclips videos about my hometown before this. Thank you very much. Hope I can bring my daughter and my husband back to visit next year if the pandemic comes to an end.
We had never heard of Taiyuan before we went there but we were pretty impressed with what we saw.. hope you are enjoying the Barrett vids ✌️

老乡你好🤝
老乡你好🤝，我太谷的
19年我有一个机会去平遥，可惜没去成，现在后悔莫及。
政府花钱建造这些公园供人民休闲娱乐，看着是根本收不回来的成本，因为根本就不收费，怎么能收回成本，但这就是中国伟大之处，虽然看着好像收不回成本，其实它比收回成本更有价值，一个地区的百姓，生活在如此的环境里，人民会安居乐业，衣食无忧，自然会认为共产党为人民做的很好，当然会拥护国家政府，那换来的就是国家的和平稳定，一个和平安定的国家，同时再齐心合力建设国家，你们想想发展能不快吗。这就是5000年文化历史下的国家底蕴，我估计老外是不会明白的，即使你明白，也不一定能学会，因为你们是以资本利益为基础的国家，看到的只是眼前的利益，根本看不到未来。
你们好！我关注你们的频道有一年多了，非常喜欢你们的内容制作，父子档很有爱！我出生在山西太原，在家乡生活成长到18岁后出国留学和工作。很高兴你们能向全世界介绍和宣传我的家乡太原。作为youtuber的你们可能在太原停留不了很久，但还是希望你们有机会多来几次，体会地道山西美食和人文历史。山西省境内推荐你们去参观平遥古城，乔家大院，皇城相府，太行山，悬空寺，云冈石窟这些充满历史文化和人文气息的地方，希望你们能把这些地方介绍给全世界！
西方殖民主義者一直把中國當作一塊肥豬肉，這些老外紛紛走來中國想分一杯羹！對他們必须要極度提高警惕！

Thank you for such a nice videos. Keep us entertaining. Kudos to Oli and Lee!
I really enjoyed your trip video and I am very proud of being a Chinese. Thank you very much!!!
support barrett👍
Appreciate it!
I love this father and son team. These are two appreciative people who are showing the world the best of China past, present and future. My respect goes to them both.
ShanXi is like, if you randomly dig a hole somewhere, you'd most likely find some ancient artefact (well the same could be said with all their other ancient cities) 😂 it has such rich history its amazing. Hey not sure if you guys like museums much, but it would be interesting if you guys could how us the Sanxingdui Museum in Sichuan Province one day :D
it's not accurate. There are many underground relics in Shaan Xi province. the popularity of Shan Xi province is more depend on terrestrial cultural relics. Shaanxi province is next to Shanxi province，but it's different. 😁
很精彩感谢分享，山西太原已在旅游计划了
Luckily to see duo Barrett again，thanks Lee and Oli very much
OMG I’m from Taiyuan and it’s really surprising to see my hometown from a youtube video! It’s not so famous but really worth visiting! Welcome to Taiyuan and hope you can enjoy your time there! (Numerous kinds of noodles there are quite impressive and they’re all definitely worth trying
The chef making hand pulled noodles at the end was really impressive. Western media would have claimed those thinly pulled noodles was made from a pasta machine! 😜
They would claim that the chef are forced to pull noodles and people are forced to eat noodles every day lol
haha ~ the making of noodle is a part of a show. Using of machine is less attractive
western media: forced labour doing hand pulled noodles... can't afford machines
