🤯China's cultural diversity blew my mind! REAL rural ethnic village in 🇨🇳 southwestern frontier

- Опубликовано: 13 мар 2024
- I moved further south to China's southwestern border, somewhere between Yunnan and Myanmar. It was such a different landscape, some of which I didn't even know until I got there.⚡️ Kids had returned from school for holiday and I got to know their life and interact with them. I love it when I tell stories of other people.

As a Burmese myself, I am amazed by a lot of similarities with Burmese culture and traditions shared by these local people. So great to see this aspect of China. Thank you for making this video.
This is true. I've noticed it as well that the Southwestern region of Yunnan shares the same or identical tradition, culture and motifs to Burmese and numerous other non-Bamar ethnicities in Myanmar. Some ethnic groups found in Myanmar such as Wa, Lahu, Shan and a few others are also recognized as official ethnic minority groups in China.
When the first time I went to Chinese city called Mangsi City 芒市 (မန်စီမြို့) which is a county-level city and the seat of Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture next to Myanmar border, it came to my surprise that so many Tai (Dai) Chinese women wearing Longyi just like women in Myanmar, especially look exactly the samelike Shan ( Dai) women from Shan state.
Later I found out that China and Myanmar share many minority groups of people like Jingpo (ဂျိမ်းဖေါ၊ ကချင် Kachin), Wa, Lahu, Tai (Shan), Lishu etc.,
Burmese and Han's language belong to the Sino-Tibetan language family
Dai people are Tai and not related to Burmese though.
Yes there are a lot of similarities between Chinese and Burmese. I was in Myanmar in 2018 and the first I noticed when I met some people from Shan state, instantly I felt their facial features I thought they looked like Han Chinese people. Burmese in Yangon didn't really look Chinese but I can tell among the borders states there are some similarities
As a retired HK Chinese American, this is a great video to learn about my culture, which has shaped my life. Thanks.
I remember sugar cane from my childhood in Hong Kong. My mother would cut it into 2-inch pieces and split them into four wedges so we could bite into the soft part.
Want to say, Thanks! For your content and thoughts you share.
Marry her dude she's single😂😂
Very interesting video. Yes they seem southeast Asian. China has more diversity than the west. It is accepts it as part of the whole nation. Enjoying the countryside journey. Not what most westerns see. Thank you for the vlog.
Those drone shot is so beautiful. Beautiful well produced video. Really enjoy it.
Glad to hear it!
Beautifully photographed and presented. Gives us an inside view and leaves us with a feeling of heart connection to these people. As we know, nation state is a very recent idea - but the natural spread of history has always been without borders - hence the connection between ethnicities across various regions. I'm fascinated by the spread of Buddhism from India to China and feel that a rare jewel of Asian and world thought was achieved during this time. (Ch'an Buddhism) Perhaps you might want to track this cultural spread at ground level, as I'm sure it would be fascinating and could make an interesting framework for a series!
China is an amazing showcase of ethnic diversity.....
谢谢你带我们领略祖国的风土人情与风光同时，观众还能学到地道英语表达。💗
Never seen such a wonderful Tribal people who have a unique culture and heritage. Being a Buddhist I want to explore this incredible mountainous region. Is it possible to meet with these people? Sending love and hugs to you for your wonderful blogs ❤🤗
The western media are gonna report "illegal child labour" after watching this 😅😅😅😅😅
that's what they very much likely would do.... lol
I saw what you did in Hong Kong
@@hiramhackenbacker9096Hkong was the wealthiest city in the world until those rioters burnt it and scared everyone off. Now those criminals ran away and the place is languishing now. 😢😢
I worked in my grandad's shop in London, at the age of 4 and really enjoyed it.
@Gman979 Hong Kong has been ruined by the authoritarian CCP regime. The "rioters" were students who peacefully protested and were supported by all. The people of HK have literally been beaten into submission.
No wonder Taiwan doesn't want to go down that path. Pro CCP stooges can say what they like but I happened to be there when it all came to a head. I saw it with my own eyes. Terribly sad.
Loving the Yunnan series. Keep it going Siming.
I found this vidéo priceless, perhaps BC you involved so much of your mind, hearth and even body in it HAHA! (the steep mountain trail) Nature has an uncanny way to change beings.
非常接地氣的表達方式，平實生動地呈現當地民族日常的生活內容。觀賞時是一種感官與心靈的享受過程。
Keep up the great videos..love seeing them..
A high quality video! You have showcased the Bulang ethnic minority so beautifully with its culture and lifestyle.
You make great videos.this is the first I've seen exploring a certain area.!?? Excellently done👍🇨🇳😁. I hope you continue to make videos. I'll be waiting ❤❤❤
See the most recent video before this too! Why not see them all?👌
@@zetristan4525 just did, also great video, she's so intelligent, articulate,kind, talented and beautiful with a truly caring heart ❤️👍🇨🇳💪👏😁❤️
Wow ! Siming, You're a wonderful filmmaker, Not just beautiful shots and incredible sequences, but you convey so much warmth and heartful mesagges. Just loved it. Big Huge BRAVO!!!
thank you :)
Just came across this interesting channel today (Sunday 21st July) can't think why I never saw it earlier, as I enjoy Chinese vloggers, having spent a year there in 2023.
Such a well made beautiful video! Really enjoyed watching it, people are so nice and wonderful. And the landscape is amaizing
Our passion fruit are coming in, on our vines in Antigua and Barbuda.....Love em.
And thank you for another fine documentary.....I can't wait to get back to China 🙂
Oooooh wow I've been to one of these Bulang village a few years back ! I actually thought there would be a 客栈 but there were none !
I walked around clearly lost and the chief of the village invited me for dinner and hosted me at his house ! The second day one of his friends sent me back to the city !
Thanks for bringing back memories Siming !
Delightful, fascinating, enchanting. Thank you Siming Lan. ❤☘️
I think this is one of your best videos yet. Thankyou. I enjoyed it greatly.
Your channel it's a treasure, thank you so much!
Hi, Sis. You just got yourself a new subscriber!🥰 I've been aware of your channel since many months ago when I was stumbled on your excellent videos about Xinjiang on my recommendation feed, which I've saved those videos on my Watch Later playlist. But I didn't get to subscribe your channel because I ended up having so many subscriptions to watch for😅
Great footage and very entertaining.
Yunnan was already on my bucket list but thanks to videos like yours it is quickly becoming a bit of an obsession. 😁
Yeah, you should totally come visit Yunnan:)
Exploring China with you must be incredibly fun! I love the fact that your videos touch the less glamorous side of China, and show the local culture. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great works!
The places less travelled. Nicely done again Siming!
thank you :)❤️😊
So interesting learning about Chinese ethnic diversity and seeing how they share similarities with neighbouring countries but part of the Chinese nation. I hope you plan on visiting Tibet and if you do so, please visit the Daman village close to Gyirong Town, they are an ethnically Nepalese community but classified as Tibetan as they share very strong cultural similarities to the Tibetans. I've seen some videos about them but it'll be good to learn more about them, especially in English as the other videos are in Chinese.
I had fun with your video. Thank you for sharing.
Siming 谢谢你！非常温暖的内容，非常好的展示中国的方式，支持:) 想看你多拍这种vlog，还特别想看你拍粤语区的风土人情~
I love how you find the authentic culture and participate in their lives.
😊🙌
Thanks for your beautiful video. I know it takes a lot of work and love to make it. I am looking forward to watching your other videos!
Great video. Thank you for introducing us to diverse China.
Nice video. Love it ❤. Thanks for sharing this part of China with us which most of us have not seen and probably will never visit anytime soon.
The Dai and Bulang culture and way of life looks much like that of the Myanmar people even though they are living in China.
Your video is always fabulous!
Thanks!
I really like your videos! you are so amusing in this video "I'm also here to experience how incapable I am" 😁
hehe ❤️
17:13 So this is your best look by far! Can't beat the texture of natural and happy...
Can`t understand why your channel don`t have 500k+ subs, love your content!
Dai people are exactly the same people as the Thais. Thais actually came from the South Western region of China. Those who went to Thailand becomes Thais, those who stayed were the Dai people.
Though American, I was born in Thailand where my family lived for several years in the 1950s and early 1960s . I could see the similarities in these cultures. What a beautiful and interesting video. Enjoyed it very much. I’m enjoying your videos of China so much!
And your sense of humor is charming!
Aw thank you, I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed those videos!❤️🍵
Hi Siming, please do more videos of Yunnan region! Thanks!
What a nice video again. Thanks.
So nice thanks for sharing :)
I like this report, indeed.
Thanks
Beautiful culture beautifully captured ❤
The scenery of this village is really beautiful
Another excellent video.
great video......live life.
This is beauty of china, multi culture country.
Sehr interessant, sehr schön, vielen Dank 🙂❤❤❤
Wonderful, you're the best!
🥰
You're right, forget the politics. Too many people do that already. You show the real China with real Chinese in a beautiful way!
Another great travel video! Thanks for exploring this part of China and sharing with us. 2 questions out of my curiosity: 1) How did you finance yourself? Is being a successful youtuber enough to sustain this traveling lifestyle? 2) As an English second language speaker, how did you maintain your English level so well when you are in China? I noticed that I lost my spoken English quickly without using it intensitively for a while. Do you actively talk to yourself daily? Thanks in advance.

New subscriber her all the way from Nepal ❤
I had forgotten how much II enjoyed your videos. The make me imagine that I can have the same experience. But of course this is impossible. I’m American living in Japan for more than 25 years. Originally when I was a university student I said I want to live in China, marry, have a family and work for reforming the community where I lived education system. I w very idealistic, I even had a copy of the little Red book.
Never too late, or shouldn't be, right? How has your time in Japan been?
很精彩的视频，在节目中我能学习到很多，尤其是英语的口语表达，谢谢up的精彩介绍
More beautiful in the country side of China. Thank you for the video.
Very good video..
Almost every village in Yunnan grows tea leaves
jUST MESMIRISED AGAIN, Years ago, in 1986, I wanted to come to this region, and document all the different styles of dress and ornamentation that people wear. I also went to a Night school to learn Mandarin, with a Chinese man I lived with in Wellington, NZ. Beautifully put together video, I can just say more, With all the Love............
非常棒，加油
thanks
Siming, your dimples are adorable!
;P
@@SimingLan 妳是属什么的？
Beautiful video! Eating a rodent is not unheard of for me even being born in the States. Here in the South it is not uncommon for people to hunt and eat squirrel, another type of rodent. Ive eaten it...and it tastes good. They also have a very clean diet and lifestyle compared to chickens and hogs.
i am reluctant to comment since the complexity of issues are so entangled and i don't want my curiosity interpreted as criticism, so i will just say that these videos are interesting an well made and i hope you continue to make them.
谢谢你的付出❤
Your beautiful and have a wonderful personality ❤❤❤
湖北小老乡，Great work!
Again, t huh ank you for another real inside look at China. Truly, a more complex and beautiful land than too often portrayed in North American media.
No new videos hmmm. Missed them❤
好看不火
保留当地传统文化和融入现代社会改善生活之间确实有矛盾
You will undoubtedly get very far with this.
“The only thing that will change your life is knowledge” ❤ This quote prompts me to offer you a new book recommendation: ‘Educated’ by Tara Westover.
As you know, I’m big on reading/learning. This one I read it in one sitting 📖🤪🎷
*experience
Goes deeper than knowledge.
@@zetristan4525 You’re quite right! The videos surrounding my life story are testament to that 🎼🎷🎵🎶
@@saxmaniac6321 I hope you practice safe sax🎶🎷
I loved that book too! It was a great read!
@@SimingLan So happy to hear this 🤩 She is incredible! Have you checked out her many interviews on here?
Hi, How to find guest houses in China ?Thanks.
Miss Siming, I am pretty you are supposed to say Southeast Asia instead because Southwest Asia is literally the Indian Ocean itself. Also, you looked good with a cowboy hat!
She is right. She is saying that this place is China's South Western frontier.
It's located in the South Western part of China, not South East Asia.
Cool
I was surprised you quoted Theravaden instead of Mahayana Buddhism
you have such a brilliant mind and clear logic to demonstrate your idea, i guess you are intj，am i right？😊
enfj 🥲 but i do often come across online as an i, dont know why😂
@@SimingLan hahaha，maybe its between i and e😆
山裏的人觉得读书知识进大城市就是出路。在城裏久了的人就觉得到山裏就舒服了没压力。到底什麽才是开心呢？痛苦莫过於觉得自己此时此刻不该在这裏。如果是这样，什麽美丽风景在面前也看不到。
博主，可以将之前的视频弄上中文字幕吗？我的英语不好，但很想看看
I think the world is not as black and white and most people think. It's just lazy generalization and easier to group things but the world is a spectrum of people/habit/cultures especially those in borders of two countries will share a lot of similarities.
Tashi delek nice video sister Thuchese laso
Minorities have to improve themselves. 1st reason, knowledge and technology at least help them know better to themselves, their lands and the plants, then live so called 'better' lives; 2nd, even they do not take the initiative to improve, they will fall out of time and only produce farm products for other people. So why not do it actively, gogogo. Good video, well done Siming :)
Love the vlog. Err, please talk slower... (consider LCE's pace)
太棒了
云南太偏僻了 被群山包围 听说从云南送快递价钱比国外还贵呢😅
云南也不包邮吗？
Awesome woman,very delightfully surprising to see you look good. Love for you.shamim zahuri,bangladesh 💔🌷🕊💑🧜♀️👫
来都来了，去洱海玩玩啊！
完了，BBC的头版马上会出现这样的文章：《中国农民活在生死边缘，不得不吃老鼠生存》
😉
I wish the world would adopt/choose one language ( I don't care which one) to call the HUMAN language ..then we could all learn THAT one as our second language...it would become the only other language we would need to learn.
华人也是泰国的少数民族，也是很多国家的少数民族，也融合的很好，说明世界上多数时间，多数国家都是各民族融合发展，只有一些封闭地形、海岛国家单一民族化。
go to Tibet once please
Siming, do you by any chance speak Cantonese? At 11:03 you said "ba bai" it sounds like Incredible in Cantonese
她应该是在广东省长大，爷爷奶奶生活在湖北省的哪一种。
