  • As we travel further on our trip around China, we arrive in Chengdu, the capital of southwestern China's Sichuan province. Also home to the famous Chengdu Research Base of Giant Pandas. We dive straight into exploring what the city has to offer. We show you what $75 a night will get you at the Ji Hotel in Chengdu Taikoo Li Center and go straight out to try spicy Sichuan food. We start by trying Lamb and beef kebabs and explore the local market for souvenirs. While strolling around Chunxi Road Pedestrian Street, we stumble across China's first Louis Vuitton restaurant, housed in the century-old heritage site of Guangdong Hall. Nearby we try the famous spicy Sichuan ice cream and fresh cold street noodles before heading for a walk along City Park and the Jin River to Chengdu's TV and Radio Tower. Jack gets his first Chinese Street shave and we share a bottle of wine along the river while experiencing the traditional Chengdu ear cleaning. We head back to the city to try China's spiciest dish La Zi Ji (Sichuan Mala Chicken, 辣子鸡)

    So much fun to watch this video, the way how you describe about food, talking to people and your reactions while experiencing new things just so funny (in a good way). Love it. BTW, Chinese people don't usually greet each other with 你好,吃了吗/hello, have you eaten. We just greet with 你好/hello, or just greet with 吃过了吗/吃了吗/have you eaten. Normally at about meal time people will ask 吃过了吗 as a way to greet, if not nearby meal time, chinese don't greet that way either.

      In the past, China was very poor, and it was a luxury for people to have a full meal, so they would use "Have you eaten?" to wish people a good life. But now that people are well-off and having enough food is no longer a problem, this way of greeting has been gradually abandoned.

      ​​​@@JackAynsleyTravel "Chi le ma" means "Eaten (Had breakfast/lunch/dinner) yet?". This phrase has once been the most straightforward salutation to people in ancient difficult times when getting oneself and his/her family well fed was the most important and sometimes challenging goal of life and also a significant symbol of well-being for most people. As the chinese society develops, having three decent meals everyday is no longer a top priority of people's concern. In fact, using this phrase to greet people of a city lifestyle nowadays would probably bring a confusion more and more frequently, especially when it is not close to the meal hours. 😁

    I have already followed you and I really like your videos. They are friendly and approachable. It's the first time I've seen a travel blogger who is so brave in exploring. You have done many things that local Chinese people wouldn't do, such as spicy pepper ice cream, haha.
    However, I noticed that your video views in China have been low. I think RUclips has limited the spread of your content. Whenever the video content involves China, things will turn out like this. Many social media platforms do not want objective content about China to be spread. But it's great to see you as friendly travelers. I hope you have a good time in China and look forward to more content from you
