Ich war ebenfalls in China (Xinjiang und Peking). Du wirst es lieben. Deutschland wirkt für mich jetzt wie ein depressives, von Angst, Desinformationen und Hass getriebenes Land, das im Mittelalter stecken geblieben ist. Und die Positivität die man überall in China spürt und lebt, wünsche ich mir sooo so sehr für unser Land. Genieß deine Zeit in China!

Nice. I have taken trains in China including this particular route a few years back. Chinese HS trains are the best in the world hands down and it's absolutely mind-boggling how it was even possible to build the whole thing and scale it to the size of the country that China is.
Experiencing is believing. I was on the train travelling at average 304km/h for 2 hours. The ride was smooth, quiet and comfortable. Happy to ride the high speed train 👍👍👍

Oh interesting, never thought a travel vlogger had car sick😂. I also get a bit dizzy for train or plane trips over 2 hours, sweet drinks help me feel better.
Anyone at this age have the same stranger feeling of dizziness after you read something it may something to do with your eyesight check with your family doctor or take exam eye exam.
Oh wow, what an amazing experience taking that high- speed train from Guangzhou to Beijing. Yeah, that train station in Guangzhou is indeed very modern, massive and clean. Great that you have prepared yourself with a bigger luggage, a very nice one, Ken. Thanks for sharing that interesting train ride/journey. Proud to see how advanced and incredible most parts of China are connected by these high-speed trains. Thanks a bunch for sharing this informative and knowledgeable content...a cool video indeed. Great job, Ken. Happy exploring Beijing. Looking forward to your next video.
Correction to my comment above :- Proud to see how advanced and developed China is and it's really incredible that most parts of China are connected .............*****
Not a strict comparison, but 2298 km in 7h37min from Guangzhou South to Beijing West, while the fastest ICE from München Hbf via Berlin to Hamburg Hbf still needs about 6h to cover a distance of 612km, and the second class ticket costs 70-130 Euros depending on the departure time and the speed of the train in 1 day advance. The similar distance in China from Zhengzhou to Beijing (about 693km) takes only 2.5-3 hours (fastest service 2h11min) and a second class ticket with seat reservation costs 40-45 Euros.
If you prefer to save a bit of budget, let‘s compare the service from Zhengzhou to Beijing with average travel speed around 100-120km/h, similar with ICE München-Hamburg. The D-Train operated by CR200J and the conventional Z-Train, take 6-6.5 hours from Zhengzhou to Beijing, travel on conventional rails with maximum speed of 160km/h, cost less than 20 Euros of a second class with reservation (CR200J D-Trains), or even 20-25 Euros with a cheapest sleeper on Z-Trains.
That’s pretty impressive. In the USA, Chicago to San Francisco is a 52 hour trip by Amtrak train. A trip of 8 hours means you don’t need to sleep on the train as well.
actually , you can choose a window seat when you book tickets on the app. The journey is quite far from guangzhou to Beijing, if the distance longer than 6 hours , it is more comfortable to take plane than high speed train.

Travelled to several cities in China with my sister on the bullet trains before COVID. Our seats were in first class and on one trip VIP seats. We booked well in advance so wasn’t very expensive. Trains and stations were super clean and very modern. Had western toilets and meals on the class we travelled in. No problem with your suitcase getting stolen China is a safe destination. Love their trains!
I traveled from Hong Kong to Beijing by train in 1981 and it was a polar opposite experience. It took a total of 48 hours without AC, shower and a toilet hole where all the human waste went straight down to the track (gross - I know!). By the time I arrived my face was dark because of all the coal and dust from the open windows. Enjoy Beijing. You will have a blast!
To put this into context, to go a similar distance on Amtrak in the US today would take 45 hours. So American trains today are about on par in speed with China in 1981. Although I doubt the speeds in America have changed much since 1981.
Mind-Blown! What an epic journey! Your detailed insights made it feel like I was right there with you. Kudos on navigating the train stations and sharing the unique train experience. Excited for your Beijing adventures! Safe travels!
The price of the train ticket is actually the same no matter when you bought the ticket. It's a fixed price decided by the train department to make sure that most people can afford it.
❤that video. Wow.!!!The changes in China is amazing. I have only been in Shanghai many years ago, and watching all this vlogs in China is just an eye opener. Wow 👍🏻. Very informative vlogs Ken❤. Always stay safe!
Hi Ken, glad to know you still traveling in China. Sharing awesome vlogs about your experiences over there. I'm very keen to know how to travel such a long journey by land transportation in China. And now you share it. Thanks a lot. It's very useful information, at least for myself. Looking forward your other vlog(s) from Beijing. Stay safe and healthy.
First time I was in China we traveled more than a half day on a diesel train from Beijing to Jinan. Today you can do that trip in less than two hours. What an amazing piece of infrastructure
Yes, I mentioned to a coworker here in the U.S. that it's normal for countries to build, e.g., new train lines, new electricity infrastructure, new buildings for housing, and he was surprised. People here are so used to nothing changing, I think we just give up and lose all perspective.
Thanks for sharing your experience, sharing is caring! Last summer when I went back to China, I took the High speed train from Beijing to Zhengzhou, really nice experience, the ride was very smooth, and the highest speed reached is 350 Km/h, I even made a coca cola bottle stability test.

In any moving vehicle when you read for a while, you can get a little dizzy. It is best to close your eyes and take a short nap. And don’t look out of the moving train window for long time. Motion sickness.
From Florida to New York which is just 1,200 miles will take me 1 day 5 hours to get there on train 😢. High speed is the way to go even better than flying within a country
Flying is a good bit faster at that distance. But I also prefer high speed rail because it's more environmentally friendly and it's less of a hassle, and I like the views. China has some big advantages over the US in this department though because it has a much bigger market for medium and short range Intercity transport. Most of China's 1.4 billion live in the eastern half of the country, while US's comparatively denser east side has maybe 180 or 200 million people, and thus a lot fewer major urban centers within HSR range of each other. And of course ease of land acquisition and political organization behind infrastructure are way higher in China.
What a coincidence！I am a cantonese and at university in Beijing now. In last September, I went back Beijing from Guangzhou by the same train(G80）.it's also a fancy experience for me！Have a good travel in china! Looking forward to your next vlog
Great vid. And you do a great job with the narration and explanation with the vid. Train is amazing altho you looked a bit cramped---like a plane! Your nausea on the train is similar to many of my friends experiences when trying to read in a moving car. Not unusual, Thanks.
Since there are many high-speed train lines in China, traveling from one city to another is generally much easier and cheaper than just taking a plane or a motor vehicle
Hi Ken! I saw your video recently. it's cool. I am a native chinese resident. I hope you will have a perfect traveling experience in China. Oh by the way ，your lever8 might be made in China.😊 Enjoy your journey:) China is a huge and great country!❤
Additional comments: There are 600+ cities in China. Most of them are fantastic. People are friendly! However I really recommend that you can travel to Yun Nan province, Sichuan province, Xing Jiang province and Tibet province. You would be excited if can see the huge snow mountains , big rivers, valley, lakes and great desert as always. ❤ Cities are not only made of China but also the real nature. Fantastic nature:) 🎉🎉🎉
@@zackk7175 As a Chinese, I can tell you that the truth. It's not a problem that you talk about Taiwan, even if you assume Taiwan is an independent. The Chinese people will just argue with you but will not call the police and put you into jail. It's because you're just a tourist, not a politician. Feel free to come to China and you will see you can discuss everything with Chinese people include political issue.
@@zackk7175 First of all, Japan, including the United Nations, recognizes Taiwan as a part of China. How can the so-called president be legal? Secondly, you Japanese have done too much to hurt the Chinese people. You have not apologized for the Nanjing Massacre, and you have also paid homage to the Yasukuni Shrine, hurting national sentiments. Wouldn’t the Chinese be disgusted? Then, China has not banned wearing kimonos. There are many people on the Chinese video website Bilibili who like Japanese two-dimensional culture and kimonos. Finally, the kimono was originally learned from the Tang Dynasty of China by the envoys you sent to the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that it was copied. Even Japanese traditions are from China.In addition,this video are not political.Don't talk about irrelevant content!
In 1987 ish, I took the same route. it took 3 days. Slept in a room with 2 bunk beds and still remember that the other bunk bed was occupied by a couple. The train station was probably just a 10th of the current size.
The price of the train tickets are fixed,it won’t be cheaper if you book it earlier. The price of flight tickets might changed depends on the time you purchase.Some people who are afraid of height they will choose train rather than flights.and also the train always goes on time and you don’t have to arrive to the train station earlier as long as the airport. Even the price are similar ,but the time you spend on train or plane plus the time you heading to the station is similar.and also sometimes the train station is closer to city cbd but the airport is not. So lots of people will choose go by train.
I was in Beijing in 2002 with my Thai wife. Wow, 22 years ago now, a lifetime! But we traveled from Kunming to Chongquing to Beijing by train, spending a few days in each location in between. Ken, my advice is to go to Laos. I love that country so much.
Yeah, i was in China back in 2018,people are very friendly for sure,you should visit rural places also, i was in Hainan, way different than big cities.
That looked like a fun and very comfortable journey. Were you uploading your videos of China while you were still in the country using a VPN? I was in Macao recently, but you can access youtube there. I'd love to go to mainland China. I'm wondering if there would be any problems with the Chinese government if I were posting videos while I was traveling there.
Oh, hi Gabriel ✌️ yeah I uploaded some of the videos while being in China with a VPN, no problem. I'd recommend having a few VPN as some of them are not that reliable in China. And if you have a Chinese esim, VPN is not needed actually
Hi Ken,my husband and I like watching ur videos in China~I am Chinese and live in Shanghai now. I highly recommend u visit Wuhan where u mentioned in the video and is also my hometown. it is a lovely city with huge river and delicious foods, and friendly people. hope u can visit there someday😊
@@TarulWarlordIf that's what you think, then that's what you think. Have you ever been to China? People who haven't been here don't have the right to judge China. What you see about China on the internet is just the media's deliberate smearing. 🤣🤣🤣
It's fascinating how amazing China made high speed rail connections in such a short time and America has accomplished so little in the same time frame. I understand there are reason as to why, but the difference is astonishing
Summer is better. There is snow on the roads in Xinjiang in winter, and the traffic conditions are not as good as in summer. In addition, long-term handheld shooting video in cold conditions is not so easy😂
OMG! 7 hours from Guangzhou to Beijing? I rode train from Guangzhou to Beijing in 1990s, it took about 24 hours! It was so tiring even I took the sleeper train, I could sleep overnight. What an advance! That is crazy.
Good thing about China is you can leave your suite case in the front and no one will steal it, the crime rate is so low because of the homogeneous society. Also I believe the reason you feel nauseous and sick is because you have motion sickness, you should go to a pharmacy next time and buy some medication with Meclozine in it which treats travel sickness.
@cheungchingtong Even though the train is very stable, there is some slight shaking. If you're viewing something like text on your phone that needs focus. Can cause dizziness.
I have severe motion sickness problem but i’m usually ok if i dont try to read or look at my phone in the car. When i go back to china (havent been for long time), im curious to see how i will feel on the high speed trains
Quite hilarious watching you record , squashed between two other commuters . Legspace doesn't look too good . Otherwise the station is huge and hence doesn't appear crowded with all the other commuters .
This is incredibly helpful! I’m sat in a Chinese railway station waiting to board and I quickly tried to find a video that would show me where I store my luggage once I’m on board. Your video was the first one to come up!
I just want a high-speed train from L.A. to Las Vegas. Las Vegas has become a very popular tourists destination and driving between L.A. and Las Vegas is a nightmare.

The price of the train ticket is actually the same no matter when you bought the ticket. It's a fixed price decided by the train department to make sure that most people can afford it.

I hope you can stay longer in China. Xinjiang and Tibet are definitely a good choice.
Summer is better in these area 😊

Hi Ken, glad to know you still traveling in China. Sharing awesome vlogs about your experiences over there.
I'm very keen to know how to travel such a long journey by land transportation in China. And now you share it. Thanks a lot. It's very useful information, at least for myself.
Looking forward your other vlog(s) from Beijing.
Stay safe and healthy.
🙏
The ticket fee is fixed, and the fare is the same whether you buy it a few days in advance or on the departure day~
Going across China by train in October. From Guangzhou to Chengdu, to Xi'an, to Beijing and ending in Shanghai. Your video got me even more excited!
I remember more than two decades ago, it took more than 13 hours to travel from Shanghai to Beijing. Now it only takes about 4 hours 🎉
Because of China's development, traveling from one city to another is generally quicker
so froh!!!!!! endlich dein Video in Peking zu sehen. ich freue mich schon sehr auf dein nächstes Video, wenn du zur Chinesischen Mauer gehst!😍
Fantastic video! Very informative and helpful.
🙏
Welcome to Beijing! Have a nice trip😊
Thanks 😊
First time I was in China we traveled more than a half day on a diesel train from Beijing to Jinan. Today you can do that trip in less than two hours. What an amazing piece of infrastructure
Enjoyed your video, thank you. Keep warm and welcome to Beijing.
Thank you 😊
with all the stops the train still averaged over 300km/h... that's really consistently fast!!!
good math

Yes, I mentioned to a coworker here in the U.S. that it's normal for countries to build, e.g., new train lines, new electricity infrastructure, new buildings for housing, and he was surprised. People here are so used to nothing changing, I think we just give up and lose all perspective.
Yes it's terrible; don't try to come here. Pass the word along.

Thanks for sharing your experience, sharing is caring! Last summer when I went back to China, I took the High speed train from Beijing to Zhengzhou, really nice experience, the ride was very smooth, and the highest speed reached is 350 Km/h, I even made a coca cola bottle stability test.
Try it bro, you can ride the highest speed train for the first time in Southeast Asia. The highest speed is 350 kilometers per hour, the Indonesian fast train Jakarta - Bandung, the newest, most sophisticated in Southeast Asia, the first,.the way to the beautiful and comfortable and beautiful and cool and cool city of Bandung, thank you sis and bro..*°°^

Very cool Ken👍Enjoy the Beijing journey
This is a must travel train across China. You could see China from the south to the north! Wonderful! 🎉🎉🎉
Agree. I took this route about 10 years ago. It was a journey of re-learning geographical China.
Yah but it's 7 hrs and 37 minutes. That's a lot of time.
In any moving vehicle when you read for a while, you can get a little dizzy. It is best to close your eyes and take a short nap. And don’t look out of the moving train window for long time. Motion sickness.
Wow only 7 plus hours all that way. Amazing! Great video
From Florida to New York which is just 1,200 miles will take me 1 day 5 hours to get there on train 😢. High speed is the way to go even better than flying within a country
Yah but in the USA there is freedom and some homeless people.
Flying is a good bit faster at that distance. But I also prefer high speed rail because it's more environmentally friendly and it's less of a hassle, and I like the views. China has some big advantages over the US in this department though because it has a much bigger market for medium and short range Intercity transport. Most of China's 1.4 billion live in the eastern half of the country, while US's comparatively denser east side has maybe 180 or 200 million people, and thus a lot fewer major urban centers within HSR range of each other. And of course ease of land acquisition and political organization behind infrastructure are way higher in China.
Reading on the train, feeling Dizzy. Check your eyes. Could be that.
Love all your vlogs and thanks for sharing
Enjoy your journey in Beijing 😊
thanks for your video. like your exploring spirit, trying to figure out things while embrace the unexpected. that's the fun of travel 😊 have fun
What a coincidence！I am a cantonese and at university in Beijing now. In last September, I went back Beijing from Guangzhou by the same train(G80）.it's also a fancy experience for me！Have a good travel in china! Looking forward to your next vlog
damn those train station making me goosebumps, it looks very futuristic
They are going to celebrate Chinese New Year next week. Hope you won't get stuck with the crowd.

Great vid. And you do a great job with the narration and explanation with the vid. Train is amazing altho you looked a bit cramped---like a plane! Your nausea on the train is similar to many of my friends experiences when trying to read in a moving car. Not unusual, Thanks.
Since there are many high-speed train lines in China, traveling from one city to another is generally much easier and cheaper than just taking a plane or a motor vehicle
Hi Ken! I saw your video recently. it's cool. I am a native chinese resident. I hope you will have a perfect traveling experience in China. Oh by the way ，your lever8 might be made in China.😊 Enjoy your journey:) China is a huge and great country!❤
Additional comments: There are 600+ cities in China. Most of them are fantastic. People are friendly! However I really recommend that you can travel to Yun Nan province, Sichuan province, Xing Jiang province and Tibet province. You would be excited if can see the huge snow mountains , big rivers, valley, lakes and great desert as always. ❤ Cities are not only made of China but also the real nature. Fantastic nature:) 🎉🎉🎉

@@zackk7175 As a Chinese, I can tell you that the truth. It's not a problem that you talk about Taiwan, even if you assume Taiwan is an independent. The Chinese people will just argue with you but will not call the police and put you into jail. It's because you're just a tourist, not a politician. Feel free to come to China and you will see you can discuss everything with Chinese people include political issue.
@@zackk7175 First of all, Japan, including the United Nations, recognizes Taiwan as a part of China. How can the so-called president be legal? Secondly, you Japanese have done too much to hurt the Chinese people. You have not apologized for the Nanjing Massacre, and you have also paid homage to the Yasukuni Shrine, hurting national sentiments. Wouldn’t the Chinese be disgusted? Then, China has not banned wearing kimonos. There are many people on the Chinese video website Bilibili who like Japanese two-dimensional culture and kimonos. Finally, the kimono was originally learned from the Tang Dynasty of China by the envoys you sent to the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that it was copied. Even Japanese traditions are from China.In addition,this video are not political.Don't talk about irrelevant content!

In 1987 ish, I took the same route. it took 3 days. Slept in a room with 2 bunk beds and still remember that the other bunk bed was occupied by a couple.
The train station was probably just a 10th of the current size.
1987 was 37 years ago.
The price of the train tickets are fixed,it won’t be cheaper if you book it earlier. The price of flight tickets might changed depends on the time you purchase.Some people who are afraid of height they will choose train rather than flights.and also the train always goes on time and you don’t have to arrive to the train station earlier as long as the airport. Even the price are similar ,but the time you spend on train or plane plus the time you heading to the station is similar.and also sometimes the train station is closer to city cbd but the airport is not. So lots of people will choose go by train.
Welcome to China! I like your videos very much 🎉
Thank you 😊
Happy Chinese new year
I was in Beijing in 2002 with my Thai wife. Wow, 22 years ago now, a lifetime! But we traveled from Kunming to Chongquing to Beijing by train, spending a few days in each location in between. Ken, my advice is to go to Laos. I love that country so much.
Now possible to travel from Chongqing to Vientiane by train
If you come to china again nowadays, you’ll find a totally different country compared to 2022
In 1988 during spring festival, I took a train ride from Guangzhou to Beijing or Shenyang for 66 hours.😅
Yeah, i was in China back in 2018,people are very friendly for sure,you should visit rural places also, i was in Hainan, way different than big cities.

That looked like a fun and very comfortable journey. Were you uploading your videos of China while you were still in the country using a VPN? I was in Macao recently, but you can access youtube there. I'd love to go to mainland China. I'm wondering if there would be any problems with the Chinese government if I were posting videos while I was traveling there.
Oh, hi Gabriel ✌️ yeah I uploaded some of the videos while being in China with a VPN, no problem. I'd recommend having a few VPN as some of them are not that reliable in China. And if you have a Chinese esim, VPN is not needed actually
I see, great to know, enjoy the travels. 👊

It's fascinating how amazing China made high speed rail connections in such a short time and America has accomplished so little in the same time frame. I understand there are reason as to why, but the difference is astonishing
2,298 kms in 7 hours and 37 minutes. That's approx 310 kmph average speed of this train. Incredible.
And includ the stop time.
@@yourtemp6135 I think that time also includes stoppages and halts.
Sure hope other nations follow this magnificent lead in rail construction! 👍
You also have Beijing-HK direct train. That would be the longest one. Beijing to Lhasa train is also very interesting journey to take.

China is amazing most of all Chinese are kind people. Safe traveling is here, no worries perhaps just a little.
Good thing about China is you can leave your suite case in the front and no one will steal it, the crime rate is so low because of the homogeneous society. Also I believe the reason you feel nauseous and sick is because you have motion sickness, you should go to a pharmacy next time and buy some medication with Meclozine in it which treats travel sickness.
He just couldn't handle the 350KM/H speed for haven't experienced it before I guess, next time he should be fine.
@cheungchingtong Even though the train is very stable, there is some slight shaking. If you're viewing something like text on your phone that needs focus. Can cause dizziness.
I have severe motion sickness problem but i’m usually ok if i dont try to read or look at my phone in the car. When i go back to china (havent been for long time), im curious to see how i will feel on the high speed trains
In fact the high speed rail ticket price is fix regardless when you book it. It only depends on the route and seat class.
Suggestion to anti-dizziness: Sleep 😂 Don't read on the train, the visual and the fast movement of the body will confuse the brain🧠
