China truly is a beautiful country and culture. Sometimes it's hard to watch the heritage of the past being lost in what we say is progress. Culture is and always should be a strength that binds the nation. Anton
I'm Indian. I have a great respect to China. I don't know why I'm so obsessed with Martial arts and Chinese cultures. I think when I was so young like 4 years, I watched a Chinese martial arts movie, but unfortunately I was so young to look for the movie name. (I still trying to find the movie by some sences that still in my head) From then, I'm in love with Martial arts and Chinese culture.....etc. If I really visit China then I'll make sure to visit this place.
Sadly this is not solely a issues within China, I spent 15 yrs of my life living in Japan and everyday a piece of history was lost. Kyoto was a prime example with it's unique style of tradional home called a Kyo Machia, the city keeps ordering them to be removed, it is foreigners who are buying these and restoring them to their former beauty. Foreigners are having to help preserve a aspect of Kyotos history that the Local people seem unwilling to do. Their is a old saying not sure by who, to know ones self is to know ones past, only then can the future be embraced, I hope beautiful China can learn from it's storied history, that not all that is new and shiny is Gold. Loved the video you have a new subscriber as China has always facinated me and I love seeing not only the new but the old China, many blessing upon you, thank you!
Beautifully said. I am also a new subscriber as l watched this documentary as you tube recommendation. Once in awhile they show me something interesting. Historic buildings, whole villages, and towns disappear everywhere in the world sadly. Understandable, people today want to live in comfort, and not in isolation, nor have limited access to education. But l have seen in other documentaries, that middle aged Chinese, who succeeded in their professions started looking for houses, properties to restore them to their old glory. Let’s hope for future glory. Thank you. Cheers, Judy 🌏🦘
For some time China took 'a leaf out of the westerners book' in as much as learning to value and preserve one's historic structures, cultural arts and try to incorporate it into something the public can access too as it belongs to the public as do the government funds to renovate it! At the same time educating the public to respect it, protect it and care about it, to engage with it, be attracted to it. I've heard for a long time now that China has begun to do this although sometimes their understanding of how to protect is more destructive than protective. It's good that they've left that ancient emperor's tomb with a lake or rivers of mercury sealed until better technology and understanding of how to open it without destroying it exists. If that's the real reason. Of course the level of importance of how carefully something is treated depends on what the item / project is, China needs to learn this, too and that stems from a change of mindset from the top down or from the level of demand from the bottom up. We can only hope this improvement happens sooner than later. China and it's people are wondrous, amazing, dynamic, dramatic, exciting, beautiful, emotional, tragic, sometimes cruel, mentally suffocated, an unpolished rough stone that needs outside help to become a beautiful shining gem of lasting quality rather than just "sparkling glass" and racism, scorn and arrogance. The potential is so tempting yet proving so tragic each year, each month, which is so sad. It feels that the people of China have suffered non stop for centuries by their own hand, by invaders and emperors, then by others and from a mindset of money first above all rather than the more altruistic or (Christian ethic) of helping others too and being honest, honest in love, life, business, rather than seeing honesty as a missed opportunity to benefit through a lie then laugh at how well they tricked you after you were trusting them, honourably. The deep level of oppression, of servitude has never stopped if you think of it historically, never ceased and it effects the mindset and progress of each and all and ironically it is wished that this misery be spread around the globe. If that isn't insanity, what is! Corruption small or large destroys a country's progress and China is not alone in this but there are degrees of corruption. Less developed countries are plagued by it and will even tell you they like the bribery 'system' for getting things done! How naive, how ignorant, but when you have no experience of any other way how can you understand the damage it doesnor how things still get done but more fairly and and no one is missed out or suffers, infrastructure and systems to cope better grow and perfect instead?! China needs to stop seeing the west as a threat and try harder to understand the differences between them and embrace the most sophisticated country's as friends with a more open mind. The arts, culture are not the place for political scrutiny, surveillance and constant overseeing for political reasons. Not everything and every one requires watching and following, questioning, it's an obsession China seems to have and to any outsider it appears Chinese authorities mus have a serious case of ASD or Asperger's Syndrome. The human race has no time left for fear and threats. Sadly it's becoming more and more difficult to separate anything to do with China from the threats they present to most of those beyond China, and I use the word "beyond" rather than "outside" as I live in hope for China and us all, because "outside" is a word that suggests China is indeed walled-off and secular, rather than open and breathing the fresh air of choice, variety, exposure, learning, experience and cooperation from which China would only benefit and grow.and become.an important contribution to mankind's overall progress. Now we are ready to carry art and cute to the stars and how is it being done?... ...Secretly, desperately with a wall around Chinese and European projects as China proves they can't be trusted. Even Russia cooperated in space with Eurocentric nations successfully for a decade or three. How sad it that even space and our moon is not too far away nor to romantic to shed off the worst of human characteristics. The world wishes China well, if only China wished the world well too instead of making enemies and upsetting other nations at almost every turn on the international stage, and with a hankering for imperialism harming back to centuries past. China needs to preach love and inclusion, not bigotry and negativity, it would help with everything including the romantic beauty of the country, and in construction and restoration, even in the maintenance of vital infrastructure after quakes floods etc. We are stronger together than alone and we are all going to need to cooperate and strengthen each other's nation if we are to survive the next hundred years which will be the worst mankind has ever experienced. I love the romantic treatment given these videos by this young woman, she's poetic and her delivery is intimate, personal, moving. I hope these go from strength to strength. I also hope Chinese can feel compliments are not only deserving but can reflect upon the warmth kindness and well meaning of those leaving positive comments as our comments also reflect on our open mindedness, our stand against racism, our appreciation of other very exotic very different cultures and the allowances, tolerance made for this. It's a willingness not to judge so quickly. Also to accept that there may be things you do not understand which does not mean others of another race or culture are stupid or foolish but rather that there can be a subtlety in things you do not know, yet can learn. If only we could all learn to get along and videos like these could also glorify our undying love for each nation. I suppose that like the host of this Channel, I'm a bit of a romantic dreamer too. If more of us were the world might be a better place, don't knock the dreamer. It's a luxury earned by cooperation, wealth and the kind of salt production community the narrator describes in one of their videos, "Ghost City", they were able to buy what they needed rather than a life of quite so much hard labour, this allows people the time to dream, imagine, create, progress their community and country, but you need your heart on the right place to succeed, ultimately. Meanness guarantees you a place in hell or as in the video, "the place the gods send you for torture".
Incredible footage and journalism. Glad the algorhithm brought this to my feed and looking forward to watching all your other videos. I absolutely love the architecture of China.
Living in ancient China through your eyes and words is truly a delight. My wife is from Guilin and I've become obsessed with Chinese history for the past 10 years. Thank you for your videos. If I may be so bold as to make a request.... The background music tends to drown out your narrative, so if you could decrease the music volume or increase your speech, things would be better...at least for me.
From this alone your channel deserves to be flooded with subscribers, this is awesome! Such a beautiful video and so informative, about an amazing place I'd never have known about otherwise. I can hardly imagine how busy and beautiful this place must have been for so very long.
@@Honglin65 Everything the Chinese make is garbage, scrap, waste, crap and dirt. Everything that comes from China is fraud, lies, fake, robbery, betray and corruption.
This was your hometown!? It has such a natural beauty and deserves to have government investment in manpower and materials to renovate it throughout and turn it onto both a home for a growing community and secondly for tourism and historic protection.
The narrow valley road and ruined salt town reminds me of the western Sichuan towns I've seen and traveled through, situated alongside rivers in narrow and steep sided valleys. Your video shows us that this ancient village developed into a busy industry. No doubt there were many people living there and it was an important economy to those living and working in the area. The old buildings and. your narrative helps us imagine the hustle and bustle of life in the salt town. Your command of English language is very good as well as your descriptive observations. You have a an interesting channel which teaches us how life is now, and was, in China. Thankyou.
I had just watched "Little Chinese Everywhere" channel and then this popped up in the list to watch. Thank you for a wonderful, historic tale. I like your choice of quiet music and soft voice in telling the story. Salt is a part of history that covers the rise and fall of mankind itself. Thanks for a very nice show. I subscribed and liked. Happy Trails from Florida.
l am come from "Little Chinese Everywhere" channel too, and l am from shenzhen china, so this world is so small , really small , l talked with you ,and we watch the same content.
That was an incredible exploration of an ancient town. Just fascinating how something that is so taken for granted now could be such an important commodity at one time. Amazing! And the confluence of 3 rivers as tributaries of the Yangtze River, amazing!Thanks for sharing this with us!!!
You're so talented, the storytelling and editing and the way you explain everything. I definitely subscribed and your channel deserves to be seen by so many. Commenting in the hopes this helps the algorhithm - I hope more people find your wonderful channel 💕
This is an excellent production - the script, cinematography and music. Thank you for showing us the history of your country. I am a Chinese in south east asia and would love to visit China one day. I won't be able to access places like this so I appreciate seeing it through your lens.
What a beautiful programme. Stunning place. I can imagine the towns folk all those years ago going about their daily lives. I really like the original sound,,walking up the steps, water running etc. And a waterfall in the house!! What!!!! Epic!!!! ❤😊
Thank you for recording this one. It makes me sad that such history is slowly forgotten by time. 4000 years of salt making and now the town is almost abandoned. It might be gone completely in the next 20+ years but videos like this one preserve the history forever.
It's 10 month's later and this just turned up on my RUclips feed, so know one will probably see this comment. I found this video absolutely amazing. 4000 years of history and culture. This just blew my mind. I can't get enough of this. It is very interesting ❤
I loved this documentary. Chongqing surprises me all the time. I started watching vlogs about Chongqing, because of Xiao Zhan and Chen Kun the actors being from Chongqing, probably many more from this region. I think there is a famous Chongqing hot pot. Anyway, this was so interesting, heartbreaking, and heartwarming at the same time, still seeing the remnants of this salt producing place. It’s a nostalgic place. These type of houses, “industry”, breathe past, present, and maybe one day will have a future. As everything decays, but one day resurrect itself to something new. We don’t know the future, as we live on the edge of destruction in general, so these places will be the future survival villages. I can’t explain it, but this is my perception, my intuition whenever l see lost, deserted enclaves. It’s touching and haunting. Thank you. I enjoyed your documentary, and subscribed. Will watch your other works slowly too. Greetings from Judy , Melbourne, AUS
Hello from the UK! I just found your channel and have subscribed. What a fascinating and historic place, quite sad to see it deserted and run down, but very atmospheric. I will be watching all your other videos and hope to see you add more soon. Wish you success and many more subscribers!
Thank you for sharing! Your coverage of this historical ancient town was educational, measured, and fair. I think you presented the city beautifully. So informative, well spoken, and fantastic footage and editing, as well! I look forward to watching more of your content!
What a beautiful place. I live in Shenzhen but I travel all around China for my job, I'll absolutely make a point of gong there one day. Lovely video, thank you! Subscribed :)
Watching this masterpiece from India and hope i will travel this beautiful place someday, India and China share so many similarities in tradition, these type of rural life can be seen here tooo lots of love for the people and kudos to this channel keep exploring and keep narrating the stories of these villages ❤️
Thank you for your kind words! It's wonderful to hear about the shared similarities in traditions. I am also excited to continue sharing more stories of either popular cities or unknown rural areas in China. Stay tuned for more adventures!
for sure really very excited, the way you narrate each and everything is so good keep going . This channel will grow very soon as it contains one of the best works of RUclips @@Honglin65
Another very good and excellently filmed video! Loved it! Plus your videos are so informative and interesting. We're learning so much about China. I look forward to your next episode.
Thank you. I'm so glad I've found you. What a beautiful video and i love the music you chose to go with it. I also love the choice you made to film this visit on a cloudy wet day as it really conveys i think the tone you wanted to set. Lovely.
Thank you for your amazing educational clip on a beautiful country and people who have continued to give the world a look at its wonderful history, inventivbeness, and stunning progress.
Even though it's a lonely life, I am glad the government has not forced the elders to locate so they may spend the rest of their lives in peace. We live in cities but can be just as isolated as many don't even know their neighbours. May the elderly citizens remain healthy and blessed.
First time watching one of your videos as youtube recommended me your channel. I felt like I needed to make this comment, just to say this was an amazing video! Very well done, nicely explained, and gives great vibes. Keep up the good work!
This looks beautiful in its own unique way. After watching a video of Chongqing city yesterday my jaw dropped how futuristic / technologically advanced and absolutely breathtaking the city looks from an architectural perspective. The fact that this amazing natural scenery is also part of Chongqing makes me want to go even more.
Absolutely beautiful video! I randomly stumbled upon this, and i am amazed! I could feel myself imaging another time in a faraway land. Lovely and educational! As long as i had stable internet connection, I wouldn't mind living in a beautiful place that time has forgotten.
you know this mixed feelings of wonder, desolation and longing for a life that was. That feeling of wanting to hold on to but being dragged into a chaotic fast paced modern, money driven life. Well thank God for modern services like the internet. I can watch videos like this as I retreat to the silence in my heart. Thank you for sharing this Lady.
Very good videography & detailed narration on site. This is intrinsic discovery of old enchanting China without having to travel to China! Love it! 😀😀😀
I am the 564th subscriber to your channel. Someday, I believe your channel will reach millions of subscribers. I'll be able to look back at this comment and proudly say I was here from the beginning.
This was such a fascinating and well made video I’m so glad I found it!!! Your way of telling stories is so calm. I had no idea salt came from this source!!
I really enjoyed all of the historical context you included here. It makes me really want to visit that place despite the melancholy of the buildings falling apart and loss of a once thriving salt industry, its a beautiful place.
Such a wonderful history on that town. Hopefully it will renovate and preserve such a good place to explore for tourists.Thank you for this wonderful videos.
Good video!! Very interesting that salt was produced from that area for thousands of years. One suggestion for you, the background music at the end of your video is so loud I cannot understand what you’re saying. Please try to make the background music subtle compared to your voice. Thanks.
Sentimental about this area . I Love salt & spices . The Heritage of this place is important . Exstordinary salt can be mailed all over the world ❤️🌹❤️
Nice video, thank you for the effort to make it in English so we can learn about your beautiful country. This town remined me of the "ghost towns" in the US from the gold rush days.
Thank you so much for your great video about the old salt town. Really enjoyed this. I think your interest in preserving Chinese history and your command of the English language language will win you many subscribers. Bravo
Love your video so nostalgic but surely such places has a long colourful history. Can't imagine how the people live over thousand years ago. Please keep making such wonderful video and am sure no many people get a chance to visit such places.
China truly is a beautiful country and culture. Sometimes it's hard to watch the heritage of the past being lost in what we say is progress. Culture is and always should be a strength that binds the nation. Anton

Wouaouh ! I love this documentary and the music :) thanks a lot
You deserve more recognition for your work. Subed
thank you so much for bring the unseen rural china that I really love to watch all these rural areas of china makes me feel dejavu
Even though it's a lonely life, I am glad the government has not forced the elders to locate so they may spend the rest of their lives in peace.
We live in cities but can be just as isolated as many don't even know their neighbours. May the elderly citizens remain healthy and blessed.

我也很喜欢她，感谢订阅
This looks beautiful in its own unique way. After watching a video of Chongqing city yesterday my jaw dropped how futuristic / technologically advanced and absolutely breathtaking the city looks from an architectural perspective. The fact that this amazing natural scenery is also part of Chongqing makes me want to go even more.
It's amazing! You are so beautiful! When I see you O want to come to China and meet you. Oh, I enjoyed seeing the old salt mining town too.
Beautiful I see so much potential and bringing it back to life
Absolutely beautiful video! I randomly stumbled upon this, and i am amazed! I could feel myself imaging another time in a faraway land. Lovely and educational! As long as i had stable internet connection, I wouldn't mind living in a beautiful place that time has forgotten.
One day you will be a great RUclipsr❤❤keep going ❤love from nepal❤
you know this mixed feelings of wonder, desolation and longing for a life that was. That feeling of wanting to hold on to but being dragged into a chaotic fast paced modern, money driven life. Well thank God for modern services like the internet. I can watch videos like this as I retreat to the silence in my heart. Thank you for sharing this Lady.
Thank you for sharing some your country's history and beauty!
This vlog should have a million views & subs!
such a beautiful but wasted place, too sad, hope the village could recover again to its former glory.
Very good videography & detailed narration on site. This is intrinsic discovery of old enchanting China without having to travel to China!
Love it! 😀😀😀

What a wonderful video. I enjoyed the relaxed style and mellow music. An interesting exploration.
Thank you Jay❤️
I really enjoyed all of the historical context you included here. It makes me really want to visit that place despite the melancholy of the buildings falling apart and loss of a once thriving salt industry, its a beautiful place.
beautiful scenery and interesting thank you
Such a wonderful history on that town. Hopefully it will renovate and preserve such a good place to explore for tourists.Thank you for this wonderful videos.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good video!! Very interesting that salt was produced from that area for thousands of years.
One suggestion for you, the background music at the end of your video is so loud I cannot understand what you’re saying. Please try to make the background music subtle compared to your voice. Thanks.
Thanks for the tips!
Saya suka dengan sejarah kuno Tiongkok ....membawa khayalan ku ke masa2 kerajaan ...sangat takjub dengan kota2 kuno yang masih ada sampe sekarang.
Terima kasih telah menyukainya.
Sentimental about this area . I Love salt & spices . The Heritage of this place is important . Exstordinary salt can be mailed all over the world ❤️🌹❤️
Nice video, thank you for the effort to make it in English so we can learn about your beautiful country. This town remined me of the "ghost towns" in the US from the gold rush days.
You are speaking my mind!
看得出你下了功夫去挖掘历史和花了不少时间去整理出这么棒的视屏， 值得赞哦！
这些旅程都你一个人啊？ 危险吧？下次我陪你冒险去！
Thank you so much for your great video about the old salt town. Really enjoyed this.
I think your interest in preserving Chinese history and your command of the English language language will win you many subscribers.

Love your video so nostalgic but surely such places has a long colourful history. Can't imagine how the people live over thousand years ago. Please keep making such wonderful video and am sure no many people get a chance to visit such places.
