thanks kate,just what i need.
Very nice video. A lot of vlogers had left China in the last several years so it's cool that you are still at it.
That's eastern China...not "south".
seriously kate,i am a malaysia chinese and i'm trying to test both my mandarine level and english level which i'm quite confidence with,do you know any website i can use?
Was that the worst thing you've ever drank in your entire life? You are so funny. And beautiful.
Once again great interactions with the local folks to extract fun and historical details about the area and themselves. Amazing drone shots too! :D
What a beautiful place and scenery, Katherine! You really are blessed person to been able to go to a small Villages like this one. Good for us to follow your Channel. Many thanks from Brazil.
Wife and I love your content and gives it great joy in knowing we will be relocating to China at end of the year! You make a great travel guide, keep up the great work
That was a wonderful detour trip. The semi-abandoned village could be converted to a beautiful holiday attraction for tourists. Great job Katherine.
Great idea. And also need reasons for tourists to visit. Need an area tourism board to get it going
@@gordkao The one Katherine visited is already a tourist destination. I gather it's the flow of revenue that helped to keep the abandoned houses standing.
The point is there are just too many such villages in the region - or in China in general - and not enough drive to make every one of them a tourist destination. And these particular villages in southern Zhejiang aren't very accessible - pull out Google Maps with terrain on, you'll realize even with all the freshly built paved roads connecting the most remote corners to the grid, the mountains make sure it's still hours to get from point A to B.
寻常行处在你镜头里尽显诗意.
Congrats on hitting 100k subscribers! I've just been in the region last October checking out ancient relics and buildings preserved in the mountains. Definitely fascinating and unique, this part of Zhejiang/Fujian (and where isn't in China, besides the concrete-printed parts of the big cities?). If you have time - not really I gather now that you must have finished the task on site - the 14th century Shisi Temple not far from Qingyuan is a gem. Also the ancient covered bridges - there are just too many and impossible to cover all, as the mountain roads are so time consuming!
I would love to make a return trip and do a bike tour from Qingyuan to fujian , it’s one of the most interesting and scenic places I’ve been to since my return from the US ⛰
3:12 It's a mini shrine worshipping the talisman of Wuxian Emperor, a popular deity native to southern Zhejiang and northern Fujian, accompanied by Wu Sangong, a 12th century farmer deified as the local God of Mushroom, also ancestor of Uncle Wu's clan; Liu Bowen, legendary advisor to Hongwu Emperor (think Merlin) , a local of Qingtian County not far away; plus some more commonly worshipped deities. Each part of China have their own local deities, which not unlike the many saints in Christianity, are remnants of much older belief systems. A bit further south you'll likely be in the land of the Monkey King - not as the nation's favorite supernatural hero, but in its original form as a mountain god that dates back to at least a millennia before Journey to the West.
西游记是假的...只是一个杜撰的故事
@@8qk67acq5 Both. Most region-specific saints in Christianity originated as remnant of older belief systems, not unlike the region-specific Chinese deities. Actually they went through similar process of syncretization.
Thank you Katherine for being so honest and frank about your separation from Wei. Good that you have clarified this as it was in our mind what happened ! Trust that you will move on and be a very successful youtuber. I am from Malaysia and is an avid viewer of your channel.
i really love this channel because Katty goes to everywhere in China but not only the "big rich cities" ^^ in fact, rural life has been a trend for the young generation in China because they want to escape from the stress :P
This felt like a documentary of years past by in China. 700 hundred years, I might add. Great job 👏
As a Chinese, I feel like this is also so valuable for me and Chinese history and culture. Helps imagine how people used to live before modernization. Great job!
If you believe China is a peaceful and progressive country, raise your hand ✋👌🙋
Raising 2 hands.
No doubt👏👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿
For the people, yes, for the CCP, it becomes a Nazi party.
怎么天天有你
Dude I swear I've seen you posting this line under every single Cyrus Jessen video, and now you're here. Will you please stop? This is kind of creepy.
繁华的城市千篇一律，孤独的村落别具一格。非常感谢阳离子带我们看到每个小地方不一样的风景！
回不去的村庄。
Most native Chinese wouldn't have seen this place themselves if it's not for your adventuresome mind. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Another great video Kate, this is the rural China I like to see. The scenery is beautiful and peaceful , an ideal place to retire. Well edited and I am hoping for more. Thanks for showing the rural village of China, which is disappearing fast.
Jd..., People in China want to live like Americans. It's referred to as progress.
No, we don’t. We are Chinese, we don’t want to be like Americans
congrats on 100k subs. I love this channel because of your down to earth personality
Wow!! What a wonderful scenery, especially the bridge building over the pristine river.
Such a good experience for you..
Wow! That semi-abandoned village would be great for like a holiday getaway though some of the authenticity may disappear if that happens...
They were trying to go that route actually but it’s just too in-the-middle-of-nowhere to attract enough people and it’s kind of a niche destination, it’s great if you love urbex 😂
@@kats_journey_east getting out into the countryside is what I love, when visiting other countries, I would love walking the hills there, is there thriving tourism in rural areas, I was lead to believe it's harder to find accommodation for foreign tourist
So so beautiful, the place is awesome.
one of the best vlogs from Cathy!
God bless you, Katherine. You don't look as cheerful. I am sure you will find happiness soon.
Thank you for your videos. Your channel is one of my favourites.
Take care.
I am super impressed that, for such a remote village, the road is paved into it!
That is what so called dictator has forced us to do.
Really love your channel more and more. I could feel your humor, passion for life, love for nature and people. Love your videos so much!❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉
真的可以啊！Totally breathtaking, the scenery!👌👍👏
It's very thoughtful that concrete houses down below 'clad' the walls with mud to match / harmonise with those historic houses up the hill . And the scenery just so calming.
Katherine, your greatest mission in life is trying to bridge the gap and divide between China and the US. Your work portends to peace. God bless you forever!
Yes, Kat's channel should be mandatory viewing from schools to the White House.
What a fascinating mushroom man! I will defiantly try eating (mountain) mouse when I go back to China this summer. Everything I ate when I lived there eight years ago was delicious! Thanks for the village tour.
广西这边吃竹鼠，不吃其他老鼠，山鼠也不吃。竹鼠只吃竹子，所以感觉比较干净。在八十年代之前，比较贫穷，有吃田鼠的，后来富裕了就不吃了。不过肯定不是家鼠。家鼠太脏了。
What a beautiful place! And fancy knowing that many generations of your family without recourse to genealogy.
Yet another enjoyable vlog. Thank you Kat! Looking forward for your upcoming ones.
Best wishes!!
U are simply marvelous. She be an ambassador in promoting better understanding n appreciation of culture n China to the west. Love to watch your videos n I NEVER MISSED ANY. Keep it up n Tk U so much.
Always excited to see your uploads! So happy to see more of china through your lenses.
That covered bridge is amazing!
love your videos showing the real China. Your Mandarin diction is perfect
She speaks better chinese than a lot of Chinese..
What is real China? You mean the beautiful rural China. So the amazing metropolis cities like Shanghai, Guangdong, Shenzhen are not real China.
@@gwent5914it’s western expectation of a poor, remote, rundown China.
中国竟然还有这样的世外桃源 谢谢阳离子带我见世面
I don't think anyone could ever imagine a sequence of a drone flying away from Chinese Village and American grassroot music playing in the background. Truly the best of both worlds. Great fusion! Who is singing?
I love the scenery, and I love how they try to keep the old style alive.
Yo must be loving your job a lot! You must loving your life so much! It is so meaningful just watching your videos!
8:26 Wow!! 🐟🐟Thanks for the awesome vid! 👍
Dayum his got rich family history that goes back millenias lol.. If we calculate each generation 20 - 25 years X 109 generations, that's more than 2 thousand years lol
Holy crap! The drone shot piercing down thorough cloud cover felt like you were piloting your own plane sensation. I was pondering how much insulation the self built hut offers then charcoal stove question came into view, better than dying from CO poisoning, hahaha. The dirthouse life on offer is too primitive.
I don't know if this village is in close proximity to Fujian province, their accent or lack of it in mandarin surprised me. I understood their mandarin pronunciations clearly much better than incomprehensible beijingers drawls.
Speaking of; Is your drawl Virginian? or a cold you were getting over.😉 I can differentiate Californians to their surprise.
The so called japanese covered bridge in Hoi Ann is noticeably similar aesthetically to your featured covered bridge. Another surprise.
It is super close to fujian , I was very tempted to bring my bike down there and make a bike tour out of it but I’ve been too busy with work lately LOL . It offers very little insulation but you also won’t get CO poisoning because of the huge gaps in the wall 😂
@@kats_journey_east You appeared more rested and back on track of urbexing genre and unusual sorties. Keep on riding.😜
Very nice trip! The village is sufficiently further away from major urban centers to preserve the original vibe.
Wow, the beatiful lady Yang Li Zi's mandarin has shocked me, because her Chinese speaking does not have any accent carved with foriegner normally.
By the way, you speak excellent English as well, and I cannot guess where you are from without your original accent. Thanks for your video which are very one of a kind.
I love mushrooms so every time I get dried mushrooms at a Chinese grocery store I will be thinking about Mr. Wu thanks to your documentary about him in the mountains. I have petted pet mice before at pet stores so don’t think I would eat mice but these people are very resourceful and I can’t believe the high price of mountain mice. Love the camera work and the drone footage! Looks like a professional documentary!
(⊙o⊙)哇哦，记得10年前自驾去过两次庆元，高速下来翻山越岭的，全是回忆
I was interested in your description of the old buildings as "dirt" houses. Some mixture of earth/clay, animal dung and straw has been used in every part of the world in the past and provides great insulation. Rainwater has to be kept off the walls, though, or the whole structure falls apart.
I lived in such a house in Devon, England, where the "dirt" is called cob and the roof was traditionally thatch. Every village has some, which date back up to 500 or 600 years, and very pretty they look.
Congrats
100,000 followers is awesome, cathy
Keep it up!
Lovely video Katherine! Beautiful commentary. Your expression after tasting the egg wine was hilarious!
You are really having quite the adventure. Your channel name can’t be more appropriate.
Madam Love your vlogs, from Faisalabad, Pakistan.❤❤❤
Qingyuan is very close to my hometown, I’m so happy to hear people’s accent that I used to use when I was a kid.😊
Hi Katherine, I'm a KIWI living in Qingyuan with my Chinese Wife and wouldn't have it any other way, love the people, countryside, and the food, I consider myself extremely lucky 🙏🙏🙏
Katherine thank you for this travel in time. ❤ It was amazing. And as always people you meet are so nice.
Hi, Katherine. Good to watch your new video. 小王总真的离开了吗？
Great video and wonderful place. Congrats for 100k
That egg drop soup reminds me of the scene in the first American pie where the guy finishes his man chowder in a beer glass and Stiffler chugs it
ooh nothing wrong with rural mountain mouse, definitely cleaner then sewage city mouse/rats
A beautiful girl in a special place❤ Are those mushrooms called ‘靈芝’? Precious and rare mushrooms with a lot of medical implications.
Nice video!, these mountains are really beautiful and the houses in the village are really Authentic, I'd love to film these in the future. Congratulations on your 100k subs!
Your videos are so amazing, if I could I would join at once! 🥳
Are you divorced from your Chongqing husband?
Great channel. My favourite.
Beautiful views and lovely music Katherine Thanks.
如能把这村庄改造，成为度假别墅区，会很美。可以把一些房屋拆掉，打出一条主路，开出一片场地。把几家房屋拼成一座座别墅和民宿。在村口建日用品商铺，在几处观景点开设餐馆，茶馆和咖啡厅，美绝了。
The mouse in the mountain are different from city mouse as they often don't carry viruses and diseases.
Congrats on the 100K
With regard to the "guest" featured on todays Vlogg .....
The rats they eat is different from home rats that eats garbage. The rats in the field eat only crops and is a different species that can be eaten.
Did you think of becoming a doctor given your interest in science?
中南半岛 自泰国以北在乡村地区有不少人都吃老鼠。
This vlog really reminds me of a chinese drama called Minning town. And usually when people in that rural village if they don't relocate to the city but build a sturdy better house than the old one, local govt will subsidized the house.
Intersting job assignment you have got!😍
在福建的内陆山区和视频里的环境接近，其中闽西也有吃田里老鼠和竹林老鼠的传统。
因为这些地方山地纵横，建国前，连铁路都没有，千古不争之地。不适合种植粮食，缺乏蛋白质。直到万历年，从菲律宾引进番薯，才有效解决荒年问题。
现在到这些地方，一年四季水果、山珍、漂流、探洞...可以玩的东西太多了。而且基本每个城市都通了高铁。
目前正在建设纵横几千公里的绿道，跟着几千年形成的官道去远足，道路网络覆盖整个南方。
Katherine, 你喝过北京的豆汁吗？那才真的难喝！蛋酒其实挺好喝的，你可以仔细体会一下，它就是带点酒味的饮料，对身体很好的。这个村庄真的好美，废弃有点可惜，随着城市化发展，中国很多这样的乡村被荒芜了。
天啊！你到了我的老家！❤
Super video and thanks for the vicarious experience, specially the egg drop wine.
😁又见识了很多人文习俗。Katherine的视频还是一如既往地好看。
I love your video and characters, thks!👍👍👍
28th generation, holy crap!
If you enjoyed this video, raise your hand to show 😺ion your undying support ✋👍🙋
Thanks🌟
@@kats_journey_east you're welcome
✋
就像坐了时光穿梭机回到了一百年前的样子，真的很神奇
哇，景色真的好棒啊
我在欧洲，景色特别精致，但是呆久了会发现缺少一种荒凉和粗犷、原始的美，一切整整齐齐、规划设计好的。其实粗犷、原始也是一种美
Mostly People live in a remote area were move to city.😊
I love China, but I will never eat mice.
mice?I think it's banboo rats~~
What a beautiful village and scenery. 700 year history…Wow! This is an Eastern version of some near abandoned villages in Italy. I do hope some of these villages get preserved. I love the details that you’ve captured - the woven hat and cloak hanging on the wall, the kitchen, the alters, slogans on the walls, the outhouse bathroom, etc). These old ways of living, as hard as they were, are a testament to the resilience and perseverance of the people who lived there. I love that you have such an incredibly open mind! You are willing to deep diving and try the local cuisine and delicacies, like rat. Maybe it’s like rabbit or Guinea pig?!? I thoroughly enjoyed watching this village tour. Well done! ❤👍👍
As a Chinese i can’t accept of eating mouse
If American imperialism is like Catherine, how can it possibly become the enemy of the Chinese people? Thank you for your video, which introduces the real China. Chinese people may not have been to many places you go. But you showed healthy and beautiful Chinese villages, warm and simple Chinese people. Thanks.美帝国主义如果都和凯瑟琳一样，怎么可能成为中国人民的敌人呢。谢谢你的视频，介绍真实的中国。你去的很多地方中国人都未必去过。但是你展现了健康美丽的中国村庄，热情朴实的中国人民。谢谢。
The face you had made is priceless...😁.
No more egg wine...
That abandoned village is, as NZer say, out in the wop wops. However, I saw a well built road leading to it, and there is electricity supply to door. Incredible. This piggy back ride opportunity for a video like this is just wonderful. There is no other ways we viewers can see this sort of things elsewhere. Thanks a lot mate.
Out in the wop wops, omg, I love that 😂😅 what a cute phrase
what company are you working for that allows you to continue vblog?
Green Zhejiang
Very beautiful place. This year I plan to go there to photograph the starry sky.
That cloudy drone shot.. *Chef's kiss*
What the hell, Katherine!! You're an incredible person -- WOW...just about everything I'd dreamed of for myself (though not in China, LOL) when I was young...so good to see your generation being so open-minded and outgoing!
I had been to qingyuan, mountian long and winding road, mushroom heaven
前半段好多荒野求生技能，以為在看貝爺😂
China is blessed with all the natural environments found elsewhere in the world, ranging from Arctic weather in the north to tropical weather in the south. It has breath-taking sceneries of deserts, vast plains, mountains, valleys, rivers, temperate forests and tropical rain forests. There is a living environment to suit everyone's taste. Why would anyone wish to emigrate abroad when they could find their ideal environment in China? The grass is definitely not greener on the other side.
Then you have to ask the Chinese Communist Party.
@@dairy77 When you go abroad and suffer discrimination, abuse and racism, don't complain.
I am one of many living in the West is going to move to China soon.
@@dairy77 No such entity as the Chinese Communist Party. There is the Communist Party of China. Would you call the USA, United America States?
因为生活所迫吧，每个人都在努力生活，就像美国的自然风光也有很多，但是也很难全部感受，阳离子的视频地方连我们都很难见到
China is a beautiful country, but the western govt don't seem to like it. 🤷♂
can't compete with those people. they love to eat HAMSTERS竹鼠. ohh well , Ozie bushman eat snails .
Kathy please keep up with your great work! This remind me so much of my father's hometown, so organic so beautiful.
Beautiful 🎉 hello China❤
