What a huge green screen, everything is 3D printed😂😂😂 I'm joking. Omg this Absolutely stunning😮
🤣
I would be even more surprised and proud of China's technology if all of these beautiful sceneries are fake.
他们还没有看到"洱海"那里才是大理真正的美景🎉
Choose one: 1.Magnificent landscape, 2.Spectacular CGI technology
顶你个肺！我演的是红烧肉，至今没有给我发工资
As a Chinese living in Canada, one thing I love about these videos is the showcase of the abundance of food options and food culture there in different locations. It makes me miss it so much! Glad you guys enjoy China❤
China has really turned around in terms of food in last few decades.
Thank you for bringing the beauty of Yunnan to the world's attention.
Thanks for your support ♥️🙏🏻
Personally, I think Dali is the most livable place in China. Life is convenient but not over-exploited, and the climate is warm and pleasant. A very unique microclimate is formed around Cangshan Lake and Erhai Lake.Culture is mixed and diverse, full of artistic flavor and enthusiasm for life.
I believe you are right. Great place
I’ve been traveling to Dali for 2 weeks and the price was so high 😂 compared to other cities
大理吃的东西比丽江好，因为气候湿润，食材丰富。
The ultraviolet rays in Dali during summer can burn people's skin, and the most livable place is still Guizhou. Because I have been to Dali, I slept on a stone for half an hour, and then an hour later my face turned red and started peeling😂
NONO,i think chengdu is the best place to live@@97202
I really enjoy watching the videos you make. China has many very, very beautiful landscapes. Welcome to China. The Chinese people are warm and hospitable, and we all like friends from afar.
多謝！
Your travel difficulty has already progressed from beginner level (Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Chengdu, Xi'an) to intermediate-level 😂. Moreover, your explorations are in-depth. I am truly impressed and curious to see where your limits will be in the future.
Tibet,I guess ❤❤
Rural areas in Shanxi Province, maybe
can consider Dunhuang
新疆，西藏，那是高等级😂😂
是的，高级的还在等着他们呢，比如西藏、新疆、甘肃、青海，开心的游玩吧！
I really like your videos, and you are very popular on Chinese RUclips(Bilibili) and TikTok, with more than 100 million views. Thank you for your objective evaluation of China, and welcome to China.
Confucius said: It's a pleasure to have friends coming from faraway.
Just talking about sincere, respectful and kind travelers like these two lovely person.And This is considered friendship in China.

The yellow dots are millet, and we believe that rice mixed with whole grains (corn, millet, sweet potatoes, yams, red beans, sorghum, peanuts, any other grain) is better for health. The idea is that the more diverse the foods you eat, the better for your health. The alcohol you bought is lychee flavor.
Your answer is so comprehensive.
Regarding millet, I'd like to supplement with some intriguing historical facts. In fact, during WW2, millet had a significant impact on China's economy.
Prior to 1945, China's legitimate government was the KMT, also known as the Republic of China. Amid the chaotic governance of the KMT, Japanese aggression, and the fragmentation of China into various warlord territories, different types of currencies were issued across the country, most of which were essentially worthless. These currencies were not tied to actual production or goods, and the political forces behind them would forcibly exchange them for gold and silver from the locals, essentially plundering their wealth.
Amidst this economic turmoil, the Communist Party of China (CPC) recognized the severity of China's economic problems. In their controlled areas, the CPC issued their own red currency and established trading stations. Rather than compelling civilians to surrender their gold and silver, they consistently provided goods at stable prices within these stations - among which, millet, the staple food in northern China, played a pivotal role. People could always use the red currency to purchase millet or other essential goods at a reasonable price, fostering confidence in the currency's value. In a sense, much like the "Oil-dollar," the CPC created a highly stable "Millet-dollar" that became the most trusted currency in China during that time. Its credibility was so strong that even the Japanese invaders had to resort to using this stable currency towards the end of the war.
Eventually, this red currency evolved into the currency we know today: the RMB or CNY.
@@sulivanchow3694 你说的，对我来说还是真是新的历史知识，谢谢。
Interesting, I thought it was pumpkin rice (南瓜饭)
People swarm you guys with selfie requests, because you are friendly, fair and just, these qualities are valued and respected in China. Keep it up!
indeed. not because these two are western foreigners
So true. Not because they are foreigners but because of their personalities. They are my top 3 travel bloggers .
Wow another city to put on my " to visit list" . This place looks amazing !! So nice to see people recognising you guys...fans basically
大理是个好地方，中国的文人都喜欢经常去大理休养。
Lijiang also is a must visit place in Dali.
BBC: You are not Fair...you are not using Grey Filters to shoot videos.
So funny 😂
😂😂😂
bbc依旧还是主流媒体（我们培养了这么多年的意识形态是你几个视频能反转的吗？）😂😂😂
😂😂😂
hahaha
Blessings from Hong Kong
Thanks for the video and bringing back a lot of my good memories about Dali❤ I traveled to Dali with my best friends after I graduated from college. We had a lot of fun there and tried a lot of poison mushroom, one of my friends said "no poison no delicious"😂
I am now living in US with my husband and two dogs, I watched this vlog with him and show off him those golden memories in my best years
Chinese people call it "poisonous", Westerners call it "psychedelic" 🤷♂ "Tomato Tomato" 😉
@qianyuliu-z4b 哈哈我是中国人，只是很久都没回国了。看到这个视频就想起来好多年前和大学同学去大理玩的时候
The yellow things on your rice could either be millet (小米, pronounced Xiao Mi like the phone brand) or corn meal / polenta (玉米碴). The corns in China are less sweet and watery but more starchy/sticky.

我英语不是很好，我周围的人现在好爱你们，又和善又客观，是真的用心在品中国。 刚到广州没吃到地道的当地菜的时候，真的看得我们很急，哈哈哈，我爸尤其喜欢，只要B站一转载了必看！哈哈哈，喜欢拍的很接地气，很实在~
他们b站也有号吗，叫什么呀
Excellent choice, next year we are visiting again and this time Dali is on our agenda for sure.
The most dedicated travel blogger,slowly experience everything you experience
❤❤❤
You are correct, they are the best - so calm and collect.
The house on the city wall is not called a temple, but a city tower, where soldiers were stationed to guard the city gate in ancient times.
I really like the way you couple talk. Slow but every word gentle, sometimes too much politeness 😃
He s wife is so buauteful!
Same to me
Calm good people. These are the type of people who would make great friends
I am glad that you are interacting with the local people to get some help. I wish that you would have done this earlier to make you life more enjoyable. Don't be shy because Chinese are friendly and willing to help.
I am Malaysian, the way you appreciate and describe the uniqueness of either food, tea or the scenic view just mesmerising audience. The eagerness you explored ancient town or even admired locals customs and manners are impressive. I think it is a place worth my visit too. 👍👍👍
Malaysian here too❤
Always great when new video from our two mad travellers appears on my feed, you two never disappoint show us your experiences, plus do make everybody Hungry 😀
What a sight , a small town and surrounded by mountains.
So that is the reason why i move from big city to DALI and settle down here😊😊，it really a pure place❤❤
Like this couple ,very friendly and honest people.
I love these videos. I am thankful for you both exploring China for what it is and showing that people are decent there.
watch your videos every day 🎉
I ‘ve been Dali 12 years ago .Beutiful town . Enjoy your trip.
Enjoy your trip in China❤
I was in Dali some 20 years ago. Never forget the pork there. As I understand from the locals, they fed their pigs with highland barley.
Yeah, unlike the Large White pig from England, those small black pigs are China's native. Less efficient in producing meat, but more flavour.
Good to see you two again!❤ Dali is worth staying for at least one week. The landscape around the Erhai Lake and Cang Mountain is very beautiful.
我有一张网上的洱海鸡窝咖啡附近的照片，非常美的风景，要是我能有一间那附近的房子就好了
As a Chinese, I really love your videos and appreciate how brave and kind you are in sharing your genuine experiences in China❤. If you enjoy traveling in natural landscapes, Xinjiang would be a really lovely place to travel!!! The blue and clear lake, the dense forests, the running cows and sheep by little path, along with the snowy mountains, are just incredible... I have never seen how humans and nature can coexist so closely. But, I have to say, if you can't bear the burden of long-distance travel driving since Xinjiang is a huge province, which could probably take 4 to 5 hours each day, it is not recommended. Anyhow, welcome to China!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
As a Chinese lives in China for 20 years and in Australia for almost 8 years, I missed Yunnan and the food there the MOST. I came from Chengdu which also has a lot of amazing food but I have to say Yunnan is on another level. Make sure try cured pork rib hotpot（腊排骨火锅） if you are going to Lijiang. It is a kind of hotpot made with cured/smoked pork ribs, then you should order some local mushroom with it, and I am pretty sure that will make you remember it for the rest of your life 🤤.
腊排骨火锅 is ridiculously good!
你好, I suggest you can stay at an old inn in the ancient city，You'll fall in love with the style inside🎉，wood，Flowers, sunshine，actually，that is old style china house（江南別院），You will love there，believe me😊
That is a great recommendation. Very good comment. I will try one day - thank you
@@ChrisHereToday yes that lifestyle is amazingly slow and peaceful and beautiful, almost like living in an old painting.
Two Famous Travelers, you deserve the special Treat. Thanks for taking us along to 大理. Definitely visit 云南in future. Look forward to your next video
Dali is a city in Yunnan province 😉
I've noticed that Luke is getting more and more skilled at using chopsticks. I've been following your updates ever since you first came to China. China always has many surprises for you, so every time you feel like you've been to the best place or eaten the most delicious food, that feeling will soon be replaced by the next experience.
Welcome to China 🇨🇳, my friends❤❤❤
The beauty of those mountains as the backdrop of an ancient town in Yunnan will stay with me forever. Btw Yunnan is China's main coffee producing region and some of the specialty coffees there have very interesting flavor profiles and worth tasting for specialty coffee aficionados.
I am going to Yunnan also next month. 😊
welcome，You can also visit Jianshui and Shiping.
云南非常舒服，昆明是春城。不过云南昼夜温差有点大，记住带外衣有备无患，当然你也可以当地买，丽江的毛衣披肩那么好卖不是没原因的😆
这是一个令你终生难忘的一个地方
Same here, I go there every summer, it's just too hot where I am now (湖南). High-altitude places are good for spending the summer.
评论区的你们都来自哪里?你们都是中国人来评论的吗?年龄多大?从事什么职业?为什么我很少看到其他中国相关的RUclips视频带有偏见的评论?Where are you from in the comment section? Are you all Chinese commenting? How old are you? What is your occupation? Why do I rarely see biased comments on other China-related RUclips videos????
Hide Private Vegetables literally means “Private Cuisines Well Kept as Secrets”
private specialty cuisine
semantically, maybe : "Rare Secret Recipe"
Please keep the name, it's brilliant! If I ever go to Yunnan, I'll definitely go to 'Hide Private Vegetables'! 😂❤
中文母語者通常說：私房美食
Hidden Family Recipes Restaurant 😊
I guess they recognized you because your videos were translated and posted on Chinese TikTok, and a lot of viewers formed a consensus that you could be our friends. here are many RUclipsrs traveling in China at the same time, but you are the most popular among Chinese viewers. Because you have a good ability to accept, love to laugh, always find good aspect. China is big, I hope you will continue your journey of exploration in China, and I wish you happiness.
hope you update everyday!😍
Your videos give off a very unique and down-to-earth vibe. Watching your videos is like talking to two old friends I've known for a long time, which I highly cherish. Thanks, and enjoy your journey in China.
A fun thing to share with you guys is that Luke now officially gets his "eye-rolling certificate" in China😆We noticed that when Luke tastes something really good, he will roll his eyes. So when we see Luke's eye rolling, we know it's good😁
Really happy to see you guys enjoy every China' city you go.....watched all of them.
Old Town of Lijiang next, that is even more beautiful.
The thing to experience in Yunan is their unique Pu’er tea drinking culture. Yunnan is the Pu’er capital of the world. Pretty much all larger Pu’er tea shops in Dali offer free tea ceremony and tasting, where everyone, including both tourists and locals, all sit at a large, beautiful wood table, and the hosts keep bringing out new tea ‘cakes’ to brew and offer people to try, and that goes on all day. I visited Dali during rain season, so I spent hours a day at various tea shops in town, and there was never any pressure to buy, although I ended up getting a tea cake from the tea shop I was hanging out at most often. It’s a very special business model that I haven’t found in other parts of the world. Some of the Pu’er teas I tried were over a couple thousand USD per cake, something I would never tasted otherwise.
Enjoy the anicent Dali 🇨🇳❤️🩹💐
Naomi need a traditional Yunan dress photo shot. And Luke need to pay for that..
I went to Dali couple years ago. I think it takes professional gears/skills to capture the beauty of the landscape. The eye can see things more vivid and more impactful, on the video you cannot see the real beauty with all the senses. You can only experience it being there.
Nice, support you ❤
You guys are awesome I've been watching ur vlogs everyday 😊i love the warm smiles on your cheek.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The guy talking in his phone at 33:31 was one of my ex colleague in your video. We were coworkers about 13 years ago, but unfortunately lost in touch around 7 years ago, what are the odds? You never know what your videos will bring to people. Amazing, this episode will be the most impressive one.
Wow, what a beautiful life!
good good I LOVE HERE
I live in Dali. from the UK, live .at the foot of the mountains and yes they are beautiful and amazing .if you take the cable car up to the mountains, take a jacket as it is 3000 mts plus higher than you are now, so altitude will affect you and strangely enough., When you buy a ticket for the cable car, you get free entry into the actual film set, which is right opposite the cable car ticket office...Peace
u mean take a jacket
Cannot stop to watch the couple who sit behind you as they were planning to gift you the bottle of wine😆😆😆😆
I can see that they are true fans, but also showed good etiquette, offering a pot of wine to express love, but did not disturb their meal.
They were so friendly and amazing
Great！
I am your big fan and now I live here in Dali. I went back from France 1 months ago to work here as a French and English teacher.❤ And our private school is just 5min from Er-Hai lake on foot.
Dali, Yunnan is really beautiful. Thank you for taking me to visit Dali with my eyes.❤😊
The alcohol is made of grains. It’s a bit like Japanese sake.
Chinese food goes well with a bit of alcohol. As a matter of fact, most meats are cooked with cooking wine (also made from grains).
A great video that reminds me of memories from Yunnan ten years ago. The scenery is very beautiful and the cultural atmosphere is even better. It's suitable to stay for a month
31:12 should be millet, normally cooked with rice together
I think it is Corn Crumble
@@qtmuniao No it's not, we don't eat that with rice
love your videos❤
Thank you 🙏 ❤️❤️❤️
Dali is one of the best places for retirement 😂😂😂😂
That is what I hear. I am ready for that
Dali, my favorite place in the world!
❤❤❤ from Malaysia again
So glad to see you guys made it to Dali!! I've been all over China and it's the most beautiful place!
九寨溝不漂亮？
@@mrstang2511 when I went it was too crowded unfortunately but beautiful as well!
Thank you for doing what you do. People to people exchange and travel is what the world needs.
My wife if is from Yunnan, Yunnan, located in the southwestern part of China, is a province known for its diverse culture, rich history. I need to visit again
Dali is known as the City of Eternal Spring. Because of the combination of latitude and elevation the weather and vegetation seems like spring all year.
You guys are the nicest people that any country welcomes, so appreciative to local people, food and culture. Thank you for taking us to Dali.
Yunnan four seasons like spring, really comfortable😊 As a Chinese, thank u for ur video, which also let me see the beauty of Yunnan
I wanna go to yunnan! This place looks amazing !!
真正美的地方他们还没去。。
真正美的地方他们还没去。。
Yunnan is like a fairy tales 💕
There's an another branch of people once, who migrated from Yunnan China to North-East Indian, especially to Assam (famous for Tea, Petroleum, One Horned Rhinoceros, #Maidams) and settled here for centuries. Recently their mound burrial system of Ahom Kings & Queens and Nobles has got *The World Heritage Tag, UNESCO*
Do come and visit Assam, North-East Indian 🇮🇳
Yes...my favorite couple are in my favorite beautiful city ❤❤❤
Long time no see,!🤣
Yunnan outdoor UV exposure is so strong that locals like to wear hats and cover their arms❤❤
I think they just don’t want tan like most of asians.
Wow ! You two become
the celebrity of China wherever you go. 👍
❤️
A foreign friend took me on a Chinese trip to China, which was very interesting. Thank you !
OK! Naomi, it is time for you to get into a local dress with all that jazz! Do it! You will regret if you don’t!
You became celebrities there
I love when Luke eating delicious food and he rolling his eyes😂very classic. Love from 苏州❤
Hi Naomi & Luke: Thank you for taking all of your viewers to your travel journeys! What is the name of the hotel that you are staying in Dali? Thanks!
unbelievable scenery, incredible food and friendly people I can feel your genuine enjoyment in Dali. Cannot wait to see your next episode!
The white wine Naomi couldn't translate is litchi wine（荔枝酒）.Litchi is a lovely fruit from Guangdong, the name is from the way we picked in ancient time,荔枝 means cutting the branch，becasue litchi once get out of the branch, it will go bad very fast (less than 3 days). Litchi has red rough skin and white bright flesh. The flesh is super sweet and juicy. But for me, the fresh litchi has the best taste, the litchi flavor things always have some bad taste as litchi cann't be stored for too long.
I'm glad you went to Dali. If you have the energy to go out at night, it will be a very different experience. In addition, many young Chinese people have seen and liked your work through Chinese video apps, so you are indeed celebrities.❤
Dali is one of my favorite places in China. Many expats think so too as there is a lively community there. Something about that place above the Erhai Lake with the mountains all around and the ancient town and the markets. It's very progressive in the thinking of the people I met there, many spoke English. The Bai people share their beautiful traditions openly. I would happily return to Dali in a heartbeat.
Everyone knows once he roll the eyes means it’s tasty😂😂 And it’s so funny that they both got bit drunk after lunch, the flash on his face lmao😂😂
Two years ago, I made a 5-day travel plan for Yunnan and Dali was my first stop. Finally, I stayed here for four days😢
Yup, the yellow dots are from corn. The mixed rice is more tasty. And don't miss out on the chicken soup mushroom hotpot - 野生菌火锅，roast cheese with rose jam - 玫瑰烤乳扇， sticky rice noodles - 怕肉饵丝, and Xizhou pie - 喜洲粑粑。 After Dali‘s Bai culture, please also visit Lijiang (Naxi culture) and Shangri-La (Tibetan culture), and then head to the south to Weishan - 巍山 ancient town, Tengchong - 腾冲，, and Xishaungbanna (Dai culture) - 西双版纳。Yunnan is the most ethnically diverse province in China, comparable to Xinjiang.
You guys travelled more places in China than most Chinese do. Tks for video! Funny and detailed described!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻You two indeed become celebrities in China now.
Yunan ham is very popular throughout China.
Several years ago, people in 1st tier city like Beijing and Shanghai sold their apartment and bought a house in Dali and lived a relax life there.
Hello fromSaigon,VietNam❤
I like your attitude. You feel your journey with your heart, every detail, and your videos have given me great inspiration. We can face our life with a more pious mood and get along with our relatives and friends with a more gentle attitude.
You two are my favorite travel bloggers
Finally updated the video.
