Oh~love it very much, thanks for recording so many sweet monuments, making me feel like we’re there now, so real, missing traveling everywhere as well🙁
The great news is dongxing is constructing high speed train system now connecting with nanning and fangchengang north , will achieved next year in 2021, so in future travling to dongxing is much convenient and easy . :))
I read from news that there will be a highspeed railway from Dongxing to Fangchenggang built soon completed in 2021. I am trying to learn some basic Chinese words for my first cross border trip to China after covid.
Fangdong Railway is planed to put into operation in the end of 2021, 200km/h, National Railway I level, Two-Line electrification, Passenger and cargo mix intercity railway, not an highspeed railway
I am from Kolkata, India. I crossed the border on 10 October, 2023 from Mon Cai to DongXingh. It was very crowded and almost an hour to cross the border.
@@curiousindian2712 No. Since I am an Indian Citizen with Indian Nationality I have to apply and got my China Visa before I start my journey from Kolkata. I went to Vietnam first, stayed there for a week and then crossed the land border to enter China. On entering China, the immigration officer stamped my China Visa. That's it.
Dong Xing has changed considerably since I was last there in 2004. The main part of the bridge, the river and the bus parking lot look much the same but the sheer volume of tourism has changed this small village. 20 years ago the bus would go through a PLA checkpoint about 45 minutes outside of town. On the other side of the Beilun river there were regular NVA motorcycle patrols. I enjoyed because back then I could set off fireworks in the street. The Australian SBS network had a program entitled "Global Village" which showed night vision of the sanpans that use to cross the river at night. A different world back then.
This was over a year ago so it’s probably completely different now. Id imagine there are also probably more recently filmed videos. Thanks for watching
Hi Jacoby! I really enjoy watching your videos! You have the needed sophisticated attitude, a gentlemanly refreshing personality that's MUCH appreciated!!! I've been to Nanning city, and Guilin mountains twice,, once in '06, and again in '07! I fell in love with a really lovely lady, Shen YanXia, and still deeply and happily in ~Love~ with Xia!!!! Thanks for your efforts to make some good entertainment and stirring up many many wonderful memories!!!! Cheers and God bless!!!! Sonny Cannon
Hi yeah I’ve been traveling in China for many years and haven’t had any serious problems. The language barrier can be a bit tricky, but people have always been friendly and helpful. Thanks for watching.
@@JacobysJourneys that was what I was asking. You reply to me made it seem like this journey is possible after covid but I believe there is no chance of a tourist walking through immigration at mongcai and if they do allow it, foreigner is sure to be quarantined on the other side of bridge.
do we need the other country visa just to be in between( the two security buildings)?, did you have a vietnamese visa when you crossed the border? Amazing video!
I’m not sure, if you leave china the only place you can go is to Vietnam 😂 So you’d have to just turn around and return to China or vise versa if you didn’t have the other passport. Yeah i had vidas for both countries. Thanks for watching!
interesting video! Thanks. Would you (or one of the readers here) know if it is possible to get a visa-on-arrival for Vietnam at this border crossing? I'm planning a bicycle tour and consider going south after touring in China. Thanks.
Fred Culver Hey, I’m not sure. I’m currently in the US so I’m not sure what the policies are now with traveling into China for each country. Thanks for watching!
@@JacobysJourneys yes. I left in February and was horrified to see nobody taking it seriously in usa and Canada. I went back to China and was the final foreigner to be admitted in Chengdu! I'm a resident now.
I always have a visa before going to Vietnam, like most countries. I don’t think they issue visas on arrival. It also probably depends what passport you have, so you would need to research that.

Heikki Nojonen Hey thanks so much! I have many travel videos in China 😊
This is a nice video, I never tried this trip myself yet, long time no see my friend, hope we can meet again sometimes soon.
Nothing gets you going in the morning like the TroLoLo man singing.
Nice travel info

Oh nice! Yeah I’ve heard they were building one. I hope you can try it and have a nice trip!

This was over a year ago so it’s probably completely different now. Id imagine there are also probably more recently filmed videos. Thanks for watching
I’m from Vietnam and I might do the exact opposite by traveling to Nanning from Mong Cai!
Nice! Travel safe! 👍
awesome video! I was wondering is this border still open?
Thanks! I’ve heard it is but I’m sure their rules are different now. Thanks for watching!

James Nelson Haha I’ll let her know! Thanks! I have a couple hundred videos already on my channel! 😂

Hey @jacoby, no new video since last 2 months? When can we expect?
wow how i wish to go there someday.
Awesome 🤩
Yeah an interesting way to enter Vietnam haha
Is it safe to travel backpacking in China? Btw the fruit juice 10RMB (equivalent to MYR 6.39) is actually cheap!!

Hi Joacoby, Is this a new video? Aren't there any lockdwns or restrictions?
awaknis1635 Hi, this was filmed before the lockdowns began. Thanks for watching!

@@JacobysJourneys 😂👍. Thanks
This building is open from 8am to 9pm, make sure you come between those times. Right, sincere suggestion: don't come at midnight.
Your videos are more informative
Thanks! Thanks for watching!
interesting video! Thanks.
Would you (or one of the readers here) know if it is possible to get a visa-on-arrival for Vietnam at this border crossing? I'm planning a bicycle tour and consider going south after touring in China.
Thanks.
China seems to be a developed country, all places are lit at night. It seems to be so clean as well. Vietnam seems poorer. Is it?
so nice
Hey thanks so much, thanks for watching!
Will they let you back into China now? As far as I know it's a one way trip for foreigners at the moment.
Fred Culver Hey, I’m not sure. I’m currently in the US so I’m not sure what the policies are now with traveling into China for each country. Thanks for watching!
@@JacobysJourneys stay safe. I found your channel through Kirk and enjoy your videos.
Fred Culver Thanks you too! Oh nice! Are you in China?
@@JacobysJourneys yes. I left in February and was horrified to see nobody taking it seriously in usa and Canada. I went back to China and was the final foreigner to be admitted in Chengdu! I'm a resident now.
Fred Culver Oh wow, glad you made it back safe!
If I am in Vietnam border should I pay money and passport to walk in visit China border
❤️
Thanks for watching!
What about visa and passport stamping .do they give visa at that building on arrival
I always have a visa before going to Vietnam, like most countries. I don’t think they issue visas on arrival. It also probably depends what passport you have, so you would need to research that.
Could I cross the border on tourist visa from Vietnam to China ?
Sorry I’m not sure what you mean. But to enter China anywhere, you need a Chinese visa before arriving.
Wo wo wo..
Sorry, I’m not sure what Wo wo wo means.
@@JacobysJourneys dude its an american expressions.. your video was amazing
@@lonelydude8392 oh do you mean whoa ? Thanks! It’s definitely an interesting place to explore. Thanks for watching!
3:15 the man asked you to buckle up your seatbelt. but you didn't
Look again, I’m already buckled in my seat. I always do.
@@JacobysJourneys ah..sorry
@@zim4612 no problem. It was a fast shot. Thanks for watching!
dam..when they go to the war with each other...that border line will be bloody ..
Your girlfriend is Vietnamese ??? 🤔
LM BD Hi, She’s from China. Thanks for watching!
