Great videos, Katherine. You are the best ambassador of the US, representing the good side of your country at the same time attracting the interest of local people. Keep up the good work. Wish you the best
She certainly doesn't represent the US. The representation of the US are the likes of Anna Coulter, Vivek Shawshamee, Nikki Hayley, Nancy Pelosy, Macro Rubio, Mike Pompeo, and the entire cabinet of AIPAC.
Love how the kid just share ice cream with a stranger. He has no mind of hygiene, scamming, etc. He simply thinks of sharing. He must grow up in a safe and friendly neighborhood where filled with love ❤️
Should is an entitled word. The brutal reality is censored down by the media ,they create these illusions that you are safe, these false senses of security . Peace needs to be earned , never expected peace to be hand over by others,it will not be an meaningful peace. Truth lies on the edge of your sword. Justice exists within the range of your cannon. A wise man
12:16 ❤ It literally put tears in my eyes to see small kids having fun in such a loving and safe occasion. Sad that some kids in this world are threatened by war.
Xinjiang is such a beautiful part of Western China. It is such a successful integration of Chinese and Middle Eastern cultures. You can see it in their social gatherings as well as physical traits through inter-ethnic blending. Thanks for sharing this "in the trenches" view of real life in Xinjiang.
Well it’s actually not that middle-eastern😂but considering Central Asia and Middle East have so many communications and similar geographical features, I guess we can say in some extent this does show some middle eastern culture😂but it’s mainly mainly central asian culture
In China genocide is happening behind closed door. Ask children if they could speak Uyghur language in schools. The answer is no! Ask Eysajan if he could grow long beard, the answer is no! Ask if they could pray the answer is no! All those women without scarf become scarless last couple of years. Do you think CCP will have the concentration camps right in the middle of the bazar - market, for the people to see?
Thank you K for opening the curtain of the Uyghurs. The image expressed here is quite different by the news media and government. By exposing truth, you may change the mind of many people and possibly save lives. You are a hero.

Turpan Basin, also known as Gaochang Basin in ancient times, this magical area can produce the sweetest fruits in the world, which is a gift of nature, but here in the earthquake zone, there are several small earthquakes every year, so the buildings in Turpan are not tall.
The wedding culture is very similar to Persian like Iran Afghanistan Tajikistan That candy make from sugar in Persian calling Nabat but they mix with saffron . Using with tea very much better than the sugar . Katherine I feel like you are in love with old village in China . Old village old houses are my favorite I love so much
Hazari has a same genetic and cultural background. One is persecuted in Iran, Iraq and especially in Afghans and the world community fails to mention it just like Gaza Palestinian.
Uyghurs are a mix of Persians (Tajiks, Tuhuoluos), Han Chinese, and Mongolians. Han Chinese paternal genes account for 21%. Mongolians, Turks, Khitans, and Uighurs account for 6.1%. The other 60% are from Persia. So the wedding customs should be similar to those of Persia and Tajiks.
Yes, Uyghurs derive from a nomadic that lived in the region of today's Russia's Baikal River. That means they have a Middle Asia origin rather than the so-called Turkish one.
Thanks Kat for sharing the festive wedding in Turpan. This brought back so many childhood memories, especially the music by those grandpas. 😊I had never been to a Uyghur wedding but we can all remember the music played on the back of a truck (that had not changed) coming and going many blocks away! My hometown is Urumqi which is not far from Turpan but I had only visited Turpan once. It was during the hottest days of summer, I remembered it was 44C (110F) degrees. However, we mostly stayed under miles and miles of grape vines and the stream of irrigation provided by Qanat (坎儿井）kept us cool. Turpan is a special place to visit no matter the season, if you know where to look. (BTW, those grandpas were probably gossiping about Aysajan and you.😅 That habit probably transcends cultures and countries.) Can’t wait for your next Xinjing VLog! (Maybe Ili 伊犁？）❤
This duo is absolutely comedy gold! Very much enjoyed the interactions and culture. also assyajan’s dichotomy between professional and being a goofball is really good haha. What a wholesome delight of a video
Thank you for sharing the lovely video❤. Germany mainstream has been 20 years saying Genocide in Xinjiang, thousands of Ughur people have been killed and locked up and fored them to work. What i see is Xinjiang is so beautiful with rich culture.
Not only is there no forced labor in Xinjiang, on the contrary, 20 years ago, in the cotton picking season in Xinjiang, due to the small population in Xinjiang and the lack of local manpower, many inland farmers went to Xinjiang to pick cotton and work for the Uygur people.Nowadays, it is basically a machine operation, and the Western media fabricates facts, which is simply despicable and has no bottom line，
The second wedding is just so informative and halarious. 1. What a beautiful couple! 2. When Assyajan said the Uyghur wedding lasts 2 days, I instantly associated it to one of the episodes of Hot in Cleveland talking about Indian wedding, "they last 7 days and spend a fortune" 3. never thought a village restaurant in Turpan has such a huge LCD screen...
There are 56 ethnic groups in China, 55 of which are ethnic minorities. The Chinese government gives many preferential treatments to the 55 ethnic minorities. For example, they can go to school for free for 3 more years than the Han people（12 years or even 15 years for minorities, Han people only have 9 years free education ）, and it is easier for them to go to good universities (even if their grades are not so good). The government also helps people in poor areas build houses for free and distributes various electrical appliances to them for free.
I've always known you were brave but to do a vlog for Xinjiang is another level. Your ex was a fool for letting you go and I hope you continue to find joy in life.
@@vestasharp6861 I think he broke one of his teeth trying to gnaw on some dried up food item in Kashgar or Tashkurgan and also mentioned how Xinjiang girls were so attractive. Whatever it was it was a signal.
@@chintham2861my wife knows there are pretty girls in Xinjiang and Sichuan and enjoy looking at them too and encourages me to have free look too. Nothing wrong with looking.
The top Chinese Drama actress is Dilraba Dilmurat (Dil in Hindi means heart and Dilruba in Hindi means heart stealer) (Dilmurat means heart desire, murat means desire). Dilraba Dilmurat is Uyghur and the best looking actress in China. She appeared in many CD TV series.
@@ChichiShu Elvis Presley was a box office star. My uncle took me (I was a kid about 10 or 11) and my brother to see a movie Loving You with Lizabeth Scott and Wendel Corey. When Elvis appeared in blue jeans on stage to sing Love Me Tender all the girls screamed. I didn't understand it at all as he didn't seem so special to me. My uncle also took us to see Bill Haley and All Around the Clock. I thought those rockers were crazy shaking and moving to music. But it introduced me to fast music. I was truly surprised. This was the first time rock and roll appeared in the world. Movies are made to make money. Any person with star power i.e. can capture an audience or fans with looks and talent can be a movie star. People go to see Dilraba because she is beautiful. What more can one expect. There aren't too many people in China who are beautiful. Most Chinese are short and ugly just like me.
Speak for yourself, not all Chinese. Yu Shi ,Wu Lei, Xiao Zhan, Wei Daxun, Li Xian are all mesmerizingly good looking. You just sound like a pathetic loser@@chintham2861
Really like your positive attitude towards outside world. That is one of major reasons why Americans are still popular in the world no matter how politicians in US do to the rest of world.
You assembled "The -A Team" both your team mates are charming in their own ways. I like how you pull the rug under our feet, 1st day she has a kid and 2nd telling your friend he's an uncle. I saw the existential crisis in his eyes 😂 that was equal to seeing 10 chickens in your videos.🎉
Wedding crashing is always fun, and when done the right way. Thanks for showing the different cultures and how diverse China can be. Your videos are very enjoyable social study classes.
Except during the pandemic, hundreds of millions of people travel to Xinjiang every year. Leaders of Muslim countries around the world have visited Xinjiang, but they have not seen any massacres or concentration camps in Xinjiang.

1. Call the Brits, NOT the Americans for this segment of your complain 2. You can't force people, entity and geography to be part of you if they don't want to. They are different culture, and religion to greater China. I'd argue even the Japan and Korea are culturally more similar to greater China than Xinjiang. 3. Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao - Yes. All yours. Sorry ROC! Fact is fact
One KOL in Hongkong has organized tours to northern part of Xinjiang in the summer and southern part of Xinjiang in autumn etc. The scenery spectacular! Their visit also to one of the largest horses city as they reported that fine horses are important to the cavalry in the old days. They reported that horse auctions could fetch more than millions dollars a fine horse! Hope you can visit more of the cities in Xinjiang as each city has a bit of the characteristics!
Hi Katherine, gave us some beautiful bird's eye shots of the wedding.....you had a rare opportunity to witness such a beautiful event . Those berries you had were raspberries...usually very sweet and tasty....see you in the next.... from Europe.
Wow.. just wow! & I'm so happy to see your handsome, & gentleman companions again. Again, Thank you very much Katherine for sharing your lovely video's. As always watching this from: Seattle, Washington from USA with LOVE. ❤

Awesome video 阳离子！ Please go visit some more remote villages in other parts of Xinjiang since you speaks such great Chinese. Xinjiang is bigger than France, Spain and Germany combined. 1 trip is not enough.
Xinjiang is a beautiful place indeed. In addition to the scenery I liked two things in this short episode: 1. The cool berries, healthy and should be tasty, which passersby can pick up? 2. Your beautiful eyes.
Thanks for sharing us what's really there in Xinjiang! Nice to see people live happily there :) Comparing to what's happening in Gaza, we know what's the real meaning of genocide. And US and UK politicians not even calling what's happening in Gaza genocide. How ironic!

Yeah that one threw me LOL try that in the US and ppl will think ur a pervert, in XJ people seem to think it’s completely normal to have a bite of a random kid’s food 🤣🤣
Alas, the reunion with your Uyghur comrades! Such a fascinating culture. Any consideration to relocate to a rural community in Xinjiang some day? Never heard the ✂️ party term used🎉🎈 😁 nor realized the summer temperatures can reach 40c+ in this region.
Very joyful episode! I like it. For your information, Katherine, traditionally in the other rural area of China, wedding is also celebrated for three days. The difference is how it is celebrated.
Turpan is definitely my place. I love this kind of berries and grapes. What do we know about these archeological sites, guys? I bet the dances are not at random. There is a ceremony attached to them like : girls warm up, the couple dance, the male dance, female dance, bride and daughter in law dance etc.....is it true?
the one I showed for a moment in the video near the beginning is apparently 2000 years old. yes some of the dances have different purposes to them, like the one where the women dance in a circle around the bride, or the bride dances with her mother in law, or the bride and groom are tied together, etc. there was also lots of random dancing for fun
@@kats_journey_east 😮😮meaning you have to be fit to marry or attend an Uighur wedding, lol, and adapt to a 2000 years tradition. Holly Snoopy, I prefer to just eat.
Oh my god, I am super jealous. I wanted to go last year but all the HSR tickets were fully booked because it was everyone's first summer holiday since China opened up from their lockdown.
Love any wedding that involves a lot of dancing :) Han Chinese weddings are mostly about eating which is great but I wish we incorporate some dancing as well. Great video!
Thanks for this vid very interesting. East Asians \ Chinese-ish looks but music and dances are quite similar to central and South Asian...even Turkey. Well done silk road. Spreading the seeds of joy for centuries.
I see a lot of forced labor going on. They're forced to sing and dance and eat as much as they can! Jokes aside, you're one lucky woman. It's a privilege to witness the beautiful culture of the people there.

the West calls it genocide in peaceful Xinjiang, yet they couldn’t find genocide in 40k civilian deaths Gaza 😂
yep, It is US government and media's expertise to spread "truth" to fit their agenda and hides truth if it is inconvenient.
💯👏
When you know why they cant find genocide in gaza, you immediately realizes why they 'can' find genocide in Xinjiang
They don't want Americans to go to Xinjiang because they don't want their lies to be exposed.
What do you mean? Nothing happens in Gaza.
Amazing to hear a young guy talking about his childhood memory - we couldn't afford ice-cream - To realize how much life has changed for the better.
I was deeply touched by his confess. Such a sentimental guy!
Xinjiang will see more opportunities with belt and road promotion.
And in this economic and social transformation he’s able to experience it in his lifetime, simply amazing.
He said he could buy ice cream bars as a child, doesn't mean his family couldn't afford it.

One KOL in Hongkong has organized tours to northern part of Xinjiang in the summer and southern part of Xinjiang in autumn etc. The scenery spectacular! Their visit also to one of the largest horses city as they reported that fine horses are important to the cavalry in the old days. They reported that horse auctions could fetch more than millions dollars a fine horse! Hope you can visit more of the cities in Xinjiang as each city has a bit of the characteristics!
Hope to see some more of Xinjiang this summer and next year 😄 stay tuned
This eye-opening video has a marriage of reality with happiness! :D
Fascinating how preserved the language, culture and music is across almost 5,000 kilometers
在中国，我们尊重任何民族的文化，因为我们都是中国人
谢谢！
谢谢支持❤️
The beauty of its people, culture, and environment calls me to visit Xinjiang soon. Nice video as always, we learn from you without fake news.
Your guide sings beautifully. He's really the hope of the village.
吐鲁番盆地我去过俩次。8,9 🈷去比较理想。我是有当地的朋友做陪伴，维吾尔族年轻人，他们的普通话都很棒，除了一些年长的人，沟通交流方面确实有一些困难，。总之新疆是个美丽好地方，语言方面的互动或交流还重要，记得入乡随俗，动听的新疆维吾尔，融入哈萨克族歌曲的神韵会让人舒坦。
You're videos so interesting Katte from Indonesian
Hi Katherine, gave us some beautiful bird's eye shots of the wedding.....you had a rare opportunity to witness such a beautiful event . Those berries you had were raspberries...usually very sweet and tasty....see you in the next.... from Europe.
I think it's mulberries
They are actually mulberries.
Thanks for correcting. Some years ago, driving through the Pyrenees, we picked some from the roadside and they told me they were raspberries.
@@yuehanslam1593Raspberry is bigger but has bigger seeds inside.
Wow.. just wow! & I'm so happy to see your handsome, & gentleman companions again. Again, Thank you very much Katherine for sharing your lovely video's. As always watching this from: Seattle, Washington from USA with LOVE. ❤
fascinating ceremony thx good show
Very momentous event. Wish the New couple peace and happiness. I have not seen a video like this because you have to be invited. Kate lucked out.
Looking forward to your future Xinjiang videos!
What a lovely and fun video! Enjoy every minute of it. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work!
So intriguing and so different from what the MSM presents to the world.
Glad yiu are able to revisit Xinjiang.
Except during the pandemic, hundreds of millions of people travel to Xinjiang every year. Leaders of Muslim countries around the world have visited Xinjiang, but they have not seen any massacres or concentration camps in Xinjiang. Only media like BBC and CNN insist on claiming that there is genocide in Xinjiang, while the real genocide in Gaza is selectively ignored by Britain and the United States.
Awesome video 阳离子！ Please go visit some more remote villages in other parts of Xinjiang since you speaks such great Chinese. Xinjiang is bigger than France, Spain and Germany combined. 1 trip is not enough.
more Xinjiang coming up in a few weeks, stay tuned 😄
your personality is so fun and interesting, I wish there were more people like you
Love how all the cultures blended in harmony there.
Video yang sangat menarik. Saya menduga pak tua yang ada divideo ini mengatakan pada AJ bahwa Katherine cocok untuk jadi pacarnya.
Agree with you!
Another excellent video
Your Chinese is really good, awesome!
A beautiful place with friendly people. Life seems so colorful there 👍👍👍
Xinjiang is a beautiful place indeed. In addition to the scenery I liked two things in this short episode: 1. The cool berries, healthy and should be tasty, which passersby can pick up? 2. Your beautiful eyes.
Thanks for sharing us what's really there in Xinjiang! Nice to see people live happily there :) Comparing to what's happening in Gaza, we know what's the real meaning of genocide. And US and UK politicians not even calling what's happening in Gaza genocide. How ironic!

SUCH A GREAT AWSOME WAY TO RECORD LIFE
the guide is wiiiild ! lmao, him to kids : lemme taste that ice cream . lmao
Yeah that one threw me LOL try that in the US and ppl will think ur a pervert, in XJ people seem to think it’s completely normal to have a bite of a random kid’s food 🤣🤣
@@kats_journey_east Will this kind of thing be handled by the American police?
没想到他会真的去咬一口😂😂😂😂
it seems all of them knew how to dancing. amazing I will take my time to travel there one day.
9:15 I know what that grandpa said to him, without he speaking it out 😂😂😂
He must be told: boy you have a chance, get that girl besides you done.😂😂😂
Hope time froze and Kat has her love forever.
Grandpa was on point!
I don't think this guy fits her from a third perspective.
She need a man, not a boy after another.
But, we are not her, so, best wishes to her.
That old man told him to make some Eurasian babies with that pretty blond girl.😂
哈哈哈，一看他俩的表情就知道🤣
Alas, the reunion with your Uyghur comrades! Such a fascinating culture.
Any consideration to relocate to a rural community in Xinjiang some day?
Never heard the ✂️ party term used🎉🎈 😁 nor realized the summer temperatures can reach 40c+ in this region.
Beautiful video!
Thanks Katherine for a very interesting episode. The local variety of Mulberry look very delicious.
Very joyful episode! I like it. For your information, Katherine, traditionally in the other rural area of China, wedding is also celebrated for three days. The difference is how it is celebrated.
哈，去吐鲁番啦，我2019年去过那里，那里的葡萄好好吃哦，就是好热呀
❤what a beautiful pictures❤
What a lovely wedding❤! And the tour guide is adorable 😅
Turpan is definitely my place. I love this kind of berries and grapes. What do we know about these archeological sites, guys? I bet the dances are not at random. There is a ceremony attached to them like : girls warm up, the couple dance, the male dance, female dance, bride and daughter in law dance etc.....is it true?
the one I showed for a moment in the video near the beginning is apparently 2000 years old. yes some of the dances have different purposes to them, like the one where the women dance in a circle around the bride, or the bride dances with her mother in law, or the bride and groom are tied together, etc. there was also lots of random dancing for fun
@@kats_journey_east 😮😮meaning you have to be fit to marry or attend an Uighur wedding, lol, and adapt to a 2000 years tradition. Holly Snoopy, I prefer to just eat.
So Beautiful ,i so wish to see more. great culture. Great video. Thanks.
great video🎉🎉🎉 Katherine
Thank you for this lovely video. Always warms my heart. Hope you have a great journey!
How beautiful and what very kind people and children 🙂❤️
Oh my god, I am super jealous. I wanted to go last year but all the HSR tickets were fully booked because it was everyone's first summer holiday since China opened up from their lockdown.
暑假也想带着小孩去， 可惜离广西实在太远了。
Love any wedding that involves a lot of dancing :) Han Chinese weddings are mostly about eating which is great but I wish we incorporate some dancing as well. Great video!
Beautiful things from beautiful people and great joy on this special occasion
Thanks for this vid very interesting. East Asians \ Chinese-ish looks but music and dances are quite similar to central and South Asian...even Turkey. Well done silk road. Spreading the seeds of joy for centuries.
From what I've seen of Uyghur people, they always seem to be enjoying themselves no matter what they are doing.
As a Chinese, Turpan is the place I only read in novels and history textbooks. Thank you for showing us the true and beautiful Xinjiang.
感謝您客觀、真實地報導新疆，祝您旅途愉快！🎉🎉🎉
凯瑟琳，刚才还在看推特驻华大使伯恩斯的涉藏言论……上油管就看你上新疆了。对冲了😢
我有朋友在新疆喀什支教，隔阂还是有的，比如小朋友比较听本族老师的话，对汉族老师比较生分，自从毒教材爆出来开始推广普通话教学了。像吐鲁番这样的北疆城市还好，南疆的喀什和田相对封闭（少数民族占比高），我朋友在市区学校，小孩儿也比较皮，家长对教育的态度不如内地，考试个位数的很多……
因为相对封闭，所以之前的暴乱源头在南疆，看到小商贩的刀都上铁链心情很复杂。
这种婚礼看起来很可爱, 如果都是戴头巾的那种看着吓死人...
还需要时间，这才安定多少年
Weddings Xinjiang style, amazing! Thanks for sharing, Katherine! I have just noticed that the title of your program "阳离子東游記" 很有意思. It's so cool! 😊
another beautiful vlog from Xinjiang. Katherine is going to drive western media/news crazy!
Wow! such an amazing vibe, love to visit Xinjiang one day.
Don't grapes ripen in the Fall?
主打一个不见外~
Main them is "we're all brothers".
vibrant culture and music, reminding me of the Xinjiang movie I saw when I was in China
Happy life ❤❤
I see a lot of forced labor going on. They're forced to sing and dance and eat as much as they can!
Jokes aside, you're one lucky woman. It's a privilege to witness the beautiful culture of the people there.
Beautiful big mullberries!
凯瑟琳好久不见啦，希望你拍更多的视频，分享给我们
From your perspective, I can see different explorations from your observation. Good job.
