- We spend the day touring around Fuzhou city and end up in the Ancient City area. With 2000 years of history this place was an interesting site to see. Come join Weifang and I on this little adventure.
In 2011 my first grandchild was born with a rare and complex genetic condition called Prader Willi Syndrome. This condition comes with many symptoms, the most prevalent being that she is plagued to feel hungry constantly. Although she is living a life of continued challenges associated with her condition, she is an amazing little girl who has and continues to face everyday with a smile and determination to do her best. My daughter Miranda has set up a fundraising page in support of the Foundation of Prader-Willi Research Canada whose mission is to eliminate the challenges of Prader Willi Syndrome through the advancement of Research. I would greatly appreciate if you would show them some support in their fundraising efforts. Your donations will help make a difference in my granddaughter Emelyn’s life. She is a special little girl.
Thank you! fundraise.fpwr.ca/goto/TeamEme...
every city seems so clean.
Yes, it actually is
And at last, this is what I am waiting... my ancestral homeland. Went back once, and plan to go back again after the pandemic. Thanks Gweilo 😊
FuZhou!!! My city!!!
Holy cow, my hometown, welcome to fuzhou
How could you leave for stupid west, I know it’s stupid, unfortunately live in bankrupt Britain?
You can keep your opinions to yourself.
Some people said 'CPC make China lose its culture'. Aren't they stupid, or blind. What are these towns built for. I would say because people have well-off lives and therefore we have more time to learn, enjoy and explore our culture
China is so beautiful and interesting. It's great when Kirk can cover the beautiful and interesting rather than politics. I do appreciate his down-to-earth perspective of 2000 years of history versus seeking out the local beer. One makes the other worthwhile. Thank you China TV for making this possible.
@Jon S I think it was out of appreciation that Kirk was getting back to his usual podcasts rather than venturing into boring politics.
That place is called 三坊七巷, Sanfang Qixiang (Three Lanes, Seven Alleys). It's a cool spot.
@1:19, look at the clean street, no litter, no graffiti, no beggar, no homeless, no security guards, no steel security doors. Without looking at the picture, you know I’m not referring to NYC, Chicago, LA, Phili, Camden, Baltimore, Cleveland, Oakland, Miami, St Louis, Atlanta,
@Jon S ::: your comment is typical of those blinded by anti China propaganda published by US corporate media and sponsored by the US government. They would rather have Americans live in the filthy, high crime, and drug infested cities than admit China has clean streets, low crime, and next to zero narcotic addiction problem.
This is a warm and sticky place. A lot of fun places around the ocean front.
Your in my home town. Sticky rice dumpling stuffed with meat is too die for.
I love Jin Bao Yin at Gulangyu Island.
Thank you for showing my ancestral land - the place where my grandfather emigrated from.
Wow - the land of my ancestors! Where my great great grandparents came from! 😍 It's BEAUTIFUL!
I love the Chinese they are so peaceful and just want to go on with their peaceful lives they are hardworking and aint busybodies and with such a long history I see they will bring good to the world
@@mcrand7887 that's not correct eg unifying taiwan will never be out of the plate for all chinese and China needs a CCP like gov that remembers China's history
@@ellashy6539 you mean the one that killed millions from starvation you know... "the great leap forward" history does not forget that mao was the worst mass murderer in history...
@Jon S you can go troll at other anti china channel for many China will do what it needs to do to get ahead anything that is not to your liking its CCP I had a good laugh
@@tdsrk well they do owe up to their mistakes I see nothing wrong and most important they are doing a great job now and I support China all the way
Taiwan is a country!
my grandfather came from fuzhou. i've never been there since we don't have blood relation there any more. sadly my grandfather also didn't managed to go back before he passed.
Nice to see that you are invited to visit different part of China and show it to us. Kirk, enjoy your trip.
@Jon S Um.. Disappointing you, I am not a CPC (nothing called CCP) member, so my comment is not posted by CPC. However, I don't deny that I support CPC because it does great job to improve the whole country. If you did not leave a hate comment about the CPC, I don't need to clarify my support to the Communist Party of China. Hope my stance would not make you furious 😌
@Jon S Uyghurs is one of largest ethnic groups in China. I say CPC has done a great job to the whole country. Of course the Uyghurs is included. In 1949, the life expectancy of people in Xinjiang was less than 40 years old. However, it's over 70 nowadays. The population of Uyghurs has doubled since 1949 too. I hope you can have a visit to Xinjiang and realize that the Western media is systematically telling a lie to bad mouth China.
My ancestors' home!
Food and beer - simple pleasures of life.
Ancient General. Qi has defeated the sea pirates 'Wo-Kou' and protect the land of Fujian from taken over. That pirates is said to be todays on of the native tribe in Japan. That has brought the 'Guan' Chinese burger and 9th day of liberation celebration for Fujian people.
Never been to Fuzhou. Thanks for walking us through this beautiful place.
Art represents the culture of a community and country.
My ancestor is from Fuzhou, what a nice beautiful place!
MY HOMETOWN CITY!
You know gweilo60, a bit of near history, but there was a time during the war and famine and corrupted government where a lot lot of young men of fuzhou and fuzhian had to run away to greener pastures for food and you will find them now in SEAsia especially Malaysia Thailand and Indonesia.... but we are still bound by the culture that never fades..... long live greater 中国
BTW, the fuzhou courtyard house is quite similar but smaller to the garden houses of Suzhou
Excuse me but u left out the obvious Singapore where millions of Fujian descendants are here.
@Jon S replying your comment on my comment.... "thank you for your nonsense but if I am a CCP man then you ARE CIA".... go live a life & have a 🍺
How long are you going to stay in Fuzhou? It’s my hometown and I am living in Fuzhou now. 😋
Invite Gweilo for a local beer, please. :D
Welcome to my hometown Guilao!!!!, I have watched a lot of your naning videos.
U r having a great time ....safe trip.
@Jon S this a computer generated comment. Pls Get the fk out of here.🤣
Welcome to my province. Will you visit Xiamen also?
My grandfather come from Fujian one day I am going back to visit his birth place.
I've been there! visited a friend in Fuzhou and walking around for two days
November is the best time to visit Fuzhou
Thank you for visiting my hometown, have fun 🤩
Welcome to my hometown Gweilao!!
You are my type of guy, the cold beer guy .yeah that's my Jayoe 😆
You should attend China Octoberfest if they have one and enjoy all the beers.
@Jon S seriously, you should get educated and get a proper job.
@Jon S see, I'm right. You've got only a college degree and earned only 4k. Better get proper education and better job that requires to use your brain if you've any.
Im so happy you explored fujianese culture. It’s very lesser known and there were many languages and religions that lived amounts each other through our history. If you like into the MinYue times it goes back further than 2000 years
Wow you have been to place.... haven't went home anyway where, waiting for normal travel will head to china
Fuzhou is the 1st place I have visited when I 1st came to China in around 2003.
Good Job and Support !
good video....more of this type of video Gweilo please
Hey Gweilo , it is my hometown. Hope you enjoy your stay.
... and everything else can wait, BEER first! 🐾
Welcome to my home town. I miss it so much!!!
The sticky rice cake just like our 糖不甩 in Guangzhou, mixed with sugar and ground peanut 😋
棒极了！支持你继续做下去
Steam sticky glutinous rice mixed with sugar and ground peanuts, yummy!
Where's the local food and beer?
Hope you will be making more video on this magnificent city and its peoples
@7:14, “ she’s hot and humid, today, guys. it’s 12 O’clock noon, probably about 32 degrees, and 80% humidity.” Deleted: time for an ice cold beer.
Thanks Gweilo for showing parts of my home town, brings back memories of my childhood although much of the scenaries are new and of developed areas of the city ( I think the ancient street or Gu jie were rebuilt) I’m an Australian citizen and wishing I’m can go back to visit when the pandemic is over. Thanks for sharing!
Welcome to my hometown Gweilo!
My hometown, omg 😱
I like this video....thansk.
Did you go to the museum under the Nanjing bridge. I recall it was the first bridge built
新店古城遗址公园 the Relic Park of Ancient Xiandian City .
Yea.，my hometown. I wanna go home now.
welcome to my hometown
Gweilo, will you be visiting the nearby Agricultural University too?
5:00 That sticky rice cake snack probably has the same texture as Japanese Mochi, and is made in a similar fashion.
fuuzhou was first place i visited in 2012 on my very first overseas trip , was last their in 2020 for 1 year, i cant say enough to the chinese people and the city of fuzhou of the wonderfull life exprience that you have given me,opened my eyes to many things about life that as a westerner i may have taken for granted, to chinese people and particularly fuzhous inhabitants thank you so much😊
Greetings from Egypt ❤ nice show man ❤ don’t get drunk 😂
Another 'cool' post Gweilo. Who's that black African dude? He must be a student in one of Fujian university.
Good video Gwello 60.
Really reminiscent
wow，我住在福州，玩得开心。
Foodzo, pretty accurate pronunciation

Welcome to my hometown

Hot time to visit Fuzhou…I mean that literally
I live in Nanning so hot is only relevant over 36C and 90% humidity

Gday GL60
🧡
👍👍
Great video. You make chronic alcoholism look good! Lol!
👍
You must try FoTiaoQiang
They speak fuqing dialect there?
you are very popular sir
gwailou changed name to hamsaplou
85.6k subs. Is youtube suppressing this channel?
I put out a video and it gets thousands of hits in the first couple hours and my sub count goes down. Then it creeps up after the views drop off so I assume they have a time period after a video goes live where they don't recognize subscribers hitting the button. It is the same with every video so...?
better then american cities
中國的少數民族（西藏，新疆，朝鲜，蒙古 . . . 等等） ，有大片的自治區，路牌，店號 . . . 全是雙語。 這在美國，加拿大 能看的到嗎？ 印地安文化只能在荒無人烟的保留區看到。
I only love watching Kirk eating and drinking beer. Looks a bit dry this video ... I bet Kirk must be thirsty throughout this filming.
Black guy wearing suit and tie in 33C weather???
Kirk, Fujian is the bone and Taiwan is the flesh. How did they get separated?
And for how long more? The healthy bone supports meaty flesh with no blood spilled is the China Dream
Quickly go and grab a bir. 🤣🤣🤣
The street that you walk in the old side of Fuzhou has been a residential place of the most influential people of China and is called Tree lane Seven Alleys, ruined by letting open McDonald, Kentucky, and Starbuck.
One of the most beautiful cities in China with ancient history and modern buildings,
BTW next to the central commercial area main street you will find the forbidden Catholic church open to the public every day
The real ancient city in Fujian is the nearby city Quanzhou where Marco Polo set his foot, where Shiah and Sunni Muslin ex-pats at war in the13 century.
That black dude doesn’t look very smart lol. Yea pretty much beating his dough.😂
What a rude thing to say when you don’t know anything about him
@@mykrt8541 easy man. How much do you know about me?
What??? No beer?? No food???
You been 'Oppressed' Gweilo!
Haagen das???
You being played by Germans!🤣🤣
Itch bin ein Berliner.
Fuzhou wall was completely demolished after ccp won the civil war. I was born and grew up there. Most what you showed are fake ancients, only some traditional houses there are really old.
