Why does the West not want its people to know about cities like Chongqing in China? While China’s building high-speed trains, others are still waiting for the bus that’s always late. At this rate, China will have space elevators before some countries fix their potholes! (You know which countries we’re talking about)
If the West showed off the progress China made, people in the West might start wondering where their taxes are going and why they are so technologically behind.

I'm writing my dissertation, and when I read literatures I find a interesting academic article. It compares some of the news about China and the United States in Africa, from Western media. The results of the study show that although the news about the United States in Africa is mainly related to military expansion, its image is skewed in a positive direction and few people question its behavior. China, on the other hand, is in the news in Africa mainly for economic cooperation, but is often portrayed as a negative collaborator and considered a “new type of colonialism”. One really has to marvel at the power of “propaganda” in the Western media.😂
That must be one of the fraudulent academic articles which have been illegitimately published with bribery because U.S. media doesn't cover African news.
Cherry blossoms are originally from xizang and they are Chinese tradition,. The Japanese did cultural appropriation and made it theirs completely disregarding its Chinese origin, just like bonzai, which is also from China, called Penjing. Japan stole many others culture things from China and never recognized it.

The morning tea culture and gardens there are very beautiful. What's more, the scenic spots there have elevators and artificial tricycles, which are friendly to the older people.

Love your video! Little interesting fact: Chongqing is one of the most GPS unfriendly cities in the world! It never finds out which street you are on:)
With one timezone, what the clock says is just an arbitrary number, civilization will adapt to sunlight, so I could see that instead of 9-5 they are on 11-7 workday
Cherry blossoms just like bonsai's, ramen and samurai swords were introduced to the Japan by the Chinese and Cherry blossoms actually originates from Tibet
Amazing how 30 million people can live so harmoniously, everyone just doing their own thing, enjoying life however they desire and no judging or discriminating. Chinese people are generally very friendly and respectful toward others. The West can learn a lot from them. 🥰
Cherry trees are native to China! They were introduced to Japan later along with many things, like agriculture, grains such as rice, Chinese characters, architecture, fabric and dress making, tea, chopsticks, soy sauce, soy paste, tofu, bonsai, koi fish, matcha, mochi, zen teaching …… too many more to name actually
You need to visit Yanjin City, it's the world's narrowest city as it is built along either side of the banks of a river in a deep valley. It looks amazing.
I love love love watching you explore Chongqing because that is my destination later this year. Do you know about the ex air raid shelters that have been repurposed into hotpot restaurants and art gallery or vintage bookstore? - again a testament that the government build things for the people to enjoy. I would love to see you visit one or two. Not many westerners know of them so if you video your reaction in one it would be so cool. Plus I suggest you visit a hot springs - there are so many within an hour of the city.
Chinese government is very smart and has unilaterally implemented a visa-free policy for many European countries this year. First of all, it will make it easier for European businessmen investing in China to travel to and from China. Secondly, it will attract many people from Western countries to travel to China and let them see the real China. Recently, I went to pick up a friend at Beijing Daxing International Airport and saw people from a European tour group in the robot parking lot. They were surprised to see how the robot helped people find parking spaces. . . How to deliver guest's car to parking space.
In the food street, what you think is bacon is actually pig intestines with scallions, and spicy yogurt is actually a very tender tofu with a taste similar to pudding

Before Chongqing became a municipality directly under the Central Government, it was a city under the jurisdiction of Sichuan Province like Chengdu. Now it has become a municipality directly under the central government, with the same administrative level as the province and under the direct management of the central government.
Thank you both for going to Chongqing! let alone China, save's me the hassle of traveling there myself, when in reality I wish I was there right now Great video guy's thank you xièxiè From NZ
The rail of Liziba Station is actually not contact or built upon the building, so the residents in the building would feel nothing. A few noise maybe, but no shaking or anything.
I recommend you guys try to get the highest building to view the whole City at night, because I have been there last month and I'm sure you guys will get a great surprise , wishing you having a great time.
There is always so much development because China fundamental priorty is economic development in which capital will be directed to area where they can raise the standard of living of the ppl, like parks, public facilities, infrastructure and then when completed add in more projects to make that original project even better and generating non stop revenue. It is continual process and not many countries can do it.China csn because every year, they produce so much expertise in such projects, like engineers, construction / urban development managers or personnel , architects, and plentiful of workers in all fields, China can also direct entire nation resources and utilise to whichever projects they want.
@@龚术that’s a lie. Chinese not as healthy as Europeans and life expectancy way off. Fast food all over China and 34th ranked for food standards. Much better but still average at best. Men in China are not exactly gladiator warriors are they.
Not all people dare to eat these foods, like you said, some people who like a challenge will try these foods, most of them are fried and really delicious
At 11：30, the item that looks like a radish is actually pig intestines on the outside and green onions inside. Some people really love this combination. At 14:10, that’s tofu pudding made from soybeans, which is found in both northern and southern China. In the south, they add sweet sauce, while in the north, they add salty sauce. But here in Chongqing, they add spicy sauce! You should give it a try, haha. The texture is like ice cream. In fact, I have previously spoken to residents living near Liziba Station, and they mentioned that the light rail doesn’t really bother them much, whether it’s the vibrations or the noise. The impact is almost negligible. The main issue now is that too many people come here to take photos! Haha. By the way, I’m really looking forward to your next video on Chongqing’s night scenes!
Need help on translation? Around 9:40 in the video, the lovely lady said to Libby "好漂亮, 好美, 美女!", meaning "So beautiful! So pretty! Pretty lady." Around 14:15, the white "yogurt" is tofu's cousin 豆腐脑 Dou Fu Nao. People in northern part of China eat it with salty source while people in the south part have it with sugar. BTW, were you there on May 1? That's the national holiday in China. Maybe that's why so many people were there.
I've only watched less than 3 minutes so far, but I got to comment first and finish the video after What an amazing looking city. Makes me a little jealous that I haven't had the opportunity to go there and see it for myself so far. Hopefully one day Btw, can't help but think what an awesome location those streets would be for a movie about a zombie outbreak. So many buildings for the character to run into, or for zombies to run out from
I really enjoy watching videos of the Mi Xue couple. They have been to more Chinese cities than I have (I am Chinese, from Guangzhou, and it has been raining continuously recently 😭)
6:53 This skyscraper looked exactly like this in July last year, and even at that time I was susprised no one was working on it, no workers no sound, I guess this project is related to Evergrand... But no worries someone will complete it, it's best property in chongqing 🌸
My family really likes your China series! After watching your videos, I found that your way of traveling is very suitable for self-driving tours in China, because China is very large. Foreigners with driver's licenses can apply for a Chinese temporary driver's license. You can ask the locals or find out online. It's very easy! I hope to see you start a video series of self-driving tours in China!🥰
I Was Actually Very Dissapointed to See China Follow Detroit in the 1990's... ...The Problem with "Automobiles" is they are "Useless" until You Can Reach your Destination and Deposit them in a Parking Lot!

Who ever Visited a City to "Tour" a Parking Lot!!!😢😂
You guys just roaming around from one city to another in China. But China has so much more to offer in the country side you guys are missing out big time! E.g Chengdu is a good starting point to explore nearby beautiful Leshan Giant Buddha, qingcheng and emei mountain. Xi'an is a good starting point to climb huashan mountain. In Beijing, you didn't visit Summer Palace either, which in my opinion, made you not complete your visit to those famous Chinese cities yet! (Those big and modern Chinese cities all look kind of similar after all, what makes them different from one to another is actually lies in the country side)
Love you couple and have fun in China. A advise for better taking metro or bus, if you two are using iPhone, actually there are lots of transit card of many different cities of China in iPhone Wallet, and many of those card can be used not just that city but actually almost all city in China (if it have a red&green "china T-union" logo on it), so you can add one and use it in the following days within whole China so that you no need to spend time to buy ticket everytime, either metro or bus. According my test, I recommend you to add Shanghai Transit Card, it can be recharge in credit card. And again, have a very good trip!
You guys look like two adventure game players. Now you enter the new game instance! Also do not forget your daily task, Mixue🎉❤ Enjoy your new game and new trip!
1:05:03 Apparently the people who live in the building can’t hear the train passing through. It was designed so there’s no noise issue. And apparently this train passing through building came to be because licenses for both the train and building were issued at the same time so they decided why not accommodate both. That’s cooperation.
Chongqing is indeed an amazing mega city second to none! By the way, the hawker in the street selling what you said Yogurt but actually is Soy-beancurd, Can be eaten with sugary syrub or soy-sauce with chilly!
Talking about Futuristic, they are way ahead of time. That alone we Chinese who are from outside of China knew decades ago. Most western countries feel threatened by China, that is why they are talking bad. You have been in Asia for a while, you can notice most Chinese people are quite tolerance.

There's a place that you HAVE TO go to, it's the grand theater and the river bank below it, where you get the most insane night scene of probably the world. From there you'll know how cities can be sublime, and why people call her cyberpunk. Similarly you can walk through Qiansimen Bridge from north to the south, the sight is incredibly breathtaking as well.
The most interesting thing I think is getting into the small streets near residential buildings. You never know where they lead you, that’s really fun! If you still there, there is one interesting building called“Hong Ding Guo Ji”, which is very famous with different types of entertainments fill in one building, you can live inside forever because the building has everything you need！There was a famous writer wrote a book for it, describe his adventure inside the building for 6 days. Sounds fun right?😁😁😁
I think you can talk to Mixue about the issue of endorsement cooperation. In China, your two families have a nickname, Snow King and Snow Queen, because Mixue means Sweet Snow. I don't know if you two like it or not.
Those scorpions, snakes and insects are foods more for men to goad or dare each other to eat.Also to appeal to curious tourists as some exotic novelty foods to try.

With one timezone, what the clock says is just an arbitrary number, civilization will adapt to sunlight,
so I could see that instead of 9-5 they are on 11-7 workday
You guys dwarf gordon chang on China Expert.
And not to forget BBC. They literally use color filter to show darkened images of China.
gordon chang is a race traitor.
Wonderful and amazing !
Thank you for sharing 👍
Cherry blossoms just like bonsai's, ramen and samurai swords were introduced to the Japan by the Chinese and Cherry blossoms actually originates from Tibet
Amazing how 30 million people can live so harmoniously, everyone just doing their own thing, enjoying life however they desire and no judging or discriminating. Chinese people are generally very friendly and respectful toward others. The West can learn a lot from them. 🥰

Cherry trees are native to China! They were introduced to Japan later along with many things, like agriculture, grains such as rice, Chinese characters, architecture, fabric and dress making, tea, chopsticks, soy sauce, soy paste, tofu, bonsai, koi fish, matcha, mochi, zen teaching …… too many more to name actually
Thanks for the info!
You need to visit Yanjin City, it's the world's narrowest city as it is built along either side of the banks of a river in a deep valley. It looks amazing.

I love love love watching you explore Chongqing because that is my destination later this year. Do you know about the ex air raid shelters that have been repurposed into hotpot restaurants and art gallery or vintage bookstore? - again a testament that the government build things for the people to enjoy. I would love to see you visit one or two. Not many westerners know of them so if you video your reaction in one it would be so cool. Plus I suggest you visit a hot springs - there are so many within an hour of the city.
Chinese government is very smart and has unilaterally implemented a visa-free policy for many European countries this year. First of all, it will make it easier for European businessmen investing in China to travel to and from China. Secondly, it will attract many people from Western countries to travel to China and let them see the real China.
Recently, I went to pick up a friend at Beijing Daxing International Airport and saw people from a European tour group in the robot parking lot. They were surprised to see how the robot helped people find parking spaces. . . How to deliver guest's car to parking space.

In the food street, what you think is bacon is actually pig intestines with scallions, and spicy yogurt is actually a very tender tofu with a taste similar to pudding
Already 1.5k views only 20 min after the video is published! You guys are the best!
For those who are confused ,Cities are defined by various concepts.City proper concept is one of them.Tokyo is generally considered as largest city in the world,but according to city proper concept, Chongqing is the largest city proper in the world
14:16 That's not yougurt, it is tofu pudding made of soy milk. In South, most people use to eat sweet flavor.
Like basically Panna Cotta but made with soya milk. Good source of protein.

Your videos are powerful! It was fun!❤❤❤
In chongqing, there is at least one elevater for cars. You can call a taxi to try it out. It looked so cool.
Before Chongqing became a municipality directly under the Central Government, it was a city under the jurisdiction of Sichuan Province like Chengdu. Now it has become a municipality directly under the central government, with the same administrative level as the province and under the direct management of the central government.
Incredible right? We have mentioned this in the vlog btw 😉
Actually, municipality's administrative level is higher than province.
When did this happen? And why? Did Chongqing’s GDP surpassed Chengdu? Or is it geographic reason?

Great video guy's thank you xièxiè

The rail of Liziba Station is actually not contact or built upon the building, so the residents in the building would feel nothing. A few noise maybe, but no shaking or anything.
When I was a kid, the liberation monument was the tallest building in that area. And now...
重庆地下都是空的，有几十公里地下街。步行会很漫长。我建议你们打车进去，拍一段视频，把车开进电梯，再回到路面，那一定会是新奇的体验。
Such an incredible and unique city!! 👍👍👍
中国有无数个这样的城市每个城市都有他的独特性😂😂
I recommend you guys try to get the highest building to view the whole City at night, because I have been there last month and I'm sure you guys will get a great surprise , wishing you having a great time.
There is always so much development because China fundamental priorty is economic development in which capital will be directed to area where they can raise the standard of living of the ppl, like parks, public facilities, infrastructure and then when completed add in more projects to make that original project even better and generating non stop revenue. It is continual process and not many countries can do it.China csn because every year, they produce so much expertise in such projects, like engineers, construction / urban development managers or personnel , architects, and plentiful of workers in all fields, China can also direct entire nation resources and utilise to whichever projects they want.
Every time the reaction you see mixue is hilarious😂😂 I recommend the peach one for u to order next time
So much food, yet so little obesity, I think it is balanced and not processed.
The food is incredible mmmmmm 🥰
是的在中国肥胖人群很少，人们普遍认为肥胖是丑的是不健康的所以大多数人都会尽量控制好体重，而且中国高热量的食物不多，西方高热量食物太普遍了汉堡，披萨，热狗，面包等，相对来说中国食物选择性可能是西方的几百倍，所以人们选择健康的低脂的食物
@@龚术 中国人均蔬菜是西方的十倍起步，，，有的国家中国能超过二十倍，西方相对中国而言普遍高甜高油高脂
@@龚术that’s a lie. Chinese not as healthy as Europeans and life expectancy way off. Fast food all over China and 34th ranked for food standards. Much better but still average at best. Men in China are not exactly gladiator warriors are they.
@@龚术need more sport at school
ChongQing‘s street and skyline is like HongKong in someway
on Hong Kong island they are also building up the hills/mountains.
Not all people dare to eat these foods, like you said, some people who like a challenge will try these foods, most of them are fried and really delicious
It is all a question of having competent leadership, a system that works and a population of hardworking people ....
Thank you for sharing the truth❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
At 11：30, the item that looks like a radish is actually pig intestines on the outside and green onions inside. Some people really love this combination. At 14:10, that’s tofu pudding made from soybeans, which is found in both northern and southern China. In the south, they add sweet sauce, while in the north, they add salty sauce. But here in Chongqing, they add spicy sauce! You should give it a try, haha. The texture is like ice cream. In fact, I have previously spoken to residents living near Liziba Station, and they mentioned that the light rail doesn’t really bother them much, whether it’s the vibrations or the noise. The impact is almost negligible. The main issue now is that too many people come here to take photos! Haha. By the way, I’m really looking forward to your next video on Chongqing’s night scenes!
I miss Chongqing. One of the best places in the world!
Need help on translation? Around 9:40 in the video, the lovely lady said to Libby "好漂亮, 好美, 美女!", meaning "So beautiful! So pretty! Pretty lady." Around 14:15, the white "yogurt" is tofu's cousin 豆腐脑 Dou Fu Nao. People in northern part of China eat it with salty source while people in the south part have it with sugar. BTW, were you there on May 1? That's the national holiday in China. Maybe that's why so many people were there.
五一劳动节啦嘿嘿
After climbing stairs everyday you'd need to go to a SPA to recuperate. Other citiesbare not built like Chingqing
The pastry you guys had called GuoKui, it is a very a popular local street food
I've only watched less than 3 minutes so far, but I got to comment first and finish the video after
What an amazing looking city. Makes me a little jealous that I haven't had the opportunity to go there and see it for myself so far. Hopefully one day
Btw, can't help but think what an awesome location those streets would be for a movie about a zombie outbreak. So many buildings for the character to run into, or for zombies to run out from
I really enjoy watching videos of the Mi Xue couple. They have been to more Chinese cities than I have (I am Chinese, from Guangzhou, and it has been raining continuously recently 😭)
又开始暴雨了，4月份几乎天天暴雨😢😢
6:53 This skyscraper looked exactly like this in July last year, and even at that time I was susprised no one was working on it, no workers no sound, I guess this project is related to Evergrand... But no worries someone will complete it, it's best property in chongqing 🌸
My family really likes your China series! After watching your videos, I found that your way of traveling is very suitable for self-driving tours in China, because China is very large. Foreigners with driver's licenses can apply for a Chinese temporary driver's license. You can ask the locals or find out online. It's very easy! I hope to see you start a video series of self-driving tours in China!🥰
I Was Actually Very Dissapointed to See China Follow Detroit in the 1990's... ...The Problem with "Automobiles" is they are "Useless" until You Can Reach your Destination and Deposit them in a Parking Lot! Trains, & Busses Deliver People Much More Efficiently... ...& Don't Need Massive Parking Lots "Devouring" So Much "Premium" Real Estate in the Urban Playground!!! Who ever Visited a City to "Tour" a Parking Lot!!!😢😂
Wonderful video, thank you very much for sharing it with us
Thank you very much, my friend! Britain is also a beautiful country, and I hope the friendship between our two peoples can last for a long time
Thank you❤🙏 very2 informative guys ❤🙏🙏
‘Mixue couple’ what a cute nickname 🧋
Love it 🥰
You guys just roaming around from one city to another in China. But China has so much more to offer in the country side you guys are missing out big time! E.g Chengdu is a good starting point to explore nearby beautiful Leshan Giant Buddha,
qingcheng and emei mountain. Xi'an is a good starting point to climb huashan mountain. In Beijing, you didn't visit Summer Palace either, which in my opinion, made you not complete your visit to those famous Chinese cities yet! (Those big and modern Chinese cities all look kind of similar after all, what makes them different from one to another is actually lies in the country side)
So true. China is definitely not completed if you guys have not explored its beautiful country side
I'm glad you had a great time in China. Welcome to come again next time! I like your vlog very much
❤❤❤ informative from this lovely pair.
Love you couple and have fun in China. A advise for better taking metro or bus, if you two are using iPhone, actually there are lots of transit card of many different cities of China in iPhone Wallet, and many of those card can be used not just that city but actually almost all city in China (if it have a red&green "china T-union" logo on it), so you can add one and use it in the following days within whole China so that you no need to spend time to buy ticket everytime, either metro or bus. According my test, I recommend you to add Shanghai Transit Card, it can be recharge in credit card. And again, have a very good trip!
Thanks for the useful suggestions 🥰
Amazing video clip. Done spontaneously, naturally n narrated from the heart. Wishing both of u a wonderful n memorable trip,
你们好，非常喜欢你们的视频，希望在中国玩的愉快！另外，国内的粉丝称你们为蜜雪夫妇（MiXue couple）😂，这是个亲切而且充满善意的称呼。来自中国河北的问候！持续关注中！❤

You guys look like two adventure game players. Now you enter the new game instance! Also do not forget your daily task, Mixue🎉❤ Enjoy your new game and new trip!
32:07 It's called 锅盔 (guo kui) not Roujiamo since the pie is not cut open. It's more like meat stuffed pastry.
简单来说就是个肉饼😂
The city itself is an engineering marvel
1:05:03 Apparently the people who live in the building can’t hear the train passing through. It was designed so there’s no noise issue. And apparently this train passing through building came to be because licenses for both the train and building were issued at the same time so they decided why not accommodate both. That’s cooperation.
Chongqing is indeed an amazing mega city second to none! By the way, the hawker in the street selling what you said Yogurt but actually is Soy-beancurd, Can be eaten with sugary syrub or soy-sauce with chilly!
Talking about Futuristic, they are way ahead of time. That alone we Chinese who are from outside of China knew decades ago. Most western countries feel threatened by China, that is why they are talking bad. You have been in Asia for a while, you can notice most Chinese people are quite tolerance.

There's a place that you HAVE TO go to, it's the grand theater and the river bank below it, where you get the most insane night scene of probably the world. From there you'll know how cities can be sublime, and why people call her cyberpunk. Similarly you can walk through Qiansimen Bridge from north to the south, the sight is incredibly breathtaking as well.
No BBC filter，wonderful！！！ welcome to china，have fun ！！！
The bread you guys had is called "Guo Kui". It is similar but different from "Rou Jia Mo".
Awesome guys, can’t get enough from your video. Thank youuuuu❤. Oh, she is so lovely and you are handsome too 😂❤
The most interesting thing I think is getting into the small streets near residential buildings. You never know where they lead you, that’s really fun! If you still there, there is one interesting building called“Hong Ding Guo Ji”, which is very famous with different types of entertainments fill in one building, you can live inside forever because the building has everything you need！There was a famous writer wrote a book for it, describe his adventure inside the building for 6 days. Sounds fun right?😁😁😁
Hong en temple in Chongqing is stunning, please check it in the evening!!
I think you can talk to Mixue about the issue of endorsement cooperation. In China, your two families have a nickname, Snow King and Snow Queen, because Mixue means Sweet Snow. I don't know if you two like it or not.
we absolutely love the name haha 😍
Those scorpions, snakes and insects are foods more for men to goad or dare each other to eat.Also to appeal to curious tourists as some exotic novelty foods to try.
重庆真的很美丽 ，未来科幻之城
I come from Chongqing, China. Welcome friends from all over the world to come and play in Chongqing, China....
Man o man what a place to go visit! Maybe even live there. greetings from Toronto
Libby and Taz, thank you for sharing and showing the world of your trips. Ppl could see and compare to draw conclusions. Western MSM can’t fool all ppl all the the time.
5:35 Cherry blossoms originates in China... Japanese brought it to Japan and made it popular. In China, we have much more beautiful flowers. e.g. the national flower is 牡丹, cherry blossoms is not even among top 10.
Sounds a bit petty. Only china has beautiful flowers? I thought Chinese monks brought cherries to Japan?
The only drawback of Chongqing is that it is not friendly to parkour enthusiasts.
说不定会从1楼莫名其妙掉到22楼底下😂😂
That's a good one😂
I went to Chongqing before, i highly recommend you guys visit there too
Recommend your next tourist attraction in Chongqing is Zengjiayan Cliff Trail
