@@BackpackerBen Ben, Did you try the mushroom hotpot in Kunming? It’s probably the closest you can get to a "high" in China-just cook it a bit less! But be careful; undercooking can be dangerous, much like other risky options.
DONT GET Saily if you are travelling to China, I came to china 7 days ago and it doesn't work for me 70% of the time, I just randomly lose connection. And when it actually works it's horribly slow
For those of you who've never been to China or about to go to China, here is a little tip. There's no tip culture, set up your phone with Alipay or Wechat Pay when you arrives, you won't survive without your phone; take Didi or Gaode for Taxi to save money, the illegal taxi might charge you for more; don't book a hotel that's far away from your destination, because the city is larger that you might expect; finally, go to Beijing for history, Shanghai for Modernazation, Shenzhen for technology, Chengdu and Chongqing for leisure and food. 144 hours travel policy is open, welcome everyone.
Policies from China,which called "Visa-Free Transit Policies for Foreign Nationals". You can stay 144 hours or 72 hours in specific cities in China.@@VhectorDesignStudio
China fascinates me so much, and that city just kept blowing my mind! The engineering and architecture was incredible. I've been loving this series so much!! Makes me want to go visit
I was in Chongqing, and loved it there. Chongqing is one of the stunning cities in China. It would blow your mind if you spent more time to find out about this city.
I’m glad to see you doing China videos. I’ve lived in Shanghai for the last 4 years and absolutely love it here. The way of life, cost of living and financial comfort that comes from living here is great. But people back home in the UK still think of China as a 3rd world country that’s dangerous to live in and that’s not the case at all. I’ve felt safer here than I have ever done in the UK.
The only thing that makes me feel uneasy is standing out as a foreigner. Less so in Shanghai as that city has so many there. But absolutely, the cost of living and I believe they are more advanced than us already.
@ you definitely do stand out as a foreigner. And being 6”6’ doesn’t help with me either. But you kinda get used to it. I rarely get people staring at me anymore in my local community because they are so used to seeing me. But during the Chinese holidays when many people from around China visit Shanghai you notice it a lot more. But cost of living is so much cheaper. Rent can still be fairly expensive in the city Center. But everything else is so cheap. 30p to use the subway, £3 for a 30 minute taxi ride. Food shop for a week less than £100 for a family of 3. It allows so much more money for things like days out, activities and holidays.
@ you think all these friendly people, with all these clean streets and awesome tech is all propaganda 😆😆 come on man, you insult your own intelligence.
Ben, just so you know, there are "converted" hotels across many Chinese major cities like the one you stayed at in Chongqing. They are not the traditional hotels where you would normally find a fancy gate and lobby on the ground floor to check in, but they were converted from ordinary high rise flats and because such a hotel is normally run by small business owners, they can't rent the entire building but only a few floors and converted them into "hotel" rooms. This is much like an airbnb or service apartment whatever you would like to call it. Also, an elevator in these high rises normally go to certain floors only to separate traffic and save people's time.
I guess you are talking about homestay apartments. It’s not recommended for short lodging because their environments are quite different, the expensive homestay are quite good, but the cheap ones may lack of service and quality😂. low budget recommendations: hotel >homestay Enough budget recommendations: homestay >hotel Welcome to Chongqing. The city reside in mountain slopes. ❤
Brilliant video, I’ve seen this city on tik tok so great to get a tour. Loving what you are showing of China.. looks an amazing place to travel. People seem so nice and friendly
just imagine the enormous amount of concrete, bricks, and iron beams that have been used to build up this brutal cosmopolitan. your jaw will drop in a jiffy. God bless the Chinese and their extraordinary structures. I take my hat off to them.
Chongqing is a city where even navigation apps will get lost. Its Chinese nickname is Mountain City, which means a mega city built on a mountain. This makes it a city with many layers.
Wonder what nationality she is? I get a very slight hint of Hungarian accent in the way she speaks, but she can easily also be Slovakian or Czech. Eastern European, definitely though,
Chongqing city is well-known in China and anyone who knows about China in WWII. China government moved to Chongqing , after Japan took the captial city Nanjing of China. Chongqing became the capital in the war for China till Japan was defeated in 1945.
Yes! Chongqing is wild! Even as a Civil Engineer living in Hong Kong for 15 years, CQ still blew me away. The 2D devices and maps we currently have simply can’t deal with the complexity of CQ! ❤
Another awesome video of your travels in China. Shong Shin. Interesting city & I did find it interesting that a subway going to an apartment building. The Chinese people seem very friendly & it’s too bad our Governments can’t get along. Looking forward to the next video. ❤
For Sichuan and Chongqing people, when we are tired, we will find a massage shop to wash our feet or get a massage and relax for an hour. Very cheap~ Going to western Sichuan or Xinjiang in autumn is very, very beautiful. Almost like Switzerland.
@@gazmix589 If you can come up with such an opinion, chances are you are: 1. A victim of western propaganda. 2. There is something wrong with your brain. 3. A hypocrite.
Thank you both for going to China for all the rest of us! That city has a crazy number of people - I wouldn't enjoy it but with a guide like Seven, it might be just fine. Katarina is lovely and a pleasure to watch, as always; she is good natured even when elbowed out of a view.
I have been to china and India….only stayed a couple of days in china lol. I was on my own and totally confused. It’s great to be able to see it for real lol. Thanks for the insight from your eyes. Love watching the both of you together you complement each other. New Zealand.. I enjoyed the people of china felt safer there than when I went to India.
When traveling in Chongqing, I installed four navigation apps on my phone. However, I found that I still got lost because the terrain here was so strange.
@@MirrorMan-e5z This is massively 'opposite wrong' and Mainland Chinese will litter like it's their right and especially children and cool guys. Why say a thing about China that you just made up in your mind?
I like china and lived in CQ but Chinese and not littering sounds like a joke!!! they do this all the time... but many people clean the streets 24/7. but I still love chongqing and miss its hot springs and mountains
So you went to Chongqing and missed the Skywalk on top of Raffles Center. It's literally a walk in the open air while tethered to some rock climbing gear on top of the building that looks like Marina Bay Sands in Singapore because it was designed by the same architect - just an awesome experience.
So depressing being in the U.K.: currently there is a huge argument because we’ve said we are going to finish a 15 year old train line. China: let’s build a city for 33 million people on the side of a mountain…
Good old British moan. Good thing there's no social credit system here unlike in China. All the moaning could prevent your children from getting an education.
Loving the content, Ben. Also, shoutout to Catarina as your chemistry together is wonderful and she brings out a great energy in you. Felt weird seeing you visit my city of Peterborough, especially as I haven't been home in 6 years as I am in Vienna. Wishing you safe travels and good health to the both of you. And thank you for all the video content, much respect. Mark
I have been there twice, once for two months. It takes a while to figure it out! Everything is built on mountainsides so that's why the levels are different depending on what building your on. You walk in a building built on the hill side on the ground floor but then the others identified is farther down on the hill so your on the 12lth floor and the next building is farther down the hill so your higher up because your staying on the same level. It's a trip where the rivers meet, one is orange and one is clear. Also they have the craziest freeway interchange, it looks like your l9oking down a giant freeway tornado. When I was there last a transit bus went off the bridge into the river and unfortunately some people lost there lives thanks to a lady that got into an argument with the driver and she grabbed the steering wheel. Have a good time and watch your weak pallet with there Chongqing famous Hotpot!
Chongqing, between all the hills, and 100s of meters of tunnels to reach the subway, will keep you in shape! 😅 PS: I am speaking from personal experience cause I lived there for half a year!
i think cheap housing is why china is so successful. imagine living in berlin or london for under 300 dollar per month.. you would have so much money being pumped into the economy instead of landlords
I've been to China many times, and every vist, I find myself lining the country even more. Guilin was my last adventure, I recommend it to everyone as a place to visit at least once in your life
I’m taiwanese and I believe when next time, BBC or any skewing western media tell you why democratic India is ways better than authoritarian China, and how happy the indian people and how suppressed Chinese people are, every audiences and fans of Ben’s footages will have right answers in their heart.
You are absolutely right and spot on. 😄😃😀Yindu? OMG! BBC 💩💩💩they are just bl00dy b@stard cl0wns or are they c0rpes? Well, definitely the biased broadcasting c0rpse. And, I wonder why they are doing that because it is not of zero benefit but negative benefit for which they self-destruct. 😘😍🥰
That city left me gob-smacked. I think Tokyo is the biggest city in the world by size, but Chongqing is the largest by population. I believe in Tokyo they also have a train that goes through a building. It is crazy how countries like USA, UK, Australia etc, try to demonise China and discredit their achievements, simply because of different social and economic ideals. They should stop trying to "one up" China and embrace the country as a friend.
@@passby8070 It really is impressive especially when you look at where they were even just 40 years ago. Apparently starting from the late 70s China pulled something like 800 million people out of poverty. Incredible development.
I am an Indian, really good to see such clean and good places, India is definitely decades behind and I believe more Indians should be aware of such places so we know it's possible to have such clean and organised places
@@willchu You live in 18th century...visit hitech Cities of India in every major states u have many we dont create concrete jungle we make hitech City with lots of trees around n not too many sky scrapers...
Welcome to China, you guys just look like in a rush, please have more vedios and for each city you will visit! We really want to see more videos of Chinese cities! Thanks!~
Just got back from the UK and they are at least a decade or 2 ahead of us in the midwest US but this more or less is 2050 cyberpunk Night City lol china really has some wild sights it seems. Beipanjiang Bridge cost 1.02 billion ¥ and took 6 years whereas i75 in ohio between dayton and Cincinnati has been under constant construction since the 60s and prob cost billions since. Just $618 million to open a new exit off the highway currently...we dont know what we are doing.
China opening up to tourists (visa on arrival) is a genius move. Creators visit, see China with their own eyes and realize how far behind their own countries have fallen and how their politicians and media have lied to them about China.
Praising a totalitarian regime that enjoys scanning your face when you buy a bottle of milk. You must be from a country that has never experienced totalitarianism
Three of my friends visited India last year. One got serious diarrhea, one got serious diarrhea plus skin rashes, and the third got his wallet and passport stolen..... Not a place that will make tourists too happy
It's really not that confusing if you think of the topography of the land they cleverly built the city in. It's just cliffs and hills with well placed and planned buildings and bridges.
Hey Ben. Please go to more places in China and show and evaluate them objectively, thank you very much. I have always wanted to go to China, but my friend said that Chinese people are not friendly and dangerous. I have been following you for so long and I trust you very much, so I am looking forward to you expressing your true feelings. I wish you a happy trip.
welcome back to China anytime, highly recommend you to visit some small ancient towns in Guizhou, Yunan, Hunan, Jiangxi. Of course if you like city vibe come to here in Shenzhen.

imagine living in berlin or london for under 300 dollar per month.. you would have so much money being pumped into the economy instead of landlords
Governments gets 50% tax from those high rents. Wealthy people spend a lot of money abroad.
no, housing is not quite cheap for locals ,the reason is the avearge income of chinese is much lower than west countries.
Don't joke around, houses are never cheap. The vast majority of people take out loans to buy, rent, or live with their parents

@@enigma9273well, then go to India and enjoy yourself there, old kidd!! Hahaha.. hahaha.. hahaha..
That city left me gob-smacked. I think Tokyo is the biggest city in the world by size, but Chongqing is the largest by population. I believe in Tokyo they also have a train that goes through a building. It is crazy how countries like USA, UK, Australia etc, try to demonise China and discredit their achievements, simply because of different social and economic ideals. They should stop trying to "one up" China and embrace the country as a friend.
Not a train but a highway that goes through the building.
China has builded a very prosperous and advanced from almost nothing with a population of 1.4 billion people. Its just mind boggling.
Yes china home of the COVID VIRUS great place !
@@passby8070 It really is impressive especially when you look at where they were even just 40 years ago. Apparently starting from the late 70s China pulled something like 800 million people out of poverty. Incredible development.
@@BeholdItKnitstrue
Very good video. Wish you have fun in China.
I am an Indian, really good to see such clean and good places, India is definitely decades behind and I believe more Indians should be aware of such places so we know it's possible to have such clean and organised places
It is True, India will get there in time.tc
200 years behind
@@idonothavetime I think at least 100 years. Decades is too optimistic.
India is more like thousands of years behind. 😂
@@willchu You live in 18th century...visit hitech Cities of India in every major states u have many we dont create concrete jungle we make hitech City with lots of trees around n not too many sky scrapers...
Welcome to China, you guys just look like in a rush, please have more vedios and for each city you will visit! We really want to see more videos of Chinese cities! Thanks!~
Good video, man!!
Your friend Catherina is so sweet and kind. I love her (I meant that in a good way) cheers bro.
God bless you both.
Seven is a great guide... But wait until you meet Eleven!! 😅
7-11's everywhere in China.
is he going to "The Upside Down" next?
🤣🤣
China look friggin awesome…..Chongqing is literally on another level….WOWSERS …..Brilliant Vlog Ben and Kat….China is where it’s happening…..
Winnie the poo
Nice propaganda comment bot
Great video as usual. I used Saily in Cambodia recently. Easy to use and good customer service.
thx for bringing us in this wonderful series I always wanted to visit China! And bringing Cat is a good choice she is such a cheerful lady!
Chongqing shows the world an example of Vertical Urbanism.
“Ahh the food is so rubbery,”
The waiter replies “why thank you very much.” 😂
😆😆
Very smart of Kat to miss India out and join you for Vietnam and China. 😅
Excellent series so far 👍
Just got back from the UK and they are at least a decade or 2 ahead of us in the midwest US but this more or less is 2050 cyberpunk Night City lol china really has some wild sights it seems. Beipanjiang Bridge cost 1.02 billion ¥ and took 6 years whereas i75 in ohio between dayton and Cincinnati has been under constant construction since the 60s and prob cost billions since. Just $618 million to open a new exit off the highway currently...we dont know what we are doing.
Agreed, we talked about HSR from San Francisco to Los Angeles decades ago, and it’s STILL under discussion…
The United States spent $15.9 billion on this year's elections, which is enough money for China to build a 55 kilometer long super sea crossing bridge
@@yukonzhang3034 And during the same period of time, China built over 40KM HSR and we still have 0KM HSR.
China opening up to tourists (visa on arrival) is a genius move. Creators visit, see China with their own eyes and realize how far behind their own countries have fallen and how their politicians and media have lied to them about China.
Actually China is actively closing out tourist and making it travel unfriendly. They want to be isolated
Praising a totalitarian regime that enjoys scanning your face when you buy a bottle of milk. You must be from a country that has never experienced totalitarianism
Fr China and Japan feel like they're 10 years more advanced
It’s China basically sticking it to western governments (again)😂😂
我也这么认为😂
Ben is more happy and excited than he was in India and that's the truth
i think every vlogger 😁😁 they vlog in india just for the audience
@@Retronyx 🤣
absolutely
he was forced by CCP
Three of my friends visited India last year. One got serious diarrhea, one got serious diarrhea plus skin rashes, and the third got his wallet and passport stolen..... Not a place that will make tourists too happy
Opened my mind to china, nothing like I expected. Good work Ben
23:07 that drawing is really damn good!!
It's really not that confusing if you think of the topography of the land they cleverly built the city in. It's just cliffs and hills with well placed and planned buildings and bridges.
Hey Ben. Please go to more places in China and show and evaluate them objectively, thank you very much. I have always wanted to go to China, but my friend said that Chinese people are not friendly and dangerous. I have been following you for so long and I trust you very much, so I am looking forward to you expressing your true feelings. I wish you a happy trip.
I been china about 15 times ur friend speaking fluent bs.
P.s london is shitty place, druggies, nuts on the eoads and racists.
Your friend is not very well informed.
@@allykhan8594when it comes to queing in lines his friend has a point
likely that your friends are being brainwashed like the rest of the western society who have not been to China.
Very nice, I'm going to visit Beijing and Shanghai over next 2 weeks. You should come to those cities too!!
I’m afraid that drawing was pretty accurate Ben. That’s what you look like 🤣
It's not chaotic at all, you can say this city has massive population, but actually it's pretty well organised and clean.
I absolutely loved visiting Chongqing! It will def let you know if you're out of shape. lolol. Great video!
I’ve been to China about 16 times. Love it.😊
welcome back to China anytime, highly recommend you to visit some small ancient towns in Guizhou, Yunan, Hunan, Jiangxi. Of course if you like city vibe come to here in Shenzhen.

@@theridingeagtjealous westerners
@@theridingeagt who ?
@@weizhang2834maybe he is a Indian😂
It is really a nice exploration of China. Look forward to see your next station. Have any plan?
All you need is a few extra billboards and it feels like Blade Runner!!
Without the slum and danger...
He thinks MUSK is a great GUY sad sad sad
Cities in China, especially at night always remind me of Blade Runner. Thoroughly enjoyable video as always guys 😊👍
A succulent Chinese meal
The hunt is in the 4th video for the ultimate succulent Chinese meal
what was ben charges?
@joetrump2983 they weren't ready to recieve
Loved the video that cartoon artist nailed your pixie ears 😂
he went to chongqing and did basically nothing...so many things to do there that will take many days
Will be there at Chonqing this coming December. Cannot wait to fly from UK to China
I am in Chongqing, we can have a drink if you want
@@zuominzhou690 if you have plus one then sure 👍. I will be travelling with my Mrs.
@@zuominzhou690yes sure mate, are you on instagram?
Will be there in December as well. Can't wait to fly from the USA to China
Awesome video. Looking forward to the china video series. China looks pretty cool.
I live in Chongqing. Its so cheap to live here.
Looks like fun! Chaotic but fun ha
@@UnimportantAcc It's a cool place, quite convenient to live. The coffee shops in Longmenhao street is my favourite place
@@UnimportantAcc Chaotic? This is not India!
That line at the end got me cracking up, "let's get a diddy, hope it's not P Diddy that picks us up" 😂😂😂😂😂
😯😯😯😯😯
Wow, the view at 29:36 is fantastic ❤
😂😂😂 LMFAO
"Hopefully it's not P Diddy " hahaha Ben, you are hilarious, you catch me by surprise with something that makes me LoL 🤣🤣🤣
Much love to you YOUNGERZ from boring and scorching hot Phoenix Arizona 🌵 USA 🇺🇲
awesome vids brother! you have won yourself a sweetheart, great watching you 2!
Better than whole indian cities
as an Indian, I agree
Better, is always, just an opinion :) Maybe more advanced but better is just what you think about it. (Coming from northern Europe)
AtLeast create a real ID.
certainly
Add Brampton, India to it also.
* Everyone * take a shot of vodka every time Ben says Chongqing 😂😂😂 I'm absolutley rat arsed at 1pm 😂
